Kash Patel is half assing his FBI job

https://www.rawstory.com/kash-patel-fbi-nightclubs/

Kash Patel accused of being spotted more in nightclubs than at his job


"But the one word that keeps coming back at me from inside is that building is chaos," he added. " People don't know what's happening from day to day. There's also been reporting, I believe, from the Wall Street Journal, the Washington Post, that Patel spent a lot of his time at his home in Las Vegas –– he's been sort of working remotely for at least part of the week."

He can just look in his crystal (high) ball (glass), see the situation, wave his magic communication wand, and the situation will be dealt with.
Man, that's hard work. Need to get back to the night-club...err, magic workshop.

Chaos isn't good, certainly, but we know he's unqualified, so perhaps he will do less damage??

Hope

Patel graduated from the University of Richmond in 2002 with a degree in criminal justice and history. He earned a certificate in international law from the University College London and graduated from the Pace University School of Law in 2005. According to a questionnaire he sent to the Senate Committee on the Judiciary, Patel participated in the American Bar Association's "Judicial Intern Opportunity Program", a diversity initiative, as a student at Pace University in 2003.

We should be grateful. If he was even halfway competent, we would be in even worse shape.
