REPORT: Christopher Wray Preparing Resignation As FBI Director
By Joe Cunningham | 10:09 PM on December 09, 2024

FBI Director Christopher Wray plans to resign on or before Inauguration Day, according to recent reports. The move, widely seen as preemptive, reflects growing pressure from Republican lawmakers, led by Senator Charles Grassley, and signals yet another shift in leadership for an agency that has been at the center of political and institutional controversies over the past several years.

While Wray’s resignation isn’t entirely unexpected, it raises important questions about the future of the FBI, the challenges it faces, and the public’s trust in one of the nation’s most powerful institutions. This moment offers an opportunity to reflect on Wray’s tenure, the criticisms that have mounted against him, and what a new era of leadership under Donald Trump’s administration could mean.

Wray, who was appointed FBI director in 2017 by former President Donald Trump, appears to be stepping down to avoid an inevitable firing under Trump’s return to the White House. Sources close to Wray suggest that he does not want to endure a public dismissal, which aligns with reports that his “days were numbered” under a Trump administration.

Wray’s potential resignation highlights the tense relationship between the FBI and Trump-era Republicans, who have long expressed dissatisfaction with the bureau’s leadership. This friction has been fueled by high-profile incidents like the raid on Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home and whistleblower allegations of political bias within the FBI. For critics, Wray’s leadership symbolizes an agency in turmoil, accused of failing to address internal misconduct while projecting partisanship in its investigative priorities.

A significant catalyst for Wray’s decision was Senator Charles Grassley’s scathing letter earlier this week. Grassley, who will assume chairmanship of the Judiciary Committee next month, delivered a damning critique of Wray’s tenure, stating that it was "time for you and your deputy to move on to the next chapter in your lives."

And receive a presidential pardon the morning of January 20th.

It would be pretty funny if Kamala 25th amendmented Biden by surprise cutting off his ability to pardon people at the last minute.

Chris Wray’s legacy will be turning the world’s most powerful law enforcement agency into a domestic terror operation that includes raiding the home of the former president, entrapping individuals into politically-oriented hoaxes like Whitmer fednapping, colluding with Big Tech to protect the Biden crime family, and using the FBI counterterrorism task force to investigate, raid, and arrest nearly 1,600 Americans who protested the 2020 election on January 6.

His failures include record crime, a bleeding southern border, out of control fentanyl crisis, and historic low trust in the FBI.

Seems impossible but the worst FBI director in US history. The damage he caused this country may never be fully repaired.

Biden will pardon him.  That is why he resigned now and not on 1/20.

NEW: FBI Director Christopher Wray announces he will resign at the end of President Biden’s term in January.

“After weeks of careful thought, I have decided the right thing for the bureau is for me to serve until the end of the current administration in January and then step down.”

“This is not easy for me. I love this place. I love our mission and I love our people.”
