politicsTrumpelectionFBIPatel

Who is Kash Patel?
President-elect Donald Trump has picked Kash Patel, a loyalist and promoter of Trump's false stolen election claims, as his choice to lead the FBI if current director Chris Wray resigns or is fired. Patel would need Senate confirmation and would take over a 10-year term that doesn't end until 2027. However, the move has been met with outrage from Democrats and some former Trump officials.

Why Should We Care?
This decision could have significant implications for the FBI and the country as a whole. Patel's promotion of Trump's false election claims raises questions about his ability to lead the agency impartially.
