William Webster, a former FBI director and head
of the CIA,
is urging senators to reject Kash Patel as FBI director and Tulsi Gabbard for
director of intelligence.
Webster,
who turned 100 this year and is the only person to hold both positions, said
neither Patel nor Gabbard were qualified for their positions, expressing
concern about Patel’s loyalty to President-elect Donald Trump.
"His
record of executing the president's directives suggest a loyalty to individuals
rather than the rule of law — a dangerous precedent for an agency tasked with
impartial enforcement of justice," Webster said in a letter to
senators Thursday obtained by Politico.
Webster
said Gabbard had a "profound lack" of experience in
intelligence.
"Effective
management of our intelligence community requires unparalleled expertise to
navigate the complexities of global threats and to maintain the trust of allied
nations," he wrote. "Without that trust, our ability to
safeguard sensitive secrets and collaborate internationally is severely
diminished."
Trump's
transition did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Politico.
A
Republican, Webster was appointed FBI director in 1978 by then-President Jimmy
Carter, serving until 1987, when then-President Ronald Reagan named him CIA
director. He held the position until 1991.
In
2020, Webster endorsed Joe Biden over Trump, claiming Trump was unfit to be
president.
