President-elect Donald Trump met Jan 16 with Federal Communications Commission senior Republican commissioner Ajit Pai, according to transition and future White House spokesman Sean Spicer, who said it was the President-elect's last meeting of the day. Commissioner Pai is widely expected to be tapped as interim FCC chair when President-elect Trump becomes President Trump on Jan 20 and could be named permanent chair as well, though his fellow Republican commissioner Michael O'Rielly is also in the conversation. Trump also met with former Federal Trade Commission Republican member Joshua Wright.
