The bombshell report by The New York Post alleged that sources within the FBI had called Patel “in over his head” and his deputy, Dan Bongino, “something of a clown.”

“Patel apparently did not have his own FBI raid jacket with him and refused to step from the plane without wearing one,” the report, citing a highly respected agent, read.

FBI agents who were working on Kirk’s case “had to stop and ask around to find an FBI raid jacket — a medium-sized one — that would fit,” and eventually Patel was given a jacket belonging to a female agent.

However, according to the report, the FBI director complained that “two areas on the upper sleeves did not have Velcro patches attached” and refused to leave the plane until those areas were patched, prompting agents to remove their own to loan to him.

    Any info on that? I think there’s plenty of real shit out there that we don’t need to make things up to criticize them over, so I’d rather not spread this without any kind of corroboration. She seems like a regular conservative ghoul who sucks at art but wants to be famous for acting and singing, and failing that she’ll try to be a hot podcaster, and failing that she’ll be a trad wife to a bonafide party member.

      Yeah, let’s be careful with spreading misinformation about Nazis. You can only defeat fascism with honestly and kindness.
