FBI Director Kash Patel is scheduled to appear before the Senate Judiciary Committee for an oversight hearing. The committee, led by Republicans, may focus on Patel's work to combat violent crime and counter drug trafficking. However, Democrats are likely to raise concerns about recent developments within the bureau.
These concerns include the firing of agents who investigated President Donald Trump and the investigation of Trump's perceived political adversaries. Patel's travel schedule, which has combined personal and professional activities, may also be discussed.
Further details about the hearing and the issues to be addressed are available from the source. The hearing is set to take place on Tuesday.
