NEWS 28 - Thomas Cooke recently requested that Sharona Maples step down in November if he wins the 2024 Presidential Elections to allow him to select a brand new FCIS Director for his administration.

Maples obliged and said that she would be stepping down as Director Of The FCIS on November 18, 2024, regardless of who wins the 2024 Presidential Election. Furthermore, Thomas Cooke has expressed great appreciation for the work she has done as the 52nd director of the agency.

The agency says that its new head will take on the role as the 52nd Director regardless of who wins in October, thus making it certain that Maples will leave office then. It has not been provided on what Maples will do once leaving office.

Thomas Cooke's campaign is very confident that they will win the election and are already making moves to implement his administration into the various cabinet, secretarial and military roles upon inauguration day(of course if he wins), and if he assumes the role as the 3rd President Of The United States Of Jesstopia.

"Thomas Cooke came to me to thank me for my dedication to the FCIS, but did ask me to step aside in November so that he can choose another FCIS director," said Maples. "I have agreed to step aside to allow him to choose my replacement. I will serve out the remainder of my term until November 18, 2024. If he is not to win the election in 2024, I will still not continue as the FCIS Director under a Republican President."
