President-elect Donald Trump announced that he plans to replace Wray—whom he appointed in 2017—with election-denying, far-right loyalist Kash Patel. FBI directors have a 10-year tenure unless they are fired or resign. And most people in Congress seem to think Wray has done a fine job and deserves to fulfill his term until 2027.

Kash Patel, President-elect Trump's pick to serve as the next FBI director, was the target of an Iran-backed cyberattack, according to senior law enforcement officials.
