Just love their key whistleblowers they've assembled for the Weaponization of Government Committee. Gym delivers.
Report outs Jim Jordan’s weaponization subcommittee “whistleblowers” as frauds paid by Trump ally | Salon.com
The report said that Friend also engaged with Russian propaganda outlets while working at the FBI, including appearances on Russia Today and quotes in a Sputnik article about his claims that President Joe Biden had turned federal agencies into an "instrument of intimidation."
Friend filed a whistleblower complaint to the Justice Department inspector general and the Office of Special Counsel, but his complaint was rejected by both.
Friend is part of a group of former agents who were placed on leave and called themselves the "suspendables" in a letter alleging bias at the bureau against conservative agents. Friend and another witness, suspended Kansas FBI special agent Garrett O'Boyle, both testified that they received financial support from Patel, a close Trump ally. Friend said that Patel sent him $5,000 after they connected last year and that Patel helped promote his upcoming book on social media. Patel also found Friend a job working as a fellow on domestic intelligence and security services at the
Center for Renewing America, which is run by Vought and largely funded by the
Conservative Partnership Institute, which is run by former Trump chief of staff Mark Meadows and former Sen. Jim DeMint, R-S.C.
"Based on this evidence, committee Democrats conclude that there is a strong likelihood that Kash Patel is encouraging the witnesses to continue pursuing their meritless claims, and in fact is using them to help propel his vendetta against the F.B.I., Justice Department, and Biden administration on behalf of himself and President Trump," the report said.
