I urge you to reject Kash Patel's nomination to lead the FBI based on his questionable business ventures promoting conspiracy theories and disinformation. As detailed in reports, Patel has profited from peddling products like supplements falsely claiming to "reverse" COVID-19 vaccines and children's books vilifying political opponents using offensive caricatures. Such actions undermine truth and sow division, qualities antithetical to leading an agency that must remain apolitical and fact-based. Furthermore, Patel's inflammatory rhetoric attacking the FBI as the "deep state" raises doubts about his ability to restore trust and integrity to the bureau after years of turbulence. The FBI director must be a unifying voice dedicated to upholding the rule of law without partisan agenda. Patel's record suggests he lacks the independence and judgment required for this critical role overseeing federal law enforcement. I implore you to elevate candidates committed to truth over politics.
