Patel Claims He Doesn’t Know Pro-Hitler Podcaster Despite Having Appeared On His Show Eight Times

January 30, 2025 Extremists

Mediaite reports:

Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) grilled Kash Patel, President Donald Trump’s nominee to lead the FBI, about some of his past associations with “extremist figures,” one of whom Patel claimed not to be familiar with despite eight different appearances on his podcast.

“Mr. Patel, you frequently associated with and sometimes praised extremist figures with well-documented histories of racism, anti-Semitism, conspiracies and the like,” Durbin began. “You familiar with a Stew Peters? Does that name ring a bell?”

“I’m sorry?” Patel waivered. “Are you familiar with Mr. Stew Peters?” Durbin asked again. “Not off the top of my head,” Patel replied.

Read the full article. As I’ve reported here countless times, Stew Peters is a self-described Hitler fan boy who has posted photos of himself proudly brandishing a copy of Mein Kampf. Despite Peters’ many Holocaust-denying claims, his virulently antisemitic posts, and his near-daily calls to execute prominent Democrats, elected Republicans and cultists like Kash Patel continue to appear on his show. And now Patel claims that he’s never heard of him after appearing on his show at least eight times.



Durbin: “Are you familiar with Mr Stew Peters?”

Patel: “I’m sorry what?”

Durbin: “Are you familiar with Stew Peters?”

Patel: “Not off the top of my head.”

Durbin: “You made eight separate appearances on his podcast. He promoted outrageous conspiracy theories and worked with prominent neo-Nazis.”
