The Intersection with Michael Popok

Kash Patel should be fired for misconduct and incompetence in his bungling of the Charlie Kirk murder "manhunt" as he refused to stop having dinner (and drinks?) with friends at an exclusive Manhattan Italian restaurant to get his facts straight about the investigation and quarterback it properly from the FBI's headquarters. And then he had the brass ones to take credit for the capture of the susp...
