FBI Director Wray Caught in LIE Under Oath to Congress

FBI Director Christopher Wray lied in a 2018 statement under oath to Congress, when he also smeared Congressman Devin Nunes in an effort to cover for his agency’s FISA abuses.

In January of 2018, shortly before then-House Intel Chairman Devin Nunes was set to release his 2-page FISA memo revealing FBI criminal misconduct in targeting Trump campaign advisor Carter Page with surveillance warrants, the FBI smeared Nunes saying it had “grave concerns” about his memo’s accuracy.

“As expressed during our initial review, we have grave concerns about material omissions of fact that fundamentally impact the memo’s accuracy,” the FBI said in a statement just days before Nunes released the FISA memo.

The FBI appeared to be taking the side of then-ranking member Adam Schiff who relentlessly attacked Nunes and called his FISA memo a “profoundly misleading set of talking points drafted by Republican staff attacking the FBI and its handling of the investigation.”

But Nunes was right all along.

As 24News reported on Tuesday, the secretive Federal FISA Court unleashed an unprecedented rebuke of the FBI for its "misconduct" in deceiving the Court in its 2016 spying of candidate Trump.

Former FBI Director William Webster: Trump spreading distrust of agency is ‘not American.’

Oh, that william webster, the guy who was FBI director during mostly which time Hansson was the FBI supervisor in charge of counter intel at the FBI while working as a KGB spy.

He should fire Wray and replace him with Chris Christie just so he can give us the pleasure of watching Christie get fired the next day.

I’m no expert on what happened and don’t remember the details but according to this article, https://www.latimes.com/nation/la-xpm-2011-may-29-la-na-anthrax-ivins-20110529-story.html , I think you have 2 people confused. It seems Mueller went after a Steven Hatfill and Hatfill recieved $5.8mill from a lawsuit against the govt. According to this article, Ivins seems like a mentally ill individual with access to Anthrax, had immunized himself against Anthrax and killed himself as the law was coming after him.

“Why can’t he fire him now?”

Who do you think the Senate would approve that President Trump wants?
The answer is no one.

Political capital rises after an election win. No choice but to wait or ask for Wray’s resignation which IMHO is not going to happen now.

Let ‘em run ‘headless’. At least it’d show the public *some* results of the illegality

"we have grave concerns about material omissions of fact that fundamentally impact the memo’s accuracy,” the FBI said

"material omissions of fact" has no context.
This is political speak, lawyer speak or wordplay that can mean anything. Wray is slimy as they come but this isn't a "lie." It's deception

If he said he had “grave concerns,” how is that a lie? We ALL had grave concerns about the memo.

“Chris Wray will be safe in the job, until after President Trump’s re-election.”

That’s what I expect too.

My thoughts too - “Having concerns” and absolute denial are different animals.
