FBI Director Kash Patel blasted MSNBC on Saturday, branding the publication a “ass clown factory of disinformation” after one of the network’s legal analysts appeared to criticize reports the former FBI director would be perp walked.

Patel railed against MSNBC after Barb McQuade, a former U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Michigan, wrote on X that Department of Justice (DOJ) policy prohibits “perp walks” in front of news media. Her post followed multiple Friday reports that the FBI relieved an agent of duty for failing to arrange one for former Director James Comey. Patel did not deny the reports he terminated an agent, though he did write that, under his leadership, the FBI demands agents “follow the chain of command or get relieved.”

“MSNBC still an ass clown factory of disinformation,” Patel wrote Saturday. “Same circus animals that slobbered all over perp walks of Stone, Navarro, Bannon… MSNBC has no facts and no audience. In this FBI, follow the chain of command or get relieved.”

Comey was indicted on Sept. 25 for lying to Congress and obstructing a congressional investigation.

Patel also stated in his post that MSNBC previously “slobbered all over” incidents involving conservatives subjected to “perp walks.” Political consultant Roger Stone and journalist Steve Baker both replied with images taken of their arrests which were publicly circulated.

MSNBC did not immediately respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s request for comment.
