Sarah Fitzpatrick, the reporter behind the bombshell exposé about Kash Patel’s alleged conduct, said she stands by her story after he threatened to sue

White House officials are “openly discussing” who will be the next FBI director amid a bombshell report about current leader Kash Patel’s alleged excessive drinking and other concerning conduct.

Patel has threatened to sue The Atlantic after journalist Sarah Fitzpatrick’s report alleged the FBI director is deeply paranoid about being fired and often drinks to excess, alarming officials at the agency and beyond. Fitzpatrick responded that she stands “by every word of this reporting” and told MS NOW: “We have excellent attorneys.”

    We saw him pounding beers when he was partying with hockey players in Milan. I mean, maybe that’s kind of normal behavior for a late teenager or someone in their early 20s. Kash Patel is 46 and heading up the FBI.

    Sorry, I think most people expect someone in that job to be a little more of an adult?

    What the fuck was he even doing there in the first place?
