FBI Director Kash Patel’s activities during the investigation of conservative activist Charlie Kirk’s assassination raise questions about his decision-making during a crisis, four former FBI officials and two administration officials told NBC News.
Four former senior FBI officials told NBC News that the posts were premature and unnecessary.
“He should not have posted anything about the case until there was certainty,” the first former senior FBI official said.
“No serious director would show up at this stage,” the former senior FBI official said.
Driscoll, who tried to protect agents who worked on Jan. 6 investigations, and two other former senior FBI officials sued Patel last week and requested their jobs back.
