Nov 19, 2024, 07:17 PM
Senate Republicans have rejected a proposal by some advisers to President-elect Donald Trump to replace the FBI with private investigators for conducting background checks on high-level nominees. This move was intended to expedite the confirmation process for Trump's appointees but has met with resistance from GOP senators. Additionally, Vice President-elect J.D. Vance has confirmed that he and Trump are interviewing candidates to replace FBI Director Chris Wray, whose term officially ends in 2027. Wray has been preparing for the possibility of being replaced by Trump next year.
