Andrew McCabe: ‘No Part of the FBI’s Mission Is Safe with Kash Patel in Any Position of Leadership’

EXCERPT:

MCCABE: "So, in my estimation, Kaitlan, no part of the FBI's mission is safe with Kash Patel in any position of leadership in the FBI, and certainly not in the Deputy Director's job. So just as an example, the Deputy Director job in the FBI is unique, because, of course, the director's a political appointee. And the deputy director is typically a senior FBI agent, somebody who spent their entire career learning about the FBI, understanding its people and doing its work. So, the deputy director actually runs the FBI on a day-to-day basis. You're essentially the Chief Operating Officer. I can tell you, from my own experience, there is no way I could have successfully performed in that role, without having spent the first 10 years of my career, doing criminal work in the FBI, and the next 10 years doing national security work.”
