The bombshell report by The New York Post alleged that sources within the FBI had called Patel “in over his head” and his deputy, Dan Bongino, “something of a clown.”

“Patel apparently did not have his own FBI raid jacket with him and refused to step from the plane without wearing one,” the report, citing a highly respected agent, read.

FBI agents who were working on Kirk’s case “had to stop and ask around to find an FBI raid jacket — a medium-sized one — that would fit,” and eventually Patel was given a jacket belonging to a female agent.

However, according to the report, the FBI director complained that “two areas on the upper sleeves did not have Velcro patches attached” and refused to leave the plane until those areas were patched, prompting agents to remove their own to loan to him.

    Patel denied the claim about his jacket, telling Ingraham that “it’s 100% false” and that, at the time, one of his agents handed him a jacket in Utah and said, “Hey, boss, you should probably wear this. We’re going to the command center.”

    “I said I’d be honored to wear that, and then another one handed me the SWAT team badge of the unit that was protecting the area where Charlie was assassinated,” Patel said. “I wore that with pride.”

    Things that totally happened for $1000. Km sure many people are saying it
