Former Congressman Devin Nunes shares his take on the heated exchange between Sen. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., and FBI director nominee Kash Patel.
Kash Patel, President Donald Trump's nominee for FBI director, and Sen. Amy Klobuchar had a tense exchange at Patel's confirmation hearing Wednesday on Capitol Hill.
Patel, in his opening remarks said, “I’d like to welcome my father Pramod, and my mother Anjana, who are sitting here today. They travelled here from India. My sister, Nisha, is also here. She also traveled across the oceans just to be with me.
President Donald Trump’s new administration is looking ahead to key Senate hearings this week for three of his most controversial nominees.
During his confirmation hearing, Kash Patel appeared to break from President Trump when he told senators he disagreed with the pardons for January 6 defendants convicted of violent crimes. NBC News' Ken Dilanian reports on the questions Patel faced as he looks to serve as the next FBI director.
During Kashyap "Kash" Patel's Senate confirmation hearing on Thursday, Blackburn requested his help in releasing files related to the Jeffrey Epstein case.
FBI director nominee Kash Patel broke with President Donald Trump over commuting sentences for Jan. 6, 2021 violence against law enforcement.
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.
During his opening remarks, Patel began by honoring his Indian heritage, thanking his parents—Pramod and Anjana Patel—who flew from India for the hearing as well as his sister Nisha. He drew attention to their presences and greeted them with the Hindu greeting “Jai Shri Krishna.” A video clip also showed him touching their feet.
Kash Patel faces Senate scrutiny over his FBI director nomination, addressing concerns about political bias and law enforcement independence.
