  • The announcement comes a week and a half after President-elect Donald Trump announced his intention to nominate loyalist Kash Patel for the position.

The article from The Franklin News Post discusses former President Donald Trump's intention to replace FBI Director Christopher Wray with Kash Patel if Trump were to win the 2024 presidential election. Trump has openly criticized Wray, whom he appointed in 2017, for not being loyal enough and for not aggressively pursuing investigations into his political adversaries. Kash Patel, a former Trump administration official known for his loyalty to Trump, has been floated as a potential replacement. Patel has a history of involvement in controversial political actions, including efforts to declassify documents related to the FBI's Crossfire Hurricane investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election. The article also mentions Trump's broader plans to overhaul the Department of Justice, aiming to install loyalists and potentially use the agency to target his political enemies, reflecting his ongoing feud with what he perceives as a "deep state" within the government.
