FBI Director Christopher Wray Resigns Amid Trump's Criticism, Kash Patel Nomination
Dec 12, 2024, 03:15 PM
FBI Director Christopher Wray has announced his intention to resign at the end of President Joe Biden's term in January, ahead of President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration. This decision comes shortly after Trump nominated Kash Patel, a staunch Trump loyalist, to replace Wray. Wray's resignation aims to avoid further politicization of the FBI, focusing instead on the agency's mission to serve the American people. Trump has expressed his approval of Wray's resignation, calling it a 'great day for America' and criticizing Wray's leadership, particularly regarding the FBI's actions against him, including the raid on Trump's Mar-a-Lago residence. Wray's tenure was marked by significant investigations, including those involving Trump, Biden, and his son Hunter Biden. Despite his efforts to maintain the FBI's integrity, Wray faced criticism from both sides of the political spectrum for various actions taken under his watch, such as the FBI's role in the January 6 Capitol riot, the surveillance of Catholics, targeting of parents at school board meetings, and the investigation into Hunter Biden.
