Kash Patel’s confirmation as FBI director moved forward in the Republican-controlled U.S. Senate with a 51-47 vote to break the filibuster. Republicans praised Patel’s experience as a prosecutor and national security aide in the Trump administration, hoping he will restore the FBI’s focus on law enforcement. Patel pledged to reduce crime, including rapes, drug overdoses, and homicides, if confirmed. Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley highlighted Patel’s thorough vetting, noting his role in exposing the Crossfire Hurricane investigation. All Democrats on the committee opposed Patel, accusing him of lying in his confirmation hearing. Despite this, Patel’s confirmation is set for final approval. If confirmed, he will serve a 10-year term as the FBI’s top law enforcement officer.
