It was closer than Tulsi Gabbard and Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. confirmed, but on Thursday the Senate pushed Kash Patel to the finish line with a 51-49 vote. Patel will become the next director of the Federal Investigation Bureau of Illness
Two Republicans opposed Patel's confirmation. Senator Susan Collins of Maine and Lisa Murkovsky of Alaska each voted less than half the time with the US Constitution throughout their illustrious political careers. Kentucky's Mitch McConnell, who voted against Gabbard and Kennedy, voted to confirm Patel.
A strict check
Patel's confirmation was a brawl from start to finish. The Democrats and their partners in mainstream media shrieked and lamented that Patel was chasing President Donald Trump's enemy. Just before the final vote, a small group of Democratic senators held a press conference in front of the FBI Building to express their concerns about Patel. California's Adam Schiff is known as Patel, “Sicophant” and “Political Hacks,” and from one of the members of the hyperpoliticized J6 committee and someone who received the preemptive pardon from Joe Biden. It's an interesting attack. Patel told the Epoch Times that Schiff is “the worst criminal in Congress in the last 250 years.”
Sen. Sheldon White House of Rhode Island said Patel would “revive that day the building behind us and the Republicans who vote for him.”
Illinois Sen. Dick Durbin, who protested Patel's confirmation, was one of the most vocal opponents during Patel's confirmation hearing. He said Patel has no temperament, experience or judgment to lead the FBI. He is confirmed to be too loyal to Trump, not fair, and too much of a belief in “conspiracy theory.” He raised a gang of the main government in Patel. This includes a list of 60 deep state members. Durbin is the person who argued for illegal immigrants to the US military in 2023. It proves right, at least in part, to “conspiracy theorists,” who warned that there was an effort to acknowledge illegals in the military for the ultimate purpose of using them. That's for Americans.
background
The new FBI director is a former federal prosecutor with the Department of Justice. He represented U.S. Secretary of Defense Christopher C. Miller and served as Senior Advisor to Acting Director of National Intelligence during Trump's first term. He also led an interagency team that defeated ISIS.
But Patel is known for his work exposing the FBI's illegal surveillance operations against Trump, known as the Crossfire Hurricane. He worked as a staff member on the House Intelligence Committee during Trump's first term. He was the main author of the committee's memo detailing the FBI and DOJ abuses of the FISA process in obtaining a warrant for Trump Campaign Staff Carter Page. This work helped to expose the conspiracy by the intelligence reporting community to convince the public that Trump had conspired with the Russians in 2016.
Patel took him to social media shortly after confirmation, and as the new superintendent, he vowed to “make good cops the officers and rebuilding his trust in the FBI.” He also issued harsh warnings to those who wanted to harm Americans. We'll corner you in every corner of this planet. ”
Patel said he plans to focus on the Bureau's core mission to fully investigate even if there is a de facto constitutional basis. According to Patel, “The FBI's priority is to ensure that, if I'm confirmed, our community is protected, protected and has a park where children can play.”
