Republican presidential candidate and former Vice President Mike Pence told the New York Post that he is ready to "clean house" at the top of the Department of Justice, including getting rid of FBI Director Christopher Wray his first day in office if he is elected.
"The American people have lost confidence in the Department of Justice," Pence told the publication during an exclusive interview. "And if I'm president of the United States, on day one, we're going to clean house on the top floor of the Department of Justice and bring in a whole new group of people.”
According to the interview, the FBI director would be among those cleaning out their desks in January 2025.
Pence said the indictment of former President Donald Trump on federal charges for mishandling documents after he left the White House was "a sad day for our country," but he also said the indictment "includes serious charges, and I can't defend what is alleged."
