White House press secretary Jen Psaki gives press briefing | USA TODAY

White House press secretary Jen Psaki holds briefing on President Biden's first full day in office.
RELATED:

President Joe Biden will keep Christopher Wray as director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, a source familiar with the administration’s plans confirmed to USA TODAY.

Wray, appointed by former President Donald Trump in 2017 after he fired James Comey, is in his fourth year of a 10-year term.

CNN first reported Biden’s intentions to retain Wray, a move that was widely expected. White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki was noncommittal whether Biden would keep Wray during her first press briefing Wednesday night. She said she hadn’t spoken to Biden about the matter.

Ahead of the presidential election, FBI agents in October voiced their support for Wray, warning Trump and Biden, then the Democratic nominee, that his untimely removal could "undermine stability" within the federal government's premier law enforcement agency.

The unusual action by the FBI Agents Association, representing 14,000 active and retired agents, came as Trump was weighing a number of key staff changes after the election, including the dismissal of Wray.

    1. @CTresident sometimes the correct answer is I don’t have an answer right now. That’s integrity. Trump famously made up answers when he didn’t know. That’s stupidity.

    1. @Stéphane Baribeau flip flopping fauci? never watched the compilation videos of him flip flopping on nearly everything? oh my

  1. One of the new thing about this administration : if you don’t know the answer, don’t guess 😂 well said mister Fauci 😁

    1. His face was priceless. Said everything. I would like his clip to analyze by “Body language ghost”.

  2. Hahaha…”If you don’t know the answer, don’t guess..just say you don’t know the answer..chuckle “ LOL!
    That was awesome! 👍❤️

  3. If there is vaccines just sitting on the shelfs going to waste. Then is it going to be used by others that’s not in the group aloud ? I think its better in someone’s arm then in the trash.

  4. The covid vaccine should be monitored and delivered by military personnel to make sure that they are being distributed and given to the correct people according to CDC regulations and not given to medical family members that are NOT high priority.

  5. Pr Trump is GREAT….IF NO HIM WHO CAN STOP CHINA….THANK 📯🇺🇸💪 4 years he changed our wolrd 🙏🙏🙏

    1. This one has natural beauty no artificial eye lashes, inappropriate clothes, and lies after another lies.

    2. @Shahla Karimi she looks like carrot top, and can barely utter anything besides “umm ummm”. Just like sleepy joe 😂😂

  6. Looking forward to another day of watching these amateurs pretend – with MSM scrambling to maintain a failed narrative that they aren’t. I’m looking forward to watching this MORE than the Ltards. By the end of four years, I bet most will actually be showering daily and talking out issues rather than burning down cities.
