'Who sent it?': Rep. Frank Mrvan grills Kash Patel over controversial email to FBI agents

FBI director Kash Patel will testify on Thursday before the Senate Appropriations Committee on the agency’s budget for the next fiscal year. The hearing comes a day after Patel told a House panel that the White House’s budget request would not be sufficient enough to fund the FBI, asking appropriators to reject a more than $500 million proposed cut in favor of an increased budget. The request comes amid President Trump’s push to overhaul the federal workforce and cut government spending. “The skinny budget is a proposal, and I’m working through the appropriations process to explain why we need more than what has been proposed,” the director said, drawing confusion from lawmakers who were accustomed to agency heads defending their budget.

@gerrisperatos2767

MY GOD, WE HAVE IDIOTS IN KEY POSITIONS OF THE GOVT. GOD HELP US ALL, ONLY 3.9 YRS. TO GO.

@Dapper_Dean

Kash Patel is faking it until he makes it. What a stupid clown. 😂😂😂😂

@renatecox7673

I would ask him for a list of all the cases he has worked on in the last 100 days?

@everettcrutchfield6951

He isn't going to give you anything to your questions

@louisestyles879

Email sent from DOJ: Must be from from Pam Bondi. He wasn't very direct with his answers.....It must be for a reason.....

@nobody687

He lies quickly.

@lifeonthefarm6001

He has no clue wtf he’s doing.

@MaryBowerman-m2i

This guy never seems to know anything he keeps saying I don’t know I’ll get back to you. When do we get to hear what he said when he got back to this congressman? This guy is a complete idiot and he’s running our FBI? Very scary mistakes will be made lives will be lost
