Bu içerikte, FBI Direktörü Christopher Wray’in görevinden erken ayrılacağı, Cumhuriyetçi Donald Trump’ın tecrübeli yetkiliyi görevden almayı ve onun yerine ateşli Kash Patel’i atamayı planladığı belirtilmektedir. Trump, Wray’i 2017’de atamıştı ancak sonradan FBI’ın 2016 seçim kampanyasıyla Rusya arasındaki iddia edilen temasları araştırmasına ilişkin soruşturmalar nedeniyle Comey’i görevden aldığı için Wray’e de soğumuştu. Wray, mevcut yönetimin sonuna kadar hizmet etmeye karar verdiğini açıklamıştır. Trump ve sert müttefikleri, FBI’a yönelik eleştirilerde bulunmuş ve Trump’ın Florida tatil köşkünde yapılan aramaya tepki göstermişlerdir. Trump, suçsuz olduğunu iddia etmiş ve kendisine yöneltilen tüm suçlamaları politik nedenlerle yapıldığını savunmuştur. Cumhuriyetçi müttefikleri, FBI’ın siyasallaştığını iddia etmişlerdir, ancak Joe Biden’ın soruşturma süreçlerine müdahale ettiğine dair herhangi bir kanıt bulunmamaktadır.

The FBI’s director, Christopher Wray, will step down from his post early next year, the bureau said on Wednesday, after Republican Donald Trump signaled his intent to fire the veteran official and replace him with firebrand Kash Patel.

Trump himself had appointed Wray, a fellow Republican, to his 10-year term in 2017, after firing his predecessor, James Comey, who the then-president soured on over the FBI’s investigations into alleged contacts between his 2016 campaign and Russia.

“After weeks of careful thought, I’ve 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,” Wray told FBI employees today, the agency said in a statement.

Trump and his hardline allies turned on Wray, and the FBI more generally, after agents conducted a court-approved search of Trump’s Florida resort in 2022 to recover classified documents that he had retained after leaving office.

That sparked one of two federal prosecutions Trump faced while out of power, neither of which went to trial. Trump denied wrongdoing and described all the cases against him as politically motivated. Federal prosecutors ended their efforts after his election, citing longstanding justice department policy not to prosecute a sitting president.

Trump’s Republican allies joined him in alleging that the FBI had become politicized, though there is no evidence that Joe Biden interfered with its investigative processes.
