FBI Director Christopher Wray to Resign Before Trump Takes Office
ai generated text
Christopher Wray, the Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), has announced his intention to resign from his position. This decision comes after weeks of careful thought, according to Wray, and is expected to take place at the end of President Joe Biden's term in January. The reason behind Wray's resignation is not explicitly stated, but it is implied that he wants to avoid a potential collision with the new administration led by President-elect Donald Trump, which may have further entangled the FBI in investigations into Trump's conduct. Trump has already nominated Kash Patel to lead the law-enforcement agency, further solidifying the expectation of Wray's resignation.
Under Director Wray's principled leadership, the FBI has worked to fulfill the Justice Department's mission to keep our country safe, protect civil rights, and uphold the rule of law.
I will be ready to serve the American people on day one.
What absolutely cannot, must not change is our commitment to doing the right thing, the right way, every time.
In my view, this is the best way to avoid dragging the bureau deeper into the fray, while reinforcing the values and principles that are so important to how we do our work.
We're not on any one side. We're on the American people's side – the constitution's side. And no matter what's happening out there, in here we've got to stay committed to doing our work the right way every time – with rigor and integrity.
That means following the facts wherever they lead, no matter who likes it, or doesn't – because there's always someone who doesn't like it. It means conducting investigations without fear or favor.
The idea that I am biased against conservatives seems somewhat insane to me, given my own personal background.
This is not easy for me. I love this place, I love our mission and I love our people.
There are serious problems at the FBI. The American public knows it. They expect to see sweeping change.
We will now restore the rule of law for all Americans.
It will end the Weaponization of what has become known as the United States Department of Injustice.
I just don't know what happened to him. We will now restore the Rule of Law for all Americans.
He has led the FBI's efforts to aggressively confront the broad range of threats facing our country – from nation-state adversaries and foreign and domestic terrorism to violent crime, cybercrime, and financial crime.
