Why Was Kash Patel Planning a Moscow Trip? Senate Committee Questions

That Kash Patel was coming to Moscow this week, and there was a five-page letter written by the Senate Intelligence Committee basically telling him not to, and it was very detailed why. Um, and I guess my question to you is, how much influence does the Senate Intelligence Committee have?

Are they being a mouthpiece for those elements in the CIA that don't want Kash Patel to go to Moscow? And why would Kash Patel be going to Moscow? Now, now remember, this trip was set up before this, um, energy deal. What, what is your thoughts on it?

Yeah, I, I really have no idea what he's doing.

Um, because, uh, uh, unless- He may not know.

... unless there is some... Yeah, well, yeah, that's true. But, uh, unless there is some, uh, classified criminal investigation in which- Okay ... the United States and Russia are working on it together, that's the only thing I could come up with,

that they could conceivably be involved with some, a joint criminal investigation.

Uh, you know, one, one, uh, it's an extreme possibility is that I, I know there have been, uh, evidence submitted to the Department of Justice, uh, a- and then also to the Inspector General at the Department of War, Department of Defense,

regarding corruption in Ukraine. And- Mm ... the fact that members of the US Congress, I know that Lindsey Graham was getting money.

I'm told that Chuck Schumer- Yes ... was getting money. I mean, in excess of $23 million.

Uh, so- Mm-hmm ... uh, you know, if those allegations are true, you know, conceivably, uh, maybe Kash Patel, uh, is heading up an investigation and looking for support from Russia, uh, with, with regard- Mm-hmm ... because there are, there are, uh, exiles from Ukraine in Russia that have, uh,

evidence and information to that, uh, to, to, re- related to that. Apart from that, I can't think of any other reason for Kash Patel to go, unless he's just a tourist interested in seeing a beautiful city and eating great food.
