Indian-American Lawyer Kash Patel Tipped for Major Position in Trump Administration

Now that Donald Trump is the new President-elect of the United States, there is talk about Kashyap “Kash” Patel. Kash is an Indian-American lawyer. According to the several news claims he can get a chance to play an important role in second term of Trump’s government.

He is recognized as a strong Trump ally and has a background in both defense and intelligence roles from Trump’s first term. Patel is well known for questioning the Russia election interference investigation, Patel is widely supported by Trump loyalists for a possible role as CIA Director—though this appointment needs Senate approval. Despite the Republican majority, there’s no certainty of his confirmation. If he doesn’t secure this position Patel may be appointed to the National Security Council instead.

Patel’s career path is diverse; he began as a public defender, taking on serious criminal cases, and later became a counterterrorism prosecutor with the Department of Justice, working on cases linked to groups like Al-Qa’ida and ISIS. During Trump’s previous term, Patel served as Principal Deputy to the Acting Director of National Intelligence, overseeing the country’s intelligence agencies, and later held a senior role in counterterrorism at the National Security Council.
