I’m writing to urge the Senator to oppose any effort to confirm Kash Patel as FBI Director.
Kash Patel’s appointment would fundamentally undermine the rule of law and the integrity of our federal institutions. He has openly declared his intention to use the FBI as a political weapon, targeting journalists, government officials, and nonprofit organizations. He even said, “We will go out and find the conspirators not just in government, but in the media.”
The FBI needs strong, unbiased leadership to rebuild public trust and address its shortcomings— Americans deserve that, too. But Patel’s vision is transforming the FBI into a tool solely to advance Donald Trump’s agendas.
Even Trump’s former Attorney General, Bill Barr, rejected Patel’s appointment as second-in-command, recognizing the dangers Patel represents.
Confirming Kash Patel would cement the weaponization of our justice system. Senators, regardless of party, must oppose this. You have sworn an oath to protect and uphold the Constitution. Voting for Patel is a clear violation of that oath.
I urge the Senator to stand up for the rule of law and protect our democratic institutions by opposing any effort to confirm Kash Patel as FBI Director. Thanks.
