NY Times: Trump Has Unusual Vacancies to Fill

President-elect Donald Trump will replace officials in three positions that do not traditionally turn over during a presidential transition, including FBI director, IRS commissioner, and Voice of America director, The New York Times reported.

Trump selected former federal prosecutor Kash Patel to head the FBI, Rep. Billy Long, R-Mo., to replace Danny Werfel as IRS commissioner, and Kari Lake, a former TV news anchor, to lead Voice of America.

Patel will replace Christopher Wray, who Trump appointed in 2017 and said last week he will step down as FBI director although by statute, FBI directors serve for 10 years. Werfel was appointed by President Joe Biden in 2023 for a five-year term.
