John Bolton Urges Senate to Reject Trump's FBI Director Nominee Kash Patel 100-0
Dec 1, 2024, 03:59 PM
John Bolton, former National Security Advisor, has publicly called for the U.S. Senate to reject President Trump's nomination of Kash Patel as the new FBI Director. Bolton made these remarks in interviews with NBC News and other media outlets, where he compared Patel to Lavrenty Beria, a notorious figure from Stalin's secret police, suggesting that Patel's appointment could lead to an overreach of power within the FBI. Bolton's opposition to Trump's pick for FBI Director is strong, urging a unanimous Senate vote against the confirmation.
