President Trump's nominee for Ambassador to Kuwait, Amer Ghalib, is facing intense bipartisan opposition in the Senate due to his past anti-Semitic remarks and controversial statements about Middle Eastern politics. During a heated hearing, both Republican and Democratic senators questioned Ghalib about his refusal to condemn the Muslim Brotherhood, his praise of Saddam Hussein, and his support for the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions movement. With all Democrats expected to oppose him and several Republicans voicing strong concerns, Ghalib's nomination appears unlikely to advance. This comes as another Trump nominee, Paul Ingrassia, withdrew from consideration for a separate post after racist text messages surfaced, highlighting growing scrutiny of the president's picks.
