The Trump administration on Aug. 19 unveiled Andrew Bailey, the Missouri attorney general, as a new deputy director of the FBI, while hailing what it described as a dramatic surge in arrests and law enforcement successes under the bureau’s current leadership.
Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said Bailey’s appointment would add “another set of very credible and experienced hands” alongside Deputy Director Dan Bongino and Director Kash Patel. “Andrew Bailey is extremely qualified,” she told reporters. “He’s been serving with honor … and will strengthen an already tremendous FBI team.”
