Donald Trump said he expects to make a “fast decision” on a replacement for fired FBI Director James Comey, perhaps before he departs the U.S. on May 19 for his first foreign trip as president. Trump said the candidates under consideration to lead the FBI – White House officials have identified 11 of them so far – are “outstanding people.” He said most are “very well known” and of the “highest level.”

As Bloomberg reports, the 11 candidates under consideration as a permanent replacement for Comey:

SEN. JOHN CORNYN

Cornyn is the No. 2 Senate Republican and a former Texas attorney general and state Supreme Court justice. He has been a member of the Senate GOP leadership team for a decade and serves on the Senate Judiciary Committee. In the aftermath of Comey’s dismissal, Cornyn said Trump was “within his authority” to fire him and said it would not affect the investigation of possible Russian ties to Trump’s presidential campaign.
