FBI Director Kash Patel is facing questions from the Senate today, including about the investigation into Charlie Kirk’s death.
Right, he has faced a lot of criticism for how the FBI handled this, especially regarding his social media posts as the search for the suspect was still ongoing.
He posted a subject was in custody before having to walk it back and saying that subject was released, which many thought made the FBI look disorganized, that he was sharing information prematurely.
But he opened his remarks by defending the investigation, arguing the timeline from the shooting, to the FBI releasing photos of the suspect, to having him in custody was swift, and adding:
“It is important that this FBI is as transparent as possible without jeopardizing investigations.” (0:30-0:35)
“I do want to thank the American people especially, the mission of the FBI is for them and with them, and by with and through them, and it is that mission and that ethos that I brought to this investigation and so many others, and that is why this suspect is in custody. We cannot do our job without the American public.” (2:51-3:09)
But some senators were still not happy with how he handled it, with Senator Dick Durbin saying:
“Director Patel again sparked mass confusion by incorrectly claiming on social media that the shooter was in custody, which he then had to walk back with another social post. Mr. Patel was so anxious to take credit for finding Mr. Kirk’s assassin that he violated one of the basics of effective law enforcement: at critical stages of an investigation, shut up and let the professionals do their job.” (7:06-7:31)
Others instead asked Patel for more information about the investigation and the alleged shooter.
And there, Patel told Senator Josh Hawley that the FBI is looking at a discord chat he allegedly participated in:
“We are also going to be investigating anyone and everyone involved in that discord chat…okay, I see reports saying the thread had as many as 20 additional users…” (1:09-1:19)
“It’s a lot more than that and we are running them all down.” (1:27-1:29)
Regarding the alleged shooter, Tyler Robinson, he is set to appear in court today and prosecutors are preparing to file capital murder charges against him.[]
With this coming as he reportedly has not been cooperating in the investigation and is being held without bail.
His appearance is not scheduled until the early evening, so we will have to see what comes of it.
But then, with this story, a bunch of updates are not tied to the investigation itself, but to the conversations around all of it.
