  In March 2023, a report compiled by Democrats on the House Judiciary Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government detailed the testimony of two former FBI special agents, who said they had received financial support from Patel for promoting misinformation about the January 6 Capitol attack, finding one agent a position with the Center for Renewing America and promoting his book. Patel covered legal fees and paid witnesses who testified before the subcommittee, according to The New York Times. He co-produced " Justice for All ", a charity record by Trump and a choir of men incarcerated in connection with the attack on the Capitol that was released that month. Patel was a political consultant for Save America and Friends of Matt Gaetz.
  
  NPR described Patel as a "fixture on right-wing talk shows and podcasts", including Stew Peters 's podcast. From 2021 to 2023, Patel was the host of Kash's Corner, a show on EpochTV, a streaming television service operated by the Falun Gong -affiliated newspaper The Epoch Times. He interviewed Trump on Kash's Corner in February 2022. After Steve Bannon, a former Trump advisor, surrendered to a federal prison in July 2024 for defying a subpoena from the Select Committee on the January 6 Attack, Patel served as a part-time guest host for Bannon's podcast War Room. In 2024, Igor Lopatonok, a Russian filmmaker associated with the Russian government, paid Patel $25,000 to appear on a six-part series, All the President's Men: The Conspiracy Against Trump, on the Tucker Carlson Network.
