Patel Purge begins to Ripple Through the States

The Patel Purge is fully underway in states across the country, and leaders are speaking out against it. Senator Bill Cassidy (R-LA), this weekend, questioned the wisdom of the firings and reassignments, saying that local law enforcement need more FBI help, not less. As, Kash Patel's nomination heads for consideration by the full Senate this week, leaders in law enforcement across the nation are confronting the real possibility that the Patel Purge will come knocking at their door. GOP Senators should be nervous that a vote to rubber stamp Patel is a vote to gut law enforcement nationwide. Patel's vote this week might be a foregone conclusion at the WH, but some Senators will be casting a vote that determines their own future.
