Summary

FBI Director Christopher Wray announced he will resign three years early, a move widely seen as bowing to political pressure from Trump.

Critics argue Wray’s resignation undermines the FBI’s independence and normalizes Trump’s governance style, allowing him to replace Wray with a loyalist who may prioritize Trump’s interests over the rule of law.

Wray’s decision avoids the potential political fallout of being fired but forfeits a chance to publicly challenge Trump’s grievances against the FBI, raising concerns about the erosion of institutional integrity.

      I wish we didn’t have a housing crisis in Canada or id be more open to getting Americans out of there to live somewhere safer at the moment. I’m truly scared for you guys down there and I don’t know what I can do to help.

        Americans know how to build, you have room… invite them up, provide supplies, build a few new cities.

        And yes, I realize it’s a bit more complicated than that.
