Kash Patel, President Donald Trump’s choice to lead the FBI, passed through committee on Thursday, setting up consideration from the full Senate, likely next week.

Patel blazed through the Senate Judiciary Committee in a 12-10 party-line vote.

“So glad that @Kash_Patel has advanced out of the Judiciary Committee,” Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) said after the vote. “He will now advance to the Senate floor, where we should confirm him as soon as our rules will allow.”

“I just voted to advance @Kash_Patel’s nomination out of the Senate Judiciary Committee to the Senate floor and look forward to voting to confirm him to be our next FBI Director,” Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC) said.

“Today, my colleagues and I on the Senate Judiciary Committee voted to advance @Kash_Patel to be our next FBI Director,” Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) said, extending her congratulations.
