FBI Director Kash Patel will face questioning Tuesday by a House Appropriations Committee panel on oversight and the fiscal 2026 budget for the intelligence agency, just more than 100 days since President Trump returned to the White House.
His testimony comes as the FBI has faced scrutiny over layoffs amid the administration’s overhaul of the federal workforce and after Patel was removed as the leader of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.
The hearing is scheduled to begin at 2 p.m. EDT.
