A former federal prosecutor slammed FBI Director Kash Patel for putting the safety of all Americans at risk in his latest security scandal.
On Monday, reporting revealed that Patel had assigned an FBI detail to provide security for his country music singer girlfriend, Alexis Wilkins. The assignment follows other reporting that indicates Patel used an FBI airplane to visit his girlfriend in Nashville and attend a UFC fight.
Glenn Kirschner, a former Assistant U.S. Attorney in Washington, D.C., discussed Patel’s latest scandal on a new episode of “The Legal Breakdown” with progressive YouTuber Brian Tyler Cohen.
Kirschner mentioned a report from MS NOW where a senior FBI official said, “There is no legitimate justification for this. This is a clear abuse of position and misuse of government resources.”
“It endangers national security and puts all Americans at risk,” Kirschner said. “But do we think Kash Patel, Pam Bondi, or Donald Trump care one wit about the safety of the American people? They have shown time and again that they don’t; that is not their motivating concern.”
“You know it reminds me of the old saying, to the victor go the spoils,” he continued. “Usually, that refers to when one side of an armed conflict wins a war. They get to steal and pillage all they want from the other side, from the side that was defeated in the armed conflict. That’s what it feels like here.”
