IOW, pay no attention to the fact that senior members of your own organization have been engaging in a coup against a sitting President.

Yeah....he (Wray) seemed to have left that part out of his letter. Geez.

Director Wray is doing a disservice to the rank and file FBI agents who wanted to see the leadership purged of people who politicized and weaponized the agency.

Exactly. Wray is implicitly following the lead of Comey in trying to portray holding corrupt members of FBI leadership accountable as an attack on rank-and-file agents and the institution of the FBI as a whole.

He is in effect signalling potential whistleblowers to keep quiet and that he stands with the wrongdoers.

He’s talking about elitist media.

Perhaps. I’d of liked to hear him (Wray) say that the world’s premier investigative agency will get to the bottom of ANY improprieties and insure that the integrity of the agency is upheld by ALWAYS remaining transparent to what is best for the average American citizen.

Something along those lines.

These agencies have been weaponized.

Now is NOT the time for a motivational speech, within.

Let’s see how he feels when the IG report goes public.

Also, who was it that had to walk McCabe out Monday?

I remember 20+ years ago where I worked was being publicly humiliated due to the actions of several top managers.

The CEO sent out a memo like that
The “worker bees” laughed our asses off at it.

I suspect the same is happening in the rank and file there. They know as we did the ship has lost its rudder. Prepare for imminent collision...

The IG will be Wray’s Iceburg.

FBI Director Christopher Bray’s memo sounds like a pep talk to a group of rowdy kindergartners.

.........this action demonstrates EXACTLY why Wray should be fired. It is the opposite of what he should have done. Instead of diminishing the relevance of this dirty deed by the FBI/DOJ he should have strongly supported the apprehension of the criminal FBI agents and reinforced to his fellow employees the necessity in the future for “other agents” to ACT and never let this happen again.

No acceptance of responsibility or wrongdoing means it will happen again! F Wray.

He should be fired for that letter alone.

The enemy is no longer foreign.
