Cash Patel Accused of Using Personal Slush Fund to Pay Off FBI Allies
Troubling reports suggest FBI Director Kash Patel may be using agency funds as a personal slush fund, issuing potentially unlawful bonus payments totaling over $1 million. These payments were reportedly directed towards loyalist MAGA members on his Director’s Advisory Team and security detail, bypassing statutory pay caps. This alleged misuse of funds, which has depleted bonus payment reserves, has drawn criticism and prompted an official inquiry into the director’s actions.
