Grassley Updates Kash Patel’s Confirmation Vote Timeline Following Wins By Gabbard, RFK Jr.

While President Donald Trump has seen an impressive number of his top nominees sail through the confirmation process, a trio of high-level picks were seen by some as particularly controversial.

After a series of often heated Senate hearings, both Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Tulsi Gabbard advanced through their respective committees on the way to a vote by the full Senate to be confirmed as Health and Human Services Secretary and Director of National Intelligence, respectively.

The third nominee, Kash Patel, has been nominated to lead the FBI, and Senate Judiciary Committee Chair Chuck Grassley (R-IA) said the panel has enough information to call for a vote.

As The Hill reported:

“Further hearings on his nomination are unnecessary,” Grassley said in a statement Tuesday.
