Kash Patel Viral Video | Kash Patel Denies Allegations of Drinking During Senate Budget Hearing
FBI Director Kash Patel angrily lashed out at a Democratic lawmaker at a budget hearing Tuesday, calling allegations that he drinks excessively on the job and has been unreachable to his staff at times "unequivocally, categorically false." "I will not be tarnished by baseless allegations and fraudulent statements from the media," Patel told Sen. Chris Van Hollen during a testy exchange that began when the Maryland Democrat confronted him about a recent article in The Atlantic magazine that painted an unflattering portrait of his leadership of the nation's premier federal law enforcement agency.
