Following the tragic collision between a military helicopter and an American Airlines jet in D.C., Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, has expressed his determination to proceed with the high-profile Senate confirmation hearing of President Donald Trump's nominee to head up the FBI, Kash Patel.
Despite the somber atmosphere in the nation's capital, Grassley emphasized the importance of moving forward with the confirmation process, stating that there have been no changes as far as he is concerned. He acknowledged that if the leadership of the United States Senate deems it necessary to postpone the hearing, he would comply, but as chairman, he believes it should proceed as planned due to the critical need for a new leader at the FBI.
