The Justice Department is investigating whether Kash Patel, a former high-ranking Trump administration official who was instrumental in revealing secrets behind the "Russiagate" controversy, improperly disclosed classified information, according to a new report.
The alleged inquiry was revealed in a column Friday by Washington Post columnist
David Ignatius, who cited "two knowledgeable sources who requested anonymity because of the sensitivity of the probe."
The sources said the investigation began this year with a complaint submitted by an intelligence agency, which was not identified. The column said the sources would not provide further details, and Patel could not be reached for comment. The Washington Examiner reached out to the Justice Department for comment.
Toward the end of the Trump administration, Patel last worked as chief of staff to acting Defense Secretary Christopher Miller after serving as a National Security Council staffer and a top aide to now-former acting Director of National Intelligence Richard Grenell.
