Drunken overage frat boy Kash Patel fires FBI agents who worked on Drumph's stolen documents case.

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by Omaha Steve (a host of the Latest Breaking News forum).

Source: CNN and MSNOW

Just heard on MSNOW and found a story on CNN.

Allegedly, he’s angry that they subpoenaed his phone records, and those of Susie Wiles. Kash claims that he saw Fat Donnie
declassify the documents he stole. Wiles was investigated because he allegedly showed her classified documents. Because of course he did.

There is speculation that big boss Donnie is angry at Patel because of the bad press over his “work trip” to Italy, so this may be a way to get back in his good graces.

the news and kept typing. When I finished, a whole bunch of new things popped up. I endeavored to fill in all the boxes as asked, well aware that I was repeating myself in some instances.

If I have made some errors, please forgive me. I shall attempt to do better in the future.

However, if you’re objecting to my categorizing of Kash Patel as an overage drunken frat boy, I’m not apologizing for that.
