Director of Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Kash Patel has appreciated the agency for revealing crucial details regarding convicted sex offender and late financier Jeffrey Epstein.

In a post on X, Patel assured Americans that the FBI will continue to reveal hidden records.

“The FBI is entering a new era—one that will be defined by integrity, accountability, and the unwavering pursuit of justice. There will be no cover-ups, no missing documents, and no stone left unturned — and anyone from the prior or current Bureau who undermines this will be swiftly pursued,” Patel wrote.
