Kash Patel's potential appointment as F.B.I. director signals a troubling shift towards politicization that undermines the Bureau's historical nonpartisan independence.
Hoover, despite his many abuses, was dedicated to the F.B.I.'s integrity, whereas Patel aims to weaponize the Bureau for partisan goals.
Patel's views reflect a belief that the F.B.I. is filled with 'spiteful mandarins' conspiring against the country, showcasing the bizarre state of current politics.
While Hoover recognized the importance of the F.B.I.'s role, Patel seeks to use it as a tool for vengeance against political adversaries.
