Trump to nominate Christopher Wray as next FBI director

In a statement, Wray called his selection a “great honor” and said, “I look forward to serving the American people with integrity as the leader of what I know firsthand to be an extraordinary group of men and women who have dedicated their careers to protecting this country.”

Trump said Wray would “again serve his country as a fierce guardian of the law and model of integrity once the Senate confirms him to lead the FBI.”

It is unclear how soon that could happen. Sen. Charles E. Grassley (R-Iowa), who chairs the Judiciary Committee, said the panel would begin consideration of his nomination once receiving it formally, which he indicated might take a few weeks.
