On Wednesday, FBI Director Chris Wray said he will step down from his post early next year, after Republican President-elect Donald Trump signaled his intent to fire the veteran official and replace him with firebrand Kash Patel.
His resignation makes him the second straight FBI director driven out by Trump, who during his first term in office fired Wray's predecessor James Comey, after souring on him over the FBI's investigations into alleged contacts between Trump's 2016 campaign and Russia.
Wray will leave before the end of the 10-year term that Trump himself appointed him to in 2017.
