President Trump took a swipe at his own FBI director overnight as he echoed allegations that Christopher Wray is protecting members of the bureau who, in the words of one critic, worked to “overthrow” him.

The president, sending a signal about his apparently dimming view toward the sitting bureau boss, tweeted comments recently made by the head of conservative watchdog Judicial Watch, Tom Fitton, on Fox Business Network’s “Lou Dobbs Tonight.”

“’The FBI has no leadership,'" Trump quoted Fitton as saying. "'The Director is protecting the same gang that tried to overthrow the President through an illegal coup.’ (Recommended by previous DOJ) @TomFitton @JudicialWatch."

I thought Wray was a company man from the first time I saw him testify before Congress.

We have Chris Christie to thank for recommending him for that position.

Translation: There is no organized prosecutorial effort to indict Comey or anybody else. They remain free and arrogant. Trump is frustrated because he still does not control the levers of real power.

Wray better wise up. Once you’re a focus of Trump you better start cleaning up the mess or he’ll throw you you with the trash.

He has indeed. Sadly, he has many FReepers fooled based upon comments I have seen here. He appears to be trying to “out Session” Sessions — which would be pretty hard to do.

Company man is right. He looks like the kind of guy who sees his job as another check box checked.
