President Donald Trump said Wednesday that he would nominate Christopher A. Wray, a former assistant attorney general, to lead the FBI.
Wray is a partner at King & Spalding, a law firm with offices in Washington, D.C. and Atlanta. He worked at the Department of Justice for two years in the George W. Bush administration.
Trump said Wray is ‘a man of impeccable credentials’ in a Wednesday morning tweet that appeared on his personal account.
The surprise announcement hit two hours before Trump’s acting FBI director, Andrew McCabe, was set to take the stand in the first of two Senate hearings this week that will examine the president’s shock firing of the bureau’s previous head, James Comey.
Comey is expected to dispute Trump’s version of the events that preceded his firing but stop short of testifying that he obstructed justice.
