Multiple sources said that Trump is considering replacing FBI Director Kash Patel in the coming months, due to negative coverage recently caused by his abuse of official aircraft, using Secret Service for his girlfriend, and public internal conflicts with other officials from the Trump faction. Although the White House publicly denied the rumors and stated that Patel is a "key member," sources described him as "walking on thin ice," and senior FBI official Andrew Bailey, who is seen as a potential successor, has become a "reasonable choice" within the White House. Attorney General Bonta and Deputy Attorney General Blanch are also dissatisfied with Patel repeatedly taking credit on social media that interferes with investigations. According to the Federal Vacancies Reform Act, Bailey could take over as acting director as early as December 15, with a term lasting up to 210 days.
