Demand the Immediate Removal of FBI Director Kash Patel
To: Sen. Moreno, Sen. Husted, Rep. Beatty
From: A verified voter in Columbus, OH
May 25
The documented pattern of behavior by FBI Director Kash Patel demonstrates a severe collapse of institutional competency and a blatant disregard for statutory boundaries. I am writing to demand that you publicly call for his immediate removal from office. This demand is rooted in three verified failures of governance: 1. Misappropriation of Federal Assets: The recent investigation confirming Director Patel utilized an FBI Gulfstream V aircraft for personal travel to a concert is not an isolated incident. It is part of a heavily scrutinized, taxpayer-funded pattern of abuse that includes a "VIP snorkeling" excursion at Pearl Harbor, trips to a luxury hunting retreat, a Scottish golfing vacation with friends, and a trip to the February 2026 Milan Olympics where official security justifications were used as a pretext for locker-room partying, prompting formal ethics complaints. Combined with reports of deploying federal agents for unauthorized civilian transportation, this constitutes a gross extraction of the public treasury and a direct violation of federal ethics statutes. Law enforcement assets are not private amenities. 2. National Security Vulnerabilities: The March 2026 breach of Director Patel's personal communications by the Iranian-linked cyber group Handala exposes a critical operational security vulnerability at the highest levels of our national security apparatus. An intelligence chief who fails to maintain basic cybersecurity protocols—even after being explicitly warned by intelligence officials that he was a target—jeopardizes the safety of the nation. Furthermore, his aggressive and legally questionable pursuit of citizens for using encrypted communication tools demonstrates an authoritarian disregard for constitutional privacy boundaries, rather than a genuine focus on verified national security threats. 3. Evasion of Oversight and Institutional Decay: Ongoing congressional inquiries, the unprecedented and systematic purge of senior ranks and critical counterintelligence agents, and credible allegations of statistical manipulation indicate a broader refusal to comply with constitutional oversight. By weaponizing personnel decisions and targeting agents based on past apolitical investigations, Director Patel is actively dismantling the bureau's operational integrity. The role of FBI Director demands unimpeachable judgment and strict adherence to the law; Director Patel has demonstrated neither. I urge you to introduce or support a formal resolution demanding the executive branch remove Director Patel immediately, and to initiate impeachment proceedings should the administration refuse to act. I will be monitoring your response to this unprecedented breach of public trust.
