‘Way outside my lane’: Kash Patel learns of bombshell Trump claim in real time

Kash Patel’s live interview with Joe Rogan Thursday afternoon took an unexpected twist as the FBI director – and podcast host – learned in real time that Elon Musk had just accused President Donald Trump of being listed in the notorious Epstein files.

The shock came as Rogan and Patel were deep in conversation about conspiracy theories tied to Jeffrey Epstein – who Patel now insists died by suicide – a reversal from his previous theory that Epstein was murdered in jail that has angered some in the MAGA world, the Independent reported.
