Graham Votes To Confirm Kash Patel

WASHINGTON –
U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina) today made this statement after voting to confirm Kash Patel as Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). Patel was confirmed by a vote of 51-49.
“I am extremely pleased to have cast my vote to confirm Kash Patel as the new director of the FBI. Kash has been a federal defense attorney and prosecutor, and he has been deeply involved in counter terrorism practice and policy. He was also one of the key figures who discovered the Russian hoax against President Trump.
“Kash is the right man to clean up the FBI to restore Americans’ confidence and trust that the FBI is not a political organization, it is a law enforcement organization. The men and women of the FBI will be in good hands with Kash Patel.”
