Democratic Sen. John Fetterman recently disclosed that Kash Patel, Donald Trump's nominee for FBI director, assured him that he does not intend to target the president-elect's political adversaries. Fetterman revealed that he had a private meeting with Patel, during which he was convinced that Patel has no plans to use the FBI for such purposes.
In his book 'Government Gangsters: The Deep State, the Truth, and the Battle for Our Democracy,' Patel advocated for a thorough overhaul of the Justice Department, alleging that it has unfairly singled out Republicans and their supporters. He expressed a commitment to confronting what he refers to as the 'deep state,' a group he defines as comprising elected officials, journalists, prominent figures in Big Tech, and members of the unelected bureaucracy.
