TRANSCRIPT:
COLBERT: "There’s a breaking story this afternoon out of Washington D.C.. FBI Director Christopher Wray has announced plans to step down before Trump’s inauguration. Well, I think it’s fitting that America’s top law enforcement officer is timing his resignation to coincide with the end of law. (Laughter) (Cheering and Applause) You guys okay? You guys okay? Okay? Now, Wray technically has three years left on his 10-year term, but this news doesn’t come as a shock, because Trump has repeatedly indicated he would fire him. And that’s not surprising. The president-elect has had it out for Wray ever since Wray was appointed by a man who nearly destroyed Trump’s political career, Donald Trump. (Laughter and Applause) So he’s out of there. Wray is gone. Is it immediate? Later?"
