Tell your senators: Oppose Trump's dangerous pick of Kash Patel for FBI Director

Action Network.org

As he fills out his incoming clown car of an administration, Trump's asinine nominees have ranged from absolutely unqualified to ideological nightmares.
But he might have just made his scariest hire yet.

Trump has announced he's selected Kash Patel to lead the FBI.

A reminder - directors of the FBI serve for 10 years and the mission of the bureau is to protect and defend the United States against terrorists and foreign intelligence threats and to uphold and enforce the criminal laws of the United States.

But instead, Patel is one of Trump's most loyal enforcers and a conspiracy theorist -- a 2020 election denier who's main focus is to purge the so-called "Deep State."
He recently publicly pledged to investigate and prosecute Trump's enemies in the media and government.

Rubio and Scott don't pay any attention to me, but they did add me to their mailing lists.
