Jake Sullivan: The Current FBI Director Christopher Wray Has ‘Served with Distinction’

RUSH EXCERPT:
SULLIVAN: "Well, I’m not going to speak to President-Elect Trump’s nominees. I’ll let him and his transition team speak to that. I would just point out what the Biden Administration did in approaching the question of the FBI director. As you know, FBI directors are appointed for 10-year terms and the idea being that they extend beyond the term of any given president, and so we inherited an FBI director who actually had been appointed by President Trump, director Chris Wray who’s continued to serve in that role through the four years of the Biden Administration and served with distinction, served entirely insulated from politics where the partisan preferences of the current sitting president of the United States. This is a good, deep, bipartisan tradition that President Biden adhered to, and that’s really all I can say. As for me personally, I got 50 days left to continue to try to protect this country from threats, to continue to advance our national interests. I’m going to spend every day doing that, and not worry about other things."
