The article from Just The News discusses former President Donald Trump's reaction to the resignation of FBI Director Christopher Wray. Trump expressed his approval of Wray's departure, suggesting it marks the end of what he describes as the "weaponization" of the FBI.

Trump's comments were made in the context of broader discussions about the politicization of federal law enforcement agencies. The article also touches on the implications of Wray's resignation for the future direction of the FBI under new leadership, with Trump hoping for a return to what he considers non-partisan law enforcement.
