MS NOW reporter pans Kash Patel's 'basically bogus' FBI stats after touting Biden-era crime data

An MS NOW reporter is panning what he calls "basically bogus" FBI stats after previously touting the ones released under the Biden administration without such scrutiny.

MS NOW justice correspondent Ken Dilanian co-authored a report last week alleging FBI Director Kash Patel was "padding the stats" to boost arrest numbers, citing agency insiders.

"It was remarkable to hear Kash Patel really lean into these stats, which our sources say are basically bogus," Dilanian said, referencing Patel's contentious Senate hearing.
