President Donald Trump’s new administration is looking ahead to key Senate hearings this week for three of his most controversial nominees.

FBI director nominee Kash Patel broke with President Donald Trump over commuting sentences for Jan. 6, 2021 violence against law enforcement.

Kash Patel, President Trump's pick for FBI director, faced members of the Senate Judiciary Committee in his confirmation hearing Thursday.

The nominee for F.B.I. director made his nonprofit into a publicity machine, selling his children’s book, his clothing brand and his image as Donald Trump’s ultimate loyalist.

Kash Patel, President Donald Trump’s pick to lead the FBI, is insisting to deeply skeptical Democrats that he did not have an “enemies list” and that the bureau under his leadership would not seek retribution against the president’s adversaries or launch politically motivated investigations.

Patel told senators he would commit himself to "due process and transparency" if confirmed as the bureau's director.

Patel is a controversial nominee, having long raged against the so-called Deep State and prioritized his loyalty to Trump.
