I suspect neither Trump nor Patel fully comprehend just what the FBI does. The link is related to the subject.

“No part of the FBI’s mission is safe with Kash Patel in any position of leadership in the FBI, and certainly not in the deputy director’s job,” former FBI deputy director Andrew McCabe told CNN Thursday, saying the “scope of authority” in that job is “enormous.” “If you enter into that position with nothing more than a desire to disrupt and destroy the organization, there is a lot of damage someone like Kash Patel could do,” McCabe added.
