Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee agree that FBI Director Christopher Wray needs to be better at his job, but their attempts to rein in the incompetence and scandal plaguing a multitude of federal agencies, including intelligence agencies, just aren’t cutting it.
Several Republicans have signaled they plan to investigate corrupt and partisan bureaucrats such as Dr. Anthony Fauci and Wray if they win back Congress in the November midterms. For now, while Democrats control the White House and the legislative branch, the GOP has resorted to letters and the occasional “oversight hearing” that accomplishes little..
If Republicans’ failure to hold bureaucrats accountable via letter-writing campaigns wasn’t apparent before, it was after an oversight hearing on Thursday when, instead of taking responsibility for any of his agency’s failures including the botched Larry Nassar investigation, a Hunter Biden investigation cover-up, and the slow response to pro-abortion attacks across the nation, Wray repeatedly refused to answer questions about the FBI’s track record of lying in ways that affect national election outcomes.
As a matter of fact, he doubled down and refused to condemn the Russia collusion hoax that his agency proudly spun for years.
During the hearing, multiple GOP senators expressed doubts that the FBI under Wray has fairly enforced the rule of law in the United States. Some even suggested it’s time for Wray to clean house. Yet most of those same senators were the ones who voted to confirm Wray as FBI head in 2017.

Wray should do his job better?
He’s doing great. He’s arresting Republicans by the hundreds, intimidating Conservative politicians everywhere across the land, entrapping hapless bitter clingers in one ludicrous set up after another, and generally aiding and abetting his crooked overseers any way he can.
The problem isnt him. It’s the existence of the agency itself. It’s not a federal police force, it’s a political gang. The sole job is stamp out any challenge to the gang’s power.
Fire him, abolish Mary Hoover’s little blackmail scam.
Trump spent his first year trying to get people confirmed... many languished for several years waiting on POS Mitch to allow them a vote.
How long did POS Biden have to wait for his team of traitors to be confirmed by the deep state.
He was nominated to be bad at his job.
ALL bureaucrats should be assumed to be corrupt until proven otherwise.
LMAO! .. and in other news... most Republicans should be tried for Treason for the very fact he still has that “job”...but I digress....
It’s the democrats version of Stasi now that they’ve infiltrated it with their people completely.
Getting rid of the FBI or even downsizing it will be like moving our embassy to Jerusalem. Won’t happen.
“It’s the democrats version of Stasi now that they’ve infiltrated it with their people completely.”
I would find it very difficult to disagree with you.
This guy is a disaster.
Defund FEDERAL Police.
The Senators who endorsed Wray and forced President Trump to nominate him should be held accountable.
In fact, all Senators who vote for a nominee who ultimately is corrupt and incompetent at their jobs should be held accountable.
But they won't be...

A subpoena will show Mr. Incompetence Wray,the way to the witness stand. What a squish he is.
No confidence in any damned thing FBI.
