Matt Gaetz buddy given immunity deal

The Wall Street Journal reports that Kash Patel, the former Chief of Staff to Acting Secretary of Defense Christopher Miller, will testify before a federal grand jury examining the handling of classified documents at Mar-a-Lago after receiving immunity from a federal judge. The name may sound familiar to Northwest Florida Republicans.

Patel campaigned for Congressman Matt Gaetz this summer, appearing on the Gaetz’s “Back Our Troop” mini-tour in Navarre and Niceville. He also has appeared on the congressman’s podcast Firebrand.
