Trump names loyalist Kash Patel to serve as FBI director

Jump

  • 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.

  • In 2005, he was convicted of illegal campaign contributions, tax evasion, and witness tampering, and was sentenced to two years' imprisonment, which he served in the Federal Prison Camp, Montgomery. As a convicted felon, he was also disbarred in three states. He later received a pardon issued by his son's father-in-law President Donald Trump on December 23, 2020. Kushner has donated significant amounts to Trump's campaigns. Previously, he was a major Democratic party donor.

  • That’s completely understandable, but the title should be just that. Oversights like this lead to a distrust in the media/government because the mixed messaging. People see cost and think price; which is not saying the same as cost adjusted for inflation.

  • The headline is a little misleading…

    Inflation rose at a 2.6% annual rate]https//wwwbls.gov/news.release/pdf/cpi.pdf) in October, according to the consumer price index report released last week. But, most importantly in the report to America's home chefs: Food at home prices are up just 1.1% from 2023. Compare that to 2022 when prices jumped more than 10% from 2021.
