In an interview with Fox News, Republican Sen. Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee stated that Democrats like California Sen. Adam Schiff and others “fear” Kash Patel leading the FBI because he is aware of their roles in spreading the “Russian collusion” hoax during President Donald Trump’s first term.
During Sunday’s episode of “Fox & Friends,” Blackburn told guest host Charlie Hurt, “I think they are very afraid of Kash Patel because he knows what Adam Schiff and some of the others did with Russia collusion, and they know that he — knows the dirt on them, if you will, and I think they’re afraid of what he’s going to do and what he’s going to reveal and what he’s going to make known to the American people.”
Hurt responded, “And they realize that one thing Kash Patel is very committed to is bringing transparency to what’s going on in Washington,” to which Blackburn agreed.
“So, how much do you think Democrats might dislike them for having RFK Jr. like Tulsi Gabbard?” Hurt inquired. “Because I believe you to be correct. One of the things that really, really aggravates them, in my opinion, is that these are former Democrats, and they feel compelled to— I believe that it just aggravates them that these Democrats managed to collaborate with President Trump on commonsense solutions.
