Senate Judiciary Ranking Member Dick Durbin expressed concerns about President Donald Trump's nominee to lead the FBI, Kash Patel, following a meeting between the two men. Durbin stated that Patel lacks the necessary experience, judgment, and temperament to serve as the head of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
According to Durbin, Patel's confirmation hearing is tentatively scheduled for the near future, pending approval from Republican Chairman Chuck Grassley. Durbin's office recently received Patel's FBI background check, which he has yet to review.
