The National Archives and Records Administration(NARA) found in 2021 that Trump had taken presidential documents with him to his home in Florida after leaving office. After Trump returned some documents, NARA found others were still missing, including some that were highly classified. NARA referred the matter to the FBI, and after requests and a subpoena to return the documents went unheeded, the FBI entered Trump's home under a search warrant to retrieve them. Patel publicly asserted that Trump had declassified broad sets of sensitive documents before leaving the White House. In October 2022, Patel was summoned to testify before a federal grand jury investigating the matter, but he declined to answer questions by invoking his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination. Patel was represented in the matter by lawyer Stanley Woodward.[43] The Justice Department sought unsuccessfully to persuade a federal judge to compel Patel's testimony, whereupon he was granted immunity to testify, which he did on November 4, 2022.

Patel has made clear his intentions in interviews as to what he would like to do if given a chance, and it doesn't take a genius to see where all of it leads once they get control of DOJ.
-They’ll probably starve the civil rights division or anything that’s involved with investigating right-wing domestic terrorism groups that have white nationalist ties.
-They’ll punish or push out anyone that was involved with investigating his previous administration and him personally, or could potentially be seen as "disloyal" and could be the source for any future investigation.
-They’ll use the FBI to investigate anyone they deem an “enemy” to Trump, and they’ll either justify it slowly, little-by-little or go full blast in conflating negativity towards Trump as being a potential “threat” to the country itself.

How would we even be able to tell? It seems it is already terribly politically incorrect to suggest that white right wingers could be terrorists.

A whole cabinet of people loyal to Trump above loyal to the US. That's what happens when traitors get elected.
Yes, the Royal Court is gathering for the coronation.
Patel did author The Plot Against the King
So, yeah.
