And we have to go build that trust back. We can\u2019t build that trust back if Christopher Wray is the head of the FBI,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut it\u2019s not just Chris Wray. You\u2019ve got to get rid of all that senior management out there, too,\u201d continued Ms. Haley. \u201cWe\u2019ve got to go and make an example of people. We\u2019ve got to go and show that we\u2019re truly cleaning it up if we\u2019re going to take care of it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While The Daily Caller <a href=\"https:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2023\/06\/21\/gop-2024-candidates-pledge-fire-fbi-director\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">first reported<\/a> on Ms. Haley\u2019s campaign press secretary, Ken Farnaso, saying that Ms. Haley would fire Mr. Wray, this was the first time the candidate herself said she would relieve the FBI director of his duties.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Wray, a Republican, has come under fire for, among numerous issues, allegedly allowing the FBI to be <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/damning-durham-report\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">weaponized<\/a> against conservatives\u2014from not holding accountable those behind the Steele Dossier, which prompted Donald Trump\u2019s 2016 presidential campaign to be spied on, and then a special counsel investigation that found no collusion between the campaign and Russia, to the <a href=\"https:\/\/news3lv.com\/news\/nation-world\/no-legitimate-basis-judiciary-committee-blasts-biden-admin-directive-telling-fbi-to-investigate-school-board-meetings\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">FBI being sent<\/a> to school board meetings as parents expressed frustration and anger over far-left and explicit content being taught to schoolchildren.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Wray has also come under fire from the GOP for not being forthcoming in producing documents allegedly tied to corruption surrounding President Joe Biden and his son, Hunter Biden. Under threat of contempt, Mr. Wray allowed members of the House Oversight Committee to view in a classified setting an unclassified document alleging Mr. Joe Biden taking a bribe from a foreign official when he was vice president.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, Ms. Haley said that on her first day in the Oval Office she would get rid of executive branch agency leaders.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFirst thing is you control what you can control first, and that\u2019s your agencies. You go and relieve and replace every head of every agency because you want to make sure you\u2019re putting people that understand their consumer.
