We’ve seen FBI whistleblowers flooding members of Congress with allegations of politicization, bias, and misconduct including investigations regarding Hunter Biden and President Donald Trump.
That must have been making Democrats nervous with what was being revealed. Attorney General Merrick Garland sent out a letter to Justice Department employees telling them they shouldn’t be talking to Congress, although he claimed in the letter that whistleblowers were not impeded by his letter. Sure, then why are you sending out such a letter at this time? It practically screams cover-up and that he’s trying to shut down people talking.
But if he thought that would stop things, it doesn’t sound like that’s going to work.
FBI agents are now talking through Kurt Siuzdak, who represents whistleblowers at the Bureau, and he says that they are telling him that Wray has lost control and should resign.
“I’m hearing from [FBI personnel] that they feel like the director has lost control of the bureau,” he said. “They’re saying, ‘How does this guy survive? He’s leaving. He’s got to leave.”
FBI whistleblowers talking to Congress about corruption and retaliation say in their disclosures that Mr. Wray was often notified of the problems within the bureau but never took action to resolve them.
That includes recent whistleblower disclosures to House Judiciary Committee Republicans about agents being forced or coerced into signing false affidavits, sexual harassment, and stalking claims. It also includes fabricated terrorism cases to elevate performance statistics, as reported this month by The Times.
“[The FBI agents] are telling me they have lost confidence in Wray. All Wray does is go in and say we need more training and we’re doing stuff about it, or we will not tolerate it,” Mr. Siuzdak said.
The GOP members of Congress have not been happy with the answers they have been getting from Wray about all these questions. One of the names that came out in all these complaints had been the Special Agent in Charge of the Washington Field Office, Timothy Thibault. He had been involved in both the Hunter Biden and Trump investigations. He was just given the boot this week and walked out of the office with an escort. But when members of Congress were grilling Wray under their oversight responsibilities, Wray was not forthcoming. He said those were “ongoing personnel matters.”
When they wanted to ask him more questions for 21 minutes, Wray said he couldn’t stay because he had “catch a plane.” But as we reported, he was taking his private plane to go to his vacation home. This, despite misleading Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) that he had other “business” to do.
The problem is they can’t quiet all this just by dumping Thibault and perhaps trying to shove blame off on him, there are just too many problems. If the Republicans take back Congress, they’ve already promised they are going to go after this like a dog after a bone to clean up the FBI. Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) said that if the FBI buried verified information against Hunter Biden by labeling it as misinformation, they are “institutionally corrupted to their very core.” The GOP needs to clean house.

Biden would have to fire him.
He’s protecting Joe and his boy. Does anyone really believe Biden would fire the guy shielding him?
.
I would like to believe that justice will be served. But I’m afraid this Country is too far gone.
I’m sure this will be treated with the same degree of urgency and MSM interest that ensued when whistleblowers came forward during the Trump administration.
Flood? Define flood.
The FBI has two missions: A national political police force to terrorize the populace and a Praetorian Guard for the DC Deep State. They take both missions seriously.
Who? We are not hearing any names.
Unfortunately 14 whistleblowers will have no effect on anything.
This could be fake news. I don’t think the goons at the FBI are talking. I can’t see it.
If the Republicans take back Congress, they’ve already promised they are going to go after this like a dog after a bone to clean up the FBI.
Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha
And then Grassley will send a strongly worded letter.
Absolutely nothing will be done. Wray leaves, retires get replaced, rides off into the sunset or becomes a partner at some high brow firm to cash in
I am sure Linda Graham will get to the bottom of it.
Bring back Janet Reno.
She could light a fire under this trash heap.
Trump appointed him. Sorry for being a pollyanna, but is it possible Wray is a mole for Trump? Suppose he gathered all the info on the corrupt FBI and is now gonna get kicked out on purpose with the info? After being kicked out he blabs to Congress and Senate.....just a thought...ya gotta’ think there are still decent fbi and doj employees and nobody could be as bad as Wray(unless on purpose)
Right after he finishes up his investigation into the Russian Collusion Hoax and subpoenas everyone involved.
FBI credibility is abysmal according to polls and they will never recover their reputation.
Worse? From my perspective these agencies will be under much more scrutiny. Try to imagine what the FBI is thinking, after everything the FBI did to Trump, then Trumps gets elected again in a year and a half. Watch them head for the tall grass when that happens.
