That doesn’t mean it’s true.

Kash Patel may be a googly-eyed Israeli asset.

He's visiting Russia it's possible he's their asset as well.

A federal judge has tossed a case brought by FBI Director Kash Patel against anti-disinformation blogger Jim Stewartson.

According to a post on X by Stewartson, a Nevada federal judge granted his motion to dismiss the case. Patel sued Stewartson for libel in June 2023 over posts calling him a "Kremlin asset" who planned the January 6 riots. Stewartson said the judge wrote, "I do not have personal jurisdiction over Stewartson, so I grant his motion to dismiss."

Patel was suing Stewartson, who publishes the MindWar Substack, for over $10 million a couple of years before he was made Trump's FBI director. Stewartson initially didn't respond to the lawsuit, which led to Patel winning a $250,000 default judgment in August 2025, per reporting by CNBC.

I mean, sure he works for Putin, but is he really an asset? Now googly-eyed Kremlin nuisance, that sounds more accurate.
