Former Defense Department and National Security Council official Kash Patel has emerged as a top contender for the position of CIA Director within a potential Trump administration, according to multiple reports. Patel, a close ally of former President Donald Trump, is also being considered for other top national security roles, including FBI Director and positions within the Department of Justice. Known for his desire to challenge the so-called 'Deep State,' Patel aims to implement significant changes if appointed, such as establishing a 24/7 declassification office. He plans to release classified files related to the JFK assassination, the September 11 attacks, Jeffrey Epstein's black book, the Russiagate investigation, and information about the January 6 pipe bomber.
