FBI Director Patel working 'aggressively' to comply with congressional record requests ahead of deadlines

EXCLUSIVE: FBI Director Kash Patel is working "aggressively" to comply ahead of schedule with congressional document requests in an effort to follow through on his commitment for the bureau to provide transparency to the American people, Fox News Digital has learned.

On Friday, the FBI sent a letter to the House Judiciary Committee notifying the panel that it was handing over a tranche of documents pursuant to a subpoena from Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio.

Fox News Digital has learned that the records shared by the FBI included more than 400 pages on topics the committee had long been seeking, dating back to the Biden administration, relating to topics such as former Attorney General Merrick Garland’s school board memo and the Jan. 6 pipe bomb investigation.

The FBI’s compliance came more than a week before the March 17 deadline set by Jordan.

The FBI also turned over documents related to the bureau's engagement with social media entities and the now-disbanded Foreign Influence Task Force.

Fox News Digital has learned that the documents production included "minimal redactions" and that the FBI plans to turn over additional records to the House Judiciary Committee on those topics in the coming weeks.

"We are thankful for Director Patel’s work and we will have more updates soon," Russel Dye, spokesperson for Jordan, told Fox News Digital Monday.

Patel’s efforts come after Republicans on Capitol Hill, for years — under the leadership of FBI Directors Christopher Wray and James Comey — have complained about the FBI missing deadlines for documents requests and defying congressional subpoenas.

Either arrest and put people in prison or you guys are toast. It is either, or, no middle ground. Bookmark this post and SEE if it does not become fact.

Within a federal government context, I would say that 400 pages is a minuscule amount.

Recall that Bondi had "all of the Epstein documents" on her desk -- and it amounted to 120 pages. Epstein was in business for well over a decade, owned an island, entertained rich and famous people from around the world, was assisted by Ghislaine Maxwell who was convicted after a long trial. Epstein was active. And Bondi thought that 120 pages would cover it all?

I don't know what topic Jim Jordan is looking into, but Patel has amassed a tranche of 400 pages? He's gonna need a bigger tranche.

It depends if the 400 pages are meat, or like Garland did, just a bunch of fat, gristle and filler.

Given that J.J. has not accomplished more than being a GREAT bloviator (like Gowdy & those before him), this tranche, of meat OR not, is moot.

Just waiting for the next strongly worded letter while he & the rest of the Uniparty vote for more of the same.

How about just posting those 400 pages on the internet so everyone can see them. That would be transparency!
