House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer on Wednesday announced that he would soon meet with FBI Director Christopher Wray to resolve a dispute between House Republicans and the bureau over its refusal to hand over a document that detailed an alleged bribery scheme involving then-Vice President Joe Biden and a foreign national.

Comer indicated he might seek a House vote hold FBI Director Christopher Wray in contempt of Congress should he ultimately refuse to provide House investigators with the desired form. The Kentucky lawmaker said that Wray had reached out to him hours prior to his appearance on Fox News's "Hannity" but insisted he would not change his stance on demanding the document.

"Nothing's going to change with respect to holding him in contempt of Congress if he doesn't turn over the document," he insisted.

Host Sean Hannity pressed him as to whether the FBI had multiple sources to corroborate the allegations.

Remember, Dims couldn't care less about being held in contempt! Remember Obama's Attorney General Eric Holder??? The House voted overwhelmingly to hold him in contempt..., didn't mean SQUAT! Wake me up when we hear "extreme prejudice"?

If you have to say out loud that you’re prepared, you aren’t.

I watched yesterday’s interview of FBI counterintelligence goon Jill Murphy.

She has not even looked at Durham report.

Her testimony was utter contempt.

FBI has gone rogue, does not care what Congress does or says.

FBI has gone full Brandon Junta Marxist, is NKVD now.

It's because Congress never does anything, so there is nothing to be afraid of or worth being concerned about. The Strozk testimony and faces are the perfect metaphor.

Wray failed to comply with the subpoena. The FBI is laughing at Congress.

Comer has to act first and talk later since the FBI has failed to answer.

I say take him into custody and drop him into the oubliette in the basement of the capital bldg.

Pull him out when the docs are surrendered.

Looks like the last time a contempt charge by Congress meant FA was nearly a hundred years ago.

I think that America is dead and gone. Buried even.

And we all knows what happens to leftists when they are held in contempt. Nothing.

Until the corrupt criminals from the DOJ are removed, there is nothing to be done about the FBI.

Wray should get the same treatment he gave Steve Bannon, and many other conservatives.

Multiple armed vehicles, 3 am knock on the door, pulled from his home with CNN camera rolling, after front door kicked in. Then search his home, throw stuff everywhere, point guns at his wife and family. Let the Democrats repeat:

“NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW” when it’s one of their stooges.

Then send Wray to solitary confinement for the 12 months.
