The lawsuit says statements in Fitzpatrick’s article “falsely assert” that Patel “is a habitual drunk, unable to perform the duties of his office, is a threat to public safety, is vulnerable to foreign coercion, has violated DOJ ethics rules, is unreachable in emergencies, has required the deployment of ‘breaching equipment’ to extract him from locked rooms, allows alcohol to influence his public statements about criminal investigations, and behaves erratically in a manner that compromises national security.”

  1. I think this strengthens the case against him tbh, he must have been positively plastered to have arrived at that number

    Please let this get to the discovery phase. These smoothbrains can’t actually sue anyone without all of their dirt being found

    Pictures don’t lie. On every picture of anyone celebrating, he’s drinking.

    I hate that I know the head of the FBI regularly needing to be Rainbow Six Sieged out of locked rooms won’t be the most ridiculous thing I’ll read this week…

  5. They’re gonna try to use the case to force The Atlantic to disclose their sources, bank on it.

  6. Ngl, I’m surprised he did it. He’d have to prove they knew it was a lie and published with malicious intent. They are a decently large organization, I highly doubt they would’ve left themselves open to this; they likely have many on-the-record witnesses as well. 

  7. What dumbass firm took his case? Or they are just salivating over all the billable hours coming?

    Every single member of this administration is a grifter who thinks it should be illegal to say anything negative about their behavior.

    I wish Kash the worst luck possible and hope he gets fired soon.

  9. This is a good development for Kash’s health. All that beer money is now going to lawyers.

    lol what a joke, wonder what bullshit reason he’ll cite for pulling out before discovery. It really is so pathetic how infatuated with Trump he is. That children’s book he wrote🤦🏽and now doing Trumps patented frivolous lawsuit when someone accurately outs him.
