Longtime GOP campaign strategist, and current thorn in Donald Trump’s side, Rick Wilson, pounced all over a report in The Atlantic that contained allegations from FBI insiders that Director Kash Patel has, at times, been a non-functional drunk unable to fulfill his duties.

In his Monday newsletter, the acerbic Wilson took joyful pokes at the Trump appointee, calling him “The Drunk in the Poodle Room,” before noting that the beleaguered law enforcement official hired a MAGA-related attorney who filed a defamation lawsuit in court on Monday aimed at obtaining a $250 million judgment.

On his Substack, Wilson reported that he was also once sued by Patel’s attorney, Jesse Binnall, who was representing Trump insider Michael Flynn at the time, which, Wilson wrote, ended with Flynn and his lawyer losing “... in spectacular fashion.”

Wilson wrote, Binnell is “a name that should ring a bell for anyone who followed Trump’s post-2020 legal clown show and who follows Against All Enemies.”

“Binnall isn’t just a bad bet,” he elaborated. “He’s a legal losing streak with a law degree. His defamation suit for Mark Robinson against CNN over the ‘Black Nazi' story Robinson withdrew it himself, calling it a ‘futile effort’ before the judge could even rule. His case for the Flynn family against CNN? Dismissed on summary judgment.”

“Devin Nunes hired him to sue Esquire for implying his Iowa dairy farm used undocumented labor…and discovery proved the farm did use undocumented labor,” he added.
