Washington, May 12, 2026, 17:21 EDT FBI Director Kash Patel pushed back hard Tuesday against accusations of heavy drinking and missed work, firing off a blunt denial during a heated exchange with Sen.

(AP News) The timing is key here. Patel wasn’t only there to answer questions—he needed senators to support the FBI’s fiscal 2027 budget request: $12.53 billion, with roughly 3,200 extra positions and close to 1,300 more special agents in the mix.
