The head of the Senate Judicial Committee hit the Democrats in the group this week for their attempts to schedule a second confirmation audience of the President Donald TrumpFBI director director Kash Patel, who described the effort on Tuesday night as a “delay tactic” designed to prevent Patel from taking the reins of the Agency.
In a letter Tuesday night, Grassley criticized what he described as the Senator Dick Dubin Senator “ And other court Democrats to promote a second audience, noting that Patel testified more than five hours before the Committee, and spread thousands of registrations to the group, as well as almost 150 pages of answers to the written legislators.
“No one convinced himself for the unsuccessful efforts of the minority for discomfort and evil Kash Patel,” said Grassley. “In addition, it is outrageous to say that a candidate should come before the Senate to respond to the government actions that took place before their time in an agency. “

“Given the severity of these matters, which directly have the integrity of Mr. Patel, their suitability to direct the first agency of the country’s law and their consideration for the protection of classified information, we ask that the President program it.

Lawyer General, Emil Bove.
The two groups of FBI agents asked the court for an emergency injunction relief to block the FBI agents’ names or identities involved in January 6 research to share effect on FBI work or efforts of retaliation of the sparks in the office.
Lawyers of the Federal Bureau of Investigation Agent Association, a voluntary professional association that represents more than 14,000 special FBI agents active and retired, told journalists on Tuesday night That they see the application on January 6 as a “prelude” for potential adverse actions or mass dismissals in the office, citing fears that the name of the agents may be subject to threats, harassment or oriented by the public or inside the office.
