FBI Director Wray Resigns Amid Trump's Nomination of Patel
Dec 12, 2024, 10:19 PM
FBI Director Christopher Wray has announced his intention to resign at the end of President Joe Biden's term in January, amidst political tensions and investigations involving both former President Donald Trump and President Biden. Wray's decision comes after President-elect Trump expressed his intention to nominate Kash Patel, a Trump loyalist, as the next FBI director. Trump has criticized Wray for the FBI's actions, including the search of his Mar-a-Lago residence for classified documents. Wray's tenure was marked by efforts to keep the FBI out of political controversies, but he faced significant challenges with investigations into Trump's ties to Russia, the January 6 Capitol insurrection, and the handling of classified information by both Trump and Biden. Trump celebrated Wray's resignation, calling it a 'great day for America' and looking forward to Patel's confirmation to 'Make the FBI Great Again.' Patel has advocated for the closure of the FBI's Washington headquarters, turning it into a 'museum of the deep state.'
