The FBI’s raid at former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate took place because there were “documents in there that need to be made public, that were never released to the public,” concerning the investigation into the Russia allegations that were made about him, former Department of Defense chief of staff Kash Patel told Newsmax on Monday.
“I know this from my time running ‘Russiagate’ for [former Rep.] Devin Nunes, and I know we keep going back to it, but I’m trying to bring people back to it because this is what the Mar-a-Lago raid was about,” Patel, who Trump chose as his representative to work with the National Archives concerning documents, said on Newsmax’s “Wake Up America.”
Patel’s comments Monday come after David Ignatius’ opinion piece for The Washington Post over the weekend described Patel as Trump’s “point man” in his battle against the “deep state” and said he “has emerged as a chief public exponent of Trump’s claim that he could declassify information, including highly sensitive Russia-probe material, at will.”
Kash Patel is da man!!
