Clarence Page: Kash Patel and his 'bureau of intimidation'

^{Published on 2024-12-16 06:40:58 - MSN}

When Merriam- Webster chose" polarization" as the word of the year for 2024, the timing was dramatic for many of us who make our living through words. That observation was confirmed further by President-elect Donald Trump' s choice of his long-standing political loyalist Kash Patel to head the FBI.

The article by Clarence Page discusses Kash Patel, a former Trump administration official known for his aggressive tactics and loyalty to Donald Trump. Patel, who has been involved in various controversies, is described as a key figure in what Page calls the "Bureau of Intimidation," a metaphorical agency where Trump allies allegedly use intimidation to push their political agendas. Patel's background includes roles in the National Security Council, the Department of Defense, and as chief of staff to Acting Defense Secretary Christopher Miller. His actions, particularly around the 2020 election and the January 6 Capitol riot, have drawn scrutiny for promoting conspiracy theories and attempting to influence government operations in favor of Trump. Page critiques Patel's approach as part of a broader strategy to undermine democratic institutions by instilling fear and promoting loyalty over competence.
