The White House has appointed Brian Driscoll as the acting FBI director, following the retirement of Paul Abbate. This decision is awaiting Senate confirmation of Kash Patel, nominated by President Trump. Driscoll, along with Robert Kissane, who will serve as acting deputy director, brings significant field leadership experience as Special Agents in Charge. Their understanding of the Bureau's mission equips them to guide the FBI effectively during this transitional phase, as emphasized by the Federal Bureau of Investigations Agents Association's support statement.
The FBIAA stands ready to support Acting Director Driscoll and Acting Deputy Director Kissane in these important roles.
As active Agents, Driscoll and Kissane have a deep understanding of the Bureau's mission, and the challenges faced by Agents which will serve both the FBI and the nation well during this transition.
