Director Patel said his agency “won’t partner with political fronts masquerading as watchdogs.“
The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) announced it was disconnecting its ties with the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) and the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC). The two groups have labeled groups and people they oppose as “extremists“ and listed them on “hate watch“ lists.
“This FBI won’t partner with political fronts masquerading as watchdogs,” FBI Director Kash Patel announced last week. He highlighted how former FBI Director Comey embedded federal agents with the ADL to spy on Americans.
Director Patel also stated, “The Southern Poverty Law Center long ago abandoned civil rights work and turned into a partisan smear machine. Their so-called ‘hate map‘ has been used to defame mainstream Americans and even inspired violence. That disgraceful record makes them unfit for any FBI partnership.“
The director added, “In April, during our Anti-Christian Bias Panel, I made it clear that the FBI will never rely on politicized or agenda-driven intelligence from outside groups — and certainly not from the SPLC. Under this FBI, all ties with the SPLC have officially been terminated.”
As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us…
- For Director Patel to be prudent in his leadership of the FBI and the partnerships in which his agency engages.
- For FBI officers and agents to conduct their operations with honesty and integrity, upholding federal laws and citizens’ rights.
