For more than two hours-shackled to a metal bar in a freezing room at the New Jersey FBI field office-Khater, who has no criminal record, was interrogated.
In just the past several weeks, a number of new FBI scandals have emerged.
The ongoing trial of four men accused of conspiring to "Kidnap" Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer in 2020 has revealed the FBI's sloppy-and expensive-handling of FBI informants.
More than a dozen FBI undercover agents and informants were involved in the kidnapping caper; Dan Chappel, the lead informant, was compensated at least $60,000 by the FBI for six months' work, paid in cash for services rendered, and reimbursement for expenses.
Defense lawyers also revealed that Stephen Robeson, a longtime FBI informant and convicted felon working the case, has a rap sheet in nine states and operates out of numerous FBI field offices across the country.
"In light of the FBI's repeated failure to adhere to safeguards on its use of Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act authorities and the FBI's spying on protected First Amendment activities during the campaign of President Donald Trump, the FBI acquiring yet another tool to spy on Americans is deeply troubling and presents significant risks to the civil liberties of U.S. persons," Representatives Jim Jordan and Mike Johnson wrote.
Republicans are largely responsible for the accelerated rate of corruption and malfeasance at the FBI. For years, congressional Republicans promised to hold FBI officials culpable for various scandals but failed to act.
