Patel Says FBI Cut Ties With Anti-Defamation League

This article was originally published  by The Epoch Times: Patel Says FBI Cut Ties With Anti-Defamation League

FBI Director Kash Patel recently announced a significant shift in agency policy, stating that the FBI will no longer collaborate with the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), an organization known for its efforts in combating anti-Semitism and tracking extremist activities. This decision comes in the wake of criticism from conservative circles which took issue with the ADL’s classification of Turning Point USA, a group founded by Charlie Kirk, labeling it as part of a “Glossary of Extremism.”

Patel articulated on social media, “That era is OVER. This FBI won’t partner with political fronts masquerading as watchdogs.” It appears that the FBI is attempting to distance itself from political biases, specifically those that may have been ingrained during the tenure of former Director James Comey, who has faced his own legal troubles lately as he was recently indicted.

In response, the ADL expressed a commitment to law enforcement, stating, “ADL has deep respect for the Federal Bureau of Investigation and law enforcement officers at all levels across the country who work tirelessly every day to protect all Americans regardless of their ancestry, religion, ethnicity, faith, political affiliation or any other differences.” The organization emphasized that given the alarming rise in anti-Semitism, its mission to safeguard the Jewish community remains paramount.

Delving into historical context, Patel criticized the past relationship between the FBI and the ADL, recalling Comey’s remarks at a 2017 ADL summit where he praised the organization effusively, even calling his speech a “love letter” to them. At that event, Comey noted, “I labeled that last speech a love letter to the ADL. Three years later, I can say, from the perspective of the FBI, we’re still in love with you.” This kind of affection, while poetic, raises eyebrows regarding the neutrality expected from a federal agency.

Critics of ADL

The ADL has found itself at the center of controversy, facing backlash not just from Patel but also from vocal critics like Elon Musk, who described it as a “far-left hate propaganda machine.” Representative Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.) chimed in, pointing to the inclusion of Turning Point USA in the ADL’s extremism glossary as indicative of the organization’s alleged bias. She suggested, “It seems to me like if they don’t agree with you, they will label you a ‘hate group.’”

In an abrupt turn of events, the ADL removed the webpage referencing Turning Point USA from its site, redirecting former links to content addressing global anti-Semitism instead. Acknowledging the changes, the ADL explained that the glossary, which contained over 1,000 entries intended to inform about various forms of extremism, was outdated and often misrepresented.

Founded in 1913, the ADL prides itself on being a stalwart in the fight against hate and anti-Semitism, asserting its role as “the leading anti-hate organization in the world.” This historical backdrop makes the current distancing from political affiliations all the more critical, as it seeks to navigate the fine line between advocacy and perceived bias.
