About
The FBI Director oversees the Federal Bureau of Investigation and reports directly to the Attorney General. Appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate, the Director serves a single term of up to 10 years, a limit established to prevent extended tenures like J. Edgar Hoover’s. President-elect Trump has nominated Kash Patel for this role, but he has yet to be confirmed by the Senate. (Source: FBI.gov)
