New Delhi: After a long wait, in what might mean a rounding up of the Trump cabinet and picks of top positions, Kash Patel took oath as the ninth director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation on Saturday by placing his hand on the Bhagavad Gita. The oath ceremony was administered by the US Attorney General Pam Bondi in the Indian Treaty Room in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building (EEOB) on the White House campus.

US President Donald Trump praised Patel’s appointment, citing his support among FBI agents. “One of the reasons I love Kash and wanted to put him in is because of the respect the agents had for him,” Trump said. “He will go down as the best ever at that position. Turned out he was very easy to get approved. He is a tough and strong guy. He has his opinions. Trey Gowdy came out with an incredible statement and said that Kash is an incredible person and people don’t realise it. When he said that, there was no doubt left. It was a big statement made by someone who is respected and is on the moderate side,” he further added.

Since coming back to office, Donald Trump has not wasted time in selecting a cabinet.........
