So several respected MSM news sources are reporting that Kash Patel's binge drinking is getting out of hand. Hard to say what caused it, but being in so completely over his head he can't even see the sun above the surface surely must contribute.

He was never very smart to being with (like all of Trump's picks during the 2.0 s**t show), but he's just smart enough to realize the situation he's in, and that the rest of his life might very likely include a long stint in jail.

So go ahead and have another one Kash, the Epstein/Trump rape victims you've done your best to deny justice insist!

'The FBI Director Is MIA'

https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/2026/04/kash-patel-fbi-director-drinking-absences/686839/

"Several officials told me that Patel’s drinking has been a recurring source of concern across the government. They said that he is known to drink to the point of obvious intoxication, in many cases at the private club Ned’s in Washington, D.C., while in the presence of White House and other administration staff. He is also known to drink to excess at the Poodle Room, in Las Vegas, where he frequently spends parts of his weekends. Early in his tenure, meetings and briefings had to be rescheduled for later in the day as a result of his alcohol-fueled nights, six current and former officials and others familiar with Patel’s schedule told me."

If the midterms are going ahead, the Dems will win, and they've already promised to haul his a** in for hearings and impeachment proceedings.

So unless Trump finally succeeds in subverting the will of the people, come November his days are numbered.

Patel having passed out, I mean password, problems

Congressman Ted Lieu is absolutely correct. But if trying to instigate a coup on live television or being credible accused of raping minors doesn't get you fired, surely being a drunk won't cut it?

This is an incredibly low end, low quality, bottom of the barrel man, with incredibly minor qualifications for the position that he's currently occupying. Reminds me a little bit of his cohort Pete.

Don definitely likes to pick from the low end of the spectrum, perhaps it makes him feel like he's a bit more intelligent when he's around such nitwits.

Patel is a disgrace but he certainly not more of a disgrace than Pete or Pam, JD or Don. They are all street trash.

Patel always struck me as someone you would want to avoid, for some reason !

Like most on here?

Wonder if the heavy drinking gives him that wall eye or maybe his mommie dropped him on his noggin when he was a baby….regardless I’m thinking he’s going to be the next distraction sacrifice ……. hope he has his pardon allready he’s gonna need it I suspect.

Glad you posted this, Im sure when he files the defamation suit his attorneys will be scouring the net for things like this, especially in light of possible Chinese involvement.

Because he's dark?

Remember when the speaker of the house was so drunk she drew eyebrows halfway up her forehead?

And they ran a Presidential candidate that was so brahms and liszt she just wobbled back and forth cackling?

Any of the forum syndromers bother calling drunken-ness out back then? Nope, it was censored🤣

Patel and Hegseth are about even odds for the next "get thrown under the bus" maneuver. Then Bondi. They are all serpents.

Thats why they hate him even more. Hes dark and supports Trump so he is a race traitor who commits thoughtcrime.

Dont forget that guy that chugged beer in college that AOC falselyband without evidence of being in a rape gang, Supreme Justice Kavanaugh.

Come to think of it, its starting to seem like the deranged left have a nasty habit if trying to smear effective politicians as alcoholics. These smears are best ignored.

They have a habit of labeling them as sexual predators, right Eric?

Ah don't tell me - more of the forum censorship that you won't tell any one about? More things you won't give examples of when asked? More mysterious nonsense?

Not as dark as some of my friends.

No one in his/her right mind---that leaves out MAGAs---actually thinks this will go to trial.

Can you imagine the "discovery"? Bar tabs, credit card records, flight logs, service staff testifying under oath....

The woman who wrote the piece in the Atlantic isn't stupid like Trump and his Carnival People Administration. She has a dozen or more witnesses, and she is well aware of Trump's penchant for threatening lawsuits. She obviously has the receipts and will produce them if this moves toward court.

Patel also likely has few friends in the bureau. He fired everyone who was close to Comey and McCabe. He fired everyone who knew anything about the Mar-a-Lago classified docs theft. He fired everyone who investigated the 6 January 2021 terrorists. The line of bureau agents willing to testify against Patel will be longer than one of the original iPhone debut lines. Patel will also be getting sued personally for firing all those agents for reasons unrelated to doing a proper job.

Patel should shut up and hope this goes away quietly; otherwise Susie Wiles is going to make sure he's fired.

NB The Atlantic primary owner is Laurene Powell Jobs so there won't one of those LOL lawyer-up posts.

Is that so? Impressive, Kash is diversifying. He used to be paid by the Russians.

'Kash Patel was paid by Russian filmmaker with Kremlin ties, documents show'

https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/2025/02/07/patel-fbi-russia-lopatonok/

https://archive.ph/eN6jD

"Kash Patel, President Donald Trump’s nominee to be FBI director, was paid $25,000 last year by a film company owned by a Russian national who also holds U.S. citizenship and has produced programs promoting “deep state” conspiracy theories and anti-Western views advanced by the Kremlin, according to a financial disclosure form Patel submitted as part of his nomination process and other documents.

Documents obtained by The Washington Post show that Patel received the money from Global Tree Pictures, a Los Angeles-based company run by Igor Lopatonok, a filmmaker whose previous projects include a pro-Russian influence campaign that received money from a fund created by Russian President Vladimir Putin."

Got it. Russians. The Dems let that pass during confirmation, huh.

Nice typical misogyny. Trump haters are like that.

Jealous of success rears its head: lets compare the livess of a respected reporter and a message board neo-national socialist that tells stories about himself under multiple identities....

Just so we are absolutely clear here, are you @Yagoda claiming that the FBI agents fired by Kas Patel are/were corrupt?
