Washington (AP) -Kash Patel, who chose President Donald Trump to lead the FBI, did not have an “enemy list” on Thursday, and the bureau under his leader is the enemy of the president. He asserted the Democratic Party, who is deeply skeptical, that he will not seek retaliation for the enemy. Start a survey for political purposes.
Please see the hearing of the above player.
“I have no interest or desire. If it is confirmed, it will not retreat,” Patel said to the controversy confirmation and hearing hearing. “FBI has no politics. There is no retaliation measure taken by the FBI.”
The security was to reduce the permanent attacks from the Democratic Party in the huge catalog of his grilled Cent statement through the hearing on Thursday. They, when these statements described some of the riots on January 6 as “political prisoners,” he asked for a purge of the anti -playing card “Conspiracy” in the government and the news media. He said that he raised an amazing question about loyalty. 。
Senator Sheldon White House, a Democratic Party of Lord Island, stated: His Senator Amy Crob Cur from Minnesota, a colleague, later added as follows. It is not several conspiracy. That’s what Patel actually said. “
Patel defended himself by claiming that the Democratic Party has put his comments and social media posts in a “glotesque context”. He suggested that he has a “enemy list” includes a long list of former government officials that he wrote in 2023, which he wrote. It was “complete misunderstanding”.
“The important thing when confirmed as a FBI director is the system of systems that have been completely dedicated to strict obedience and specific justice to the Constitution,” said Patel. Ta.
Patel was chosen in November and was appointed Christopher Ray. Christopher Rei led one of the leading federal law enforcement in Japan for more than seven years, but was driven out of the job he was appointed after Trump was considered inadequate to him.
Patel is a former assistant to the House of Representatives Intelligence Committee and former Federal Prosecutor who worked for Trump’s first administration. He surprised the critic to the rhetoric -with dozens of podcasts and books he wrote -he showed his loyalty to Trump and attacked the decision of the institution that he was required to lead. 。
However, Patel called on several opportunities to reassure the Democratic Party for his FBI to be independent of the White House. He acknowledged that Trump had lost his 2020 election, and only acknowledged that Joe Biden was sworn as the president. However, he did not support Trump supporters, including violent riots who attacked the attack on January 6, 2021.
“I don’t agree with commuting for individuals who have violated the law enforcement agency,” Patel said in questions from Senator Dick Darbin, the top Democratic Party of the Committee. Darbin first opposed Patel.
Darbin is important for the United States to keep the United States safer from terrorism, violent crime, and other threats, and the state needs a FBI director who “understands the significance of this mission and is ready on the first day. Political complaints.
Patel said that if it was confirmed that it was transparent, he would not involve the FBI in the decision of the prosecutor’s category, and said he was with a lawyer of the Judicial Ministry.
“First, let’s make a good police officer,” Patel wrote by outlining his priority. “Leadership means supporting agents in their mission of arresting criminals and protecting citizens. If confirmed, I will strengthen the existence of field agents nationwide and at the headquarters. Focusing on the rationalization of the operation is important for the FBI mission.
Patel discovered a common cause with Trump on the government’s monitoring and their “deep nation”.
He told reporters that Trump was a victim of “unconstitutional circus” in a recent criminal trial in Trump in New York.
The close bond is away from the modern precedent of the FBI director, which is trying to keep the president into the length of the arm.
Trump’s Republican Allies, who share the President’s belief that the FBI has been political, gathers around Patel, pledges to support him, shakes him, and provides necessary changes. I am looking at it.
Senator Chuck Glasley, the Republican President of the Committee, tried to slow down the attack on Patel by focusing on the need to reform the FBI, which was said to have been weapons.
In recent years, the FBI has been involved in many political investigations, including the two federal inquiries to Trump, which have accused, as well as the probes of Baaden and son’s hunters.
“It’s not surprising that the public’s trust has declined,” which is suffering from abuse, lack of transparency, and the weapon of the enforcement agencies, “said Glasley. “Nevertheless, the FBI is important for Japan’s laws and order, and continues to be an essential institution.”
He later added as follows. Patel, if you are confirmed, you will be in charge of the FBI in the crisis. “
