Why is the FBI director selling apparel?

So he can install malware on your computer (even though only his fans will be affected...)

I assume that's where all the Female Body Inspector shirts come from

It's the only logical conclusion

I believe the proper term is Kakistocracy.

Why does the FBI director have personalized bourbon bottles?

Nenjamin Betanyahu might just be interested in 69,420 t-shirt orders from Kash.

Too lazy to check, but I'm almost sure Patel's website runs WordPress with a vulnerable plugin that allows anyone to set up ClickFix among other things.

The FBI director's Based Apparel site has been spotted hosting a 'ClickFix' attack, which involves duping users into running a seemingly benign, but malicious command.

honestly what you deserve if you are buying apparel from Kash Patel. 🤷‍♂️

[–] imhungry@leminal.space 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

This mentality is understandable, but it only benefits Kash Patel and people like him. As a society, we need to hold people accountable even if they only hurt our enemies. The existence of a bad actor means that anyone or anything else could become a target, too.

What kind of 4chan koolaid are you drinking?
