Glad to see more Congrssmen calling out the corrupt FBI. However I'm not sure their new director is going to be up to the task of cleaning them up, from what I've seen from him so far. For example, from the WSJ today:

https://www.wsj.com/amp/articles/trump-renews-criticism-of-fbi-as-he-chides-top-official-on-twitter-1514079779?__twitter_impression=true

Associates of Mr. Wray said the director has confidence in Mr. McCabe and admired how he ran the bureau after Mr. Comey’s firing. Mr. Wray doesn’t want to appear to have buckled under pressure from Mr. Trump or Republicans, the associates said.

Fire them all, and start from scratch.

Or don’t start again at all.

Sick of these arrogant jerks abusing the power we entrusted them with.

Dismantle this corrupt agency and every other corrupt federal agency, which is all of them.

What would be the grounds for being purged?

"I would like to see the directors of those agencies purge it"

lol, that's funny. The directors, like Comey, Mccabe? I hate to break it to him but when the apples at the top are rotten the whole tree is rotten and the only fix is to cut it down.

No I don't trust Wray either. He defends the FBI, which pretty much kills any credibility. There is no defense of this rogue agency. It must be shut down and all personnel releived of duty. At some point if needed we can begin anew with a few vetted people who don't hate the fact the American people are in charge of this nation.

0bama politicized the FBI and all agencies for that matter, to entrench radical leftists in positions of power throughout the government so that even if a republican is president, the left still controls the levers of power everywhere.

It is 0bama and the Clinton and their willing collaborators in the gop who need to be purged, and imprisoned for the rest of their lives.

There are only 3 Federal Crimes authorized by the US Constitution.

Do you know what they are?

and why do we need an FBI for the only three Federal Crimes found in the Constitution?

Wray is in an unenviable position - needs to clean up a fetid mess and still try to add credibility to the agency because there are undoubtedly some decent folks in the trenches who are also dismayed/pissed about how the agency has been perverted..

Will he cut the mustard or hear the words, "You're fired!"?

Is this the same Mr Wray that is about to be held in contempt of Congress for stone walling Congressional oversight committees?

Why do we need a national police force, which is what the FBI is? Policing should be a local activity. If the feds need some form of law enforcement, it ought to be to police their own agencies, and to offer legitimate national services such as the national fingerprint database.

The FBI is beyond purging. It needs to be defunded and abolished.

Hopefully, “purge” includes resurrection of the guillotine for some of these slimeballs.

What a collection of corruption, sleaze, incompetence, and liberals (but I repeat myself).

Chris Wray is another who thinks that the FBI and the DOJ should show independence from the chief executive. The above is a case in point.

Here's another example...

Who is Christopher Wray?

Not just purge but also prosecute or it will keep happening. You know, like a criminal politician who gets caught and then resigns with no cost of any legal consequences. There has to be a deterrent other than just losing their jobs, like hard time in jail.

Clean up the gestapo FBI, Trump. Give the command to the 2ndMarDiv to arrest these traitorous snakes and hand them over to a military court on charges of sedition.

I think the whole purpose of this article is to get the word “purge” into the title. That is an extremely loaded term with so much deadly baggage that I would never use it to describe what needs to happen with the FBI. This congressman was a flaming idiot to use it. The hill jumped right on it.

I’m surprised to see so many freepers using it as if it were a proper term for what needs to happen. An overhaul, reform, or maybe even cleaning out, with a wink and a nod. Don’t freepers know about the purges in the Soviet Union????

Not having an FBI is better than a politicized corrupt FBI. In this case nothing is better than something.
