Trump Adviser: Mike Rogers Not Considered for FBI

President-elect Donald Trump's senior advisor, Dan Scavino, has confirmed that former Republican Michigan Rep. Mike Rogers is not being considered for the position of FBI Director. Despite speculation and Rogers' lobbying efforts, Trump stated he 'has never even given it a thought.' Rogers, a former FBI special agent and congressman, was seen as a traditional choice but faced opposition from Trump supporters and figures like Andrew McCabe. Instead, Trump is reportedly considering Kash Patel, a controversial figure from his previous administration who has been critical of the FBI, describing it as a 'weaponized agency.' This decision follows Rogers' recent narrow loss in a Senate race against Democrat Elissa Slotkin.
