Kash Patel is now taking credit for solving the case for the killing of Kirk.

NBC: FBI Director Kash Patel criticized for his actions and posts during Charlie Kirk shooting investigation
The FBI leader’s decisions to dine at an exclusive restaurant hours after the assassination and to criticize Utah officials raise questions about his leadership, current and former officials say.

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/justice-department/kash-patel-criticized-actions-posts-charlie-kirk-shooting-investigation

On Saturday, the day after Tyler Robinson, 22, was arrested in connection with the killing, Patel said on X that the FBI had solved the case by overruling other law enforcement agencies.

“Against all law enforcement recommendations, we demanded the video footage and enhanced stills of the suspect be released to the public,” Patel wrote. “Robinson’s father, who ultimately turned him in to authorities, told law enforcement that he recognized his son in that released video.”

****************

A must see. https://www.democraticunderground.com/132288261 Ben Meisales. Patel was and still is
useless.

Everything Patel says there are complete lies. Kash went out to a fancy dinner on the day of the shooting,
looked like he was going to shit himself when he and Bongino went to Utah, and it wasn’t the FBI who
solved the case because the shooter’s own father turned him in via his pastor and local law enforcement.

Patel consulted a paramentalist to find out the guy’s identity, and then hypnotized him via long-distance hypnotic suggestion to turn himself in, and to claim that his father talked him into it. Smart move, since even Patel correctly guessed that his unique super power of hypnotizing strangers from 2000 miles away might not be believed by everybody he told about it.

because his dad told him to do it.

Patel is a sad individual. Probably thinks he deserves a bronze star and a purple heart too.
