Trump Loyalist Kash Patel to Release New Book Seeking to Expose Corruption of the Deep State

Trump loyalist Kashyap ‘Kash’ Pramod Patel, a former Pentagon official and longtime House Intelligence Committee aide, is releasing a book later this month where he “seeks to expose the corruption of the “Deep State,” The Washington Examiner has reported. In the book titled “Government Gangsters,” the Indian American reveals “the major players and tactics within the permanent government bureaucracy, which has spent decades stripping power away from the American people and their elected leaders,” reads a synopsis of the book on Amazon.com. “Based on his firsthand knowledge, Patel reveals how we can defeat the Deep State, reassert self-government, and restore our democracy,” the synopsis adds.

Speaking with The Washington Examiner, Patel said the Deep State “exists.” He said he wished he “wasn’t writing a book on the Deep State, but whether it was my time in the Department of Justice, DOD, the intel community, the State Department, wherever — there were always bad actors in senior leadership.”

The book was originally set for a Sept. 19 launch, The Washington Post said, adding that “the release was delayed by the federal government.” It is now scheduled to release on Sept. 26, according to Amazon. 

Patel explained the process of getting a clearance for writing the book. “When you are leaving government, and you want to write a book, especially when you had a security clearance like I did, you sign documents that say before you publish any memoirs or books that you will submit them back for a pre-publication review,” he told The Washington Examiner. Noting that he agrees to that process, as it “ensures that no private data spilled, that classified information doesn’t get out, he said the process that “takes two to three months upon submission,” took 10 months in his case. Patel told the publication he had to “file a lawsuit in federal court to receive his manuscript back that saw .05% of my book redacted, with the dumbest redactions you can possibly imagine.”

Patel told the Examiner he expects “backlash from Democrats and liberal media figures,” adding that he had done his research for the book. “We went out and made sure the only thing we were going to put in these pages was the truth and not hyperbole,” he said. “If they want to challenge it, and I’m sure they will. But when they come, I’ll have known from my past experiences that we hit it out of the park because the harder they’re coming after you, it means the more I know that we got it right and that it was worth putting the truth out for the American people.”

Meanwhile, he received praise from his former boss, former President Donald Trump. “The great American Kash Patel has a new book on how to wipe out the Deep State, on presale now, called ‘Government Gangsters’,” he wrote on Truth Social. “A brilliant roadmap highlighting every corrupt actor, to ultimately return our agencies and departments to work for the American People.”

Last year, Trump backed Patel’s children’s book, “The Plot Against the King,” urging his followers “to put this amazing book in every school in America.” Through the book, Patel perpetuates the lie about the FBI investigation into Trump-Russia collusion, blaming the probe on the so-called Steele Dossier. He refers to himself as “the wizard” who saved “King Donald” along with “Duke Devin” (Devin Nunes, former congressman, currently chief executive officer of the Trump Media & Technology Group).
