From MSNBC.

FBI Director Christopher Wray has broken a norm and announced he will resign long before his 10-year term ends to accommodate Donald Trump’s wish to choose Kash Patel as his new FBI Director. This comes after Trump abruptly fired James Comey in 2017 to replace him with Wray. Now, Kash Patel is promising to turn the FBI into exactly what he accuses it of. He claims the FBI is a partisan, political organization that goes after its enemies, yet he’s promising that this is exactly what it will be if he gets confirmed. MSNBC’s Ayman Mohyeldin is joined by former U.S. Attorney’s Barbara McQuade and Harry Litman to discuss the threat Patel poses and what J. Edgar Hoover’s infamous reign at the FBI can teach us.
