FBI Director Kash Patel took it outside—and onto social media—after being grilled about his drinking during an angry Senate hearing.
Patel, whose job is said to be on the rocks, appeared punch-drunk after Sen. Chris Van Hollen, a Maryland Democrat, hit him with reports of excessive drinking and unexplained absences.
Patel, 46, vehemently denied the claims and agreed to take an “audit” alongside Van Hollen to prove his innocence.
During the tense exchange at an annual Senate committee budget hearing on Tuesday, Keystone Kash also accused Van Hollen of drinking margaritas with deported Maryland resident Kilmar Abrego Garcia in El Salvador, as well as running up a $7,000 bar tab in Washington, D.C.
