KASH PATEL CAUGHT IN A LIE TO CONGRESS?

Is Kash Patel guilty of deceiving Congress? Did the FBI director lie to Congress during his Senate Confirmation Hearing?

On Wednesday, Patel testified before the House Appropriations Committee’s Subcommittee on Commerce, Justice, Science, and Related Agencies about the FBI’s fiscal year 2026 budget request. Democratic Rep. Madeleine Dean of Pennsylvania used the Budget hearing to question Patel about the arrest of Milwaukee County Circuit Court Judge Hannah Dugan.

The Congresswoman also accused the FBI Director of lying during his confirmation hearing.

Dean mentioned her role as a manager in the second impeachment of President Donald Trump over the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the Capitol building while claiming Patel was “weaponizing” the government. When can I, a former impeachment manager, expect the FBI at my door?” Dean asked Patel, who responded, “You want to know who was targeted by a weaponized FBI? Me.”

The questioning went down hill from there.
