FBI Director Christopher Wray is resigning at the end of the Biden administration.

CBS News reported:

FBI Director Christopher Wray announced he will resign from his post at the end of the current administration. He will leave the bureau in advance of President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration next month.

He made the announcement during a town hall with FBI employees on Wednesday.

Trump appointed Wray — a former federal prosecutor and counterterrorism official — as FBI director in 2017 for a 10-year term after firing James Comey, but Wray has since come under fire from Trump and his allies on Capitol Hill over the FBI’s handling of investigations into the president-elect. He has remained director under President Biden, but Trump previously said he intended to remove Wray and replace him with Kash Patel, a former GOP congressional staffer who was tapped by Trump during his first term for roles in the Defense Department and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence.

Wray’s announcement clears the way for Patel to lead the FBI in his second term Patel has been meeting in the Capitol with senators who will vote on his confirmation.
