President-elect Donald Trump, who hired outgoing FBI Director Christopher Wray in 2017 for a ten year term at the Bureau, is responding to news Wray submitted his resignation.
"The resignation of Christopher Wray is a great day for America as 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. Under the leadership of Christopher Wray, the FBI illegally raided my home, without cause, worked diligently on illegally impeaching and indicting me, and has done everything else to interfere with the success and future of America," Trump posted on Truth Social. "They have used their vast powers to threaten and destroy many innocent Americans, some of which will never be able to recover from what has been done to them."
Meanwhile Trump's nominee to replace Wray, Kash Patel, is being well received on Capitol Hill.
"Kash Patel is the most qualified Nominee to lead the FBI in the Agency’s History, and is committed to helping ensure that Law, Order, and Justice will be brought back to our Country again, and soon. As everyone knows, I have great respect for the rank-and-file of the FBI, and they have great respect for me. They want to see these changes every bit as much as I do but, more importantly, the American People are demanding a strong, but fair, System of Justice. We want our FBI back, and that will now happen. I look forward to Kash Patel’s confirmation, so that the process of Making the FBI Great Again can begin. Thank you!" Trump continued.
Wray's resignation comes as no surprise ahead of Trump's inauguration on January 20, 2025
Hi can someone explain to me if this means Biden now appoints someone that is not easily replaced? Or?
Wray knew the Hunter Biden laptop was real but remained silent while the Democrats, their media, and the 51 intelligence “experts” falsely decried the laptop as Russian disinformation.
Next I’d like to see Merrick Garland in a perp walk down Pennsylvania Avenue and dumped into a waiting shuttle to Guantanamo Bay.
Wray is staying on until the inauguration.
No. Wray is staying until the regime change.
What Trump should have said: “You can run, but you can’t hide. My FBI will hunt you down for what you have done.”.
Gotcha. Okay great!
Prayers up for KASH YES!
Make sure he doesn’t walk off with the kitchen sink... (the Epstein client list)!
IMHO, Wray is giving a clean break. He’s basically telegraphing to the Senate that they shouldn’t waste time approving Patel or the FBI will have an interim leader come inauguration day (which is when Wray resigns).
I don’t know about that “rank and file” thing. It may jut be rotten to the core.

There has to be accountability and consequences. Failing to do that will mean we learned nothing and the same problems will occur in the future.
Investigate, illuminate and indict.
I would not be surprise if a deal was made between Trump and Wray. Where Wray leaves on his own and does not get prosecuted for his crimes. Politics is a slimy thing.
Well, prosecuting Wray might bring some solace.
Anybody approached now will decline the position knowing they would just be fired on January 20th. The Deputy Director will step in until Inauguration day.
I pray for all the truth of the events surrounding Jan 6th to be unveiled and for Trump and anyone wrongly imprisoned to be fully vindicated in the historical record.
That’s the same crap Hannity has been saying for years. Part of me thinks Hannity is deep state. Weird thing is Hannity and Trump are pretty close friends.
I’ll be pissed if this is the case.
