The newest director of the FBI has caused an unprecedented fire storm within the desk that he had been chosen by hand.
Kashyap 'Kash' Patel, 45, known for his close relationship with Maga Politics, has demanded radical loyalty tests and extensive control procedures for the staff of the agency, indicating that the newest leader of the FBI may not fully trust the agency that he was called to lead.
The FBI director, whose critics have branded a conspiracy theorist, also inquired about hiring his own private security details not long after his confirmation of the Senate in February, the Wall Street Journal reported.
As a director, Patel is automatically assigned a team of FBI agents to guarantee his safety, but suggests his last request that he is not willing to place his life in the hands of his own agents.
The former public prosecutor also inquired how a safe telephone line to get directly to the Oval Office from both his FBI office in Washington DC and his house, according to the journal.
Patel reportedly claimed that he did not want to go through the FBI's landline in his office, but instead a direct line to his ally, President Donald Trump.
Under the usual command structure, the FBI director would contact the president via the Attorney General, as all FBI directors have had in 1929 since J. Edgar Hoover.
The indirect contact line is reportedly installed to maintain the distance and to show independence of the White House.

“Director Patel works aggressively to remove criminals from our streets, repair rights and order and to ensure that agents have the means they need to effectively fulfill their duties,” said FBI spokesperson Ben Williamson.
“We have absolutely no interest in dealing with false leaks or distractions that undermine that mission,” he added.
The New York-Native was one of the most controversial administration of Trump.
Patel, who was born in New York from Indian Gujarati -Migrant parents, made shocking by the senate voice, even after every democratic senator, as well as two Republicans, voted against his confirmation.
Their reserve was not only that Patel had a complete lack of experience with the FBI, but overwhelming worries of critics suggested that the newly appointed federal agent is a conspiracy theorist.
In 2022, the FBI director wrote a picture book for children pushing the claim that former President Joe Biden has set up the 2020 elections against Trump.
Patel was also often known for its political opposition and even the FBI as part of 'the deep state' – which refers to a large number of people, usually influential members of government agencies or the army, who are assumed to be involved in the secret manipulation or control of government policy – during his time as a commentator in the Epoch Times.
