FBI Director Kash Patel wrote that the drinking incidents — including an arrest for public urination — were not his usual behavior.

    Imma be real with you. If you find a candidate for that role who claims not to have had such minor indiscretions in their past: that person is lying. Whether that makes them a good or bad candidate for the FBI is left as an exercise for the reader.

      Defending Kash Patel with some hypothetical isn’t a strong argument, especially, because, ya know, Kash Patel, who would make a good or bad candidate is, in fact, up to congress.

        No one here is defending Kash Patel, they’re saying that pissing in a bush isn’t a big deal, especially compared to many other things he’s responsible for. You’re just making yourself look like an idiot for not understanding this, you can agree that this isn’t a good look for him and does show relevance to today while also agreeing that pissing in a bush isn’t a big deal. Unless you do think it’s a big deal, in which case you need to touch grass.

          that’s exactly what’s going on. its absurd to even deny it.

          dude’s been a drunk his whole life, and here you all are trying to defend him. it’s pathetic
