US President-elect Donald Trump's newly appointed FBI director has proposed significant changes to the agency, including shutting down the FBI Hoover building. The director stated, 'I’d shut down the FBI Hoover building on Day 1 and reopen it the next day as a museum of the deep state.' This statement reflects a broader intention to reform the FBI, which the director believes has gained excessive power. He has also indicated plans to strip the bureau of its intelligence-gathering role and purge disloyal agents, signaling a shift in the agency's operational focus under Trump's administration.
