You know what gets me? That this person - whoever they are - thinks they have the right to question Kash Patel like he’s some common crazy. Not an attack, my foot, because what will be the response when Kash answers in a way this person doesn’t expect/respect? Will this person actually “respect the work you’ve done” and try to understand his perspective of someone who has “taken care of [my] friend”? Maybe look at his own attitudes and assumptions? No, he will condemn Kash along with all the rest of us. Just in the asking, he’s made his position clear. It’s meant to intimidate - suggesting that anything less than a retraction would be reason enough to condemn and attack.
