With no new information, the FBI changed its conclusion in 2021 from “suicide by cop” to domestic violent extremism. The report urges Mr. Patel to conduct a “swift review” to determine how the FBI arrived at its initial conclusion and whether the finding was determined from “the top down” by Mr. McCabe or others.
In a statement to The Washington Times, the FBI said: “We are grateful for our partners in Congress, and as Director Patel promised during his confirmation, this FBI is committed to working quickly and transparently with Capitol Hill to ensure the American people receive the full truth they deserve.”
“We have diligently delivered all requested documents and will continue to cooperate fully with Congress to uphold transparency and accountability.”
