Trump nominates Kash Patel as FBI Director

President-elect Donald Trump has named longtime ally Kashyap "Kash" Patel, who has been a frequent and harsh critic of the FBI, to serve as the bureau's next director in the new administration. Earlier in the day, Trump nominated real estate developer Charles Kushner, father of Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner, to serve as ambassador to France. Hillsborough County Sheriff Chad Chronister was selected to be the next Administrator for the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) by President-elect Trump.
