Trump Eyes Major Overhaul of FBI Leadership
TL;DR Summary
President-elect Donald Trump is considering a significant shake-up at the FBI by potentially firing current director Christopher Wray and appointing Mike Rogers, a former FBI agent and Michigan congressman, as the new director. Trump is also contemplating Kash Patel, a controversial MAGA loyalist, for the deputy director role, despite concerns about his lack of experience and potential to politicize the bureau. This plan aims to balance Senate Republican concerns with MAGA supporters' demands for more allies in top positions. However, nothing is finalized until Trump announces it on Truth Social.
