“You’ve committed that the FBI will not be politicized,” Blumenthal began. “Here’s your first test. Will you commit that you will not tolerate the firing of the FBI agents who worked with the special counsel’s office” on the investigations against Trump.
Patel began his answer, saying, “Senator, I appreciate the time to visit with you,” at which point Blumenthal tried to put some bass in his voice as he interrupted. “It is a yes or no answer and it is your first test.”
Patel responded, “Senator, every FBI employee will be held to the absolute same standard and no one will be terminated for case assignments.”
Blumenthal, clearly not expecting Patel to answer in the affirmative, tried to steamroll over the nominee. “I'm not going to accept that answer because if you can't commit that those FBI agents will be protected from political retribution, we can't accept you as FBI director,” he bloviated.
Patel reiterated that “All FBI employees will be protected against political retribution.”
Blumenthal, who might be in dire need of a hearing aid, shot back, “Those individuals deserve to be protected from Trump retribution. That was your first test. You failed it.”
A bemused Patel asked, “By saying all FBI employees should be protected?”
