FBI Director Kash Patel twice appealed to a Republican senator to stop a Democratic colleague from grilling him, but was promptly shut down.
Patel, 46, testified on Tuesday before the Senate Judiciary Committee, where he was pressed about a host of issues, including whether his bureau plans to investigate a Russian oligarch paying for Donald Trump Jr.’s wedding celebration. The Trump appointee also suggested the bureau may send federal agents to polling places in the November midterms.
California Sen. Adam Schiff’s questions seemed to irk Patel, who tried but failed to have Chairman Chuck Grassley put a stop to them.
