'DEEP STATE' ENEMY suspended from FBI

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has suspended an analyst whom Director Kash Patel included on a “deep state” enemies list in one of his books, according to multiple reports. The agency placed Brian Auten, an expert on Russia, on administrative leave last week but did not divulge the reason for the suspension. Reached for comment, the FBI told the Daily Beast that it does not comment on personnel matters. In his book, Government Gangsters, Patel placed Auten on a list of 60 officials whom the MAGA loyalist deemed agents of the “deep state.” It also features former FBI Directors James Comey and Christopher Wray.
