Kash Patel faces scrutiny over conduct

The leadership of the FBI has become a focal point of controversy as Director Kash Patel's personal conduct is questioned by both lawmakers and the press.

President Trump is reportedly privately fuming over Patel's boozy antics during a recent trip to the Olympics, which triggered a wave of negative headlines.

Simultaneously, a legal battle has emerged between Patel and The Atlantic over an unflattering profile.

House Democrats have warned they may not support the reauthorization of key spy powers as long as Patel remains the nation's top law enforcement official.
