Attorney General Jeff Sessions told the Washington Examiner that he believes the FBI needs a “fresh start” following FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe’s exit.
Said Sessions: “Well, I have believed it was important to have a fresh start at the FBI, and actually, it was in my letter to the President when I recommended Comey’s removal. I used the words, ‘fresh start,’ and the FBI director is Chris Wray, a very talented, smart, capable leader.”
Sessions said there has been an “erosion” of public trust and the department needs to earn that back.
