FBI Director Kash Patel is blasting the media and promising he’ll be vindicated again over his discovery of Russiagate documents.
Some media reports have scoffed at his revelations he discovered “burn bags” of papers that shed new light on the affair.
Now on X, Patel says he proved the Hillary Clinton campaign’s bogus “Steele Dossier” attacking then-candidate Donald Trump in 2016 was fake, and says he’ll be proved right again over Russiagate.
Last month National Intelligence Director Tulsi Gabbard brought new attention to the Obama administration’s manipulation of intelligence reports to construct a narrative of collusion between Russia and presidential candidate, later president-elect Trump. She announced that information documenting that manipulation has been sent to the Justice Department for possible prosecution.
Patel provided support for Gabbard, announcing he had discovered more documentation, posting “Now I’m the FBI Director: We just uncovered burn bags/room filled with hidden Russia Gate files, including the Durham annex, and declassified them. Once again, I released the prior FBI’s own documents and exposed the truth. The same media is calling me a liar again.”
