You, incoming FBI Director Kash Patel, are someone who has carved all Americans into worthless enemies and pristine loyalists.
The article from Slate discusses the potential appointment of Kash Patel, a former Trump administration official, to a high-ranking position within the FBI or another intelligence agency if Donald Trump were to win the 2024 presidential election. Patel, known for his loyalty to Trump and his involvement in controversial actions during the Trump administration, including the handling of classified information and the events leading up to January 6, 2021, is seen as a figure who could significantly alter the operations of these agencies to align more closely with Trump's political agenda. Critics fear that his appointment would lead to a politicization of intelligence and law enforcement, potentially undermining their independence and integrity. The piece highlights concerns about the implications of such a move, suggesting it could lead to a MAGA (Make America Great Again) transformation of these institutions, prioritizing loyalty to Trump over traditional norms of nonpartisanship and professionalism.
