FBI Director Wray Resigns, Trump Eyes Kash Patel as Successor

FBI Director Christopher Wray announced his resignation effective at the end of the Biden administration, allowing President-elect Donald Trump to appoint a new director without firing Wray. Trump has nominated Kash Patel, a loyalist, to replace Wray, who has faced criticism from Trump over FBI investigations into Trump's actions. Wray's decision aims to maintain the FBI's focus and avoid further political entanglement. Trump welcomed Wray's resignation, criticizing his tenure and expressing confidence in Patel's nomination.
