President Donald Trump took to Twitter to announce he will be nominating Christopher Wray to be the new director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). Mr. Wary served as Assistant Attorney General in charge of the Criminal Division under George W. Bush from 2003 to 2005.

“I will be nominating Christopher A. Wray, a man of impeccable credentials, to be the new Director of the FBI,” President Trump wrote. “Details to follow.”

The nomination comes one day before former FBI director James Comey, who was fired for his handling of the Clinton email investigation, testifies before the Senate Intelligence Committee. As People’s Pundit Daily reported Tuesday, Mr. Comey will not accuse the President of obstructing justice in the probe of former national security advisor Michael Flynn.

The former FBI director will also dispute President Trump’s claim that he told him on three separate occasions that he was not the target of an investigation.
