  The Senate voted Tuesday to confirm Christopher Wray as FBI director, nearly three months after President Trump fired former director James Comey. Senators voted 92-5 to confirm Wray, a former assistant attorney general, to a 10-year term. Unlike many of Trump's nominees, Wray has proved to be an uncontroversial choice. He will lead the FBI at a particularly turbulent time in its history, and he promised senators during his confirmation hearing that he will remain independent in the face of any political pressure from the White House.
