Following the 2024 presidential election, the Trump transition team asked Driscoll to serve as Deputy Director of the FBI underneath Robert Kissane as acting director. In 2025, following the inauguration of Donald Trump, Driscoll became acting director of the FBI because the White House website "incorrectly listed" him as acting director and Kissane as deputy director. "Instead of fixing the error, the pair swapped their temporary FBI roles," according to the Wall Street Journal...
On January 31, 2025, as part of the ongoing purge of civil servants in the second Trump administration, the FBI under Driscoll was ordered to fire eight senior executives and compile a list of potentially thousands of other employees involved in investigations stemming from the January 6 United States Capitol attack, a group that Driscoll said included himself and acting deputy director Kissane. The order came from Emil Bove, a former criminal defense attorney for Trump who became the Trump administration's acting Deputy Attorney General. Driscoll refused to endorse the effort to purge agents and pushed back "so forcefully that some FBI officials feared he would be dismissed." Driscoll was lauded in a message widely circulated among FBI personnel.

Everyone should know he disobeyed Trump’s order to fire everyone involved in his investigation.
