How did FBI Director nominee Kash Patel respond to President Trump's decision to commute sentences for January 6th violent offenders?
During a rare political moment, FBI Director nominee Kash Patel broke slightly with President Trump by expressing disagreement with Trump's decision to reduce sentences for some of January 6th's most violent offenders. This unusual divergence from Trump's position came as the Senate was holding a procedural vote to advance Patel's nomination toward what appears to be his likely confirmation as FBI Director. The disagreement represents an uncommon instance where a Trump nominee publicly differed with the President on a high-profile policy decision involving the January 6th Capitol riot participants.
