Kash Patel, a former Trump administration official and potential candidate for FBI Director, has publicly stated that he does not maintain an "enemies list" nor does he intend to seek retribution if appointed. In an interview with Fox News, Patel emphasized his commitment to serving the country and the Constitution, focusing on protecting Americans from threats both foreign and domestic. He dismissed claims by some Democrats and media outlets that he would use the FBI to target political adversaries, asserting that his priority would be to ensure the FBI operates with integrity and focuses on national security.
