Immediately after his appointment, Kash Patel issued a strong warning via his social media account. Patel stated that those who intend to harm America and its people should consider this a warning; they will be tracked down anywhere in the world. Patel stated that the FBI has a rich legacy, “from G-men to securing our nation in the wake of 9/11”. The American people want an FBI that is transparent, accountable, and committed to justice. The politicisation of our justice system has eroded public trust. Patel said that his mission as director is clear: only good officers will remain in the police force.
