FBI Director Christopher Wray is sitting in an increasingly hot seat as Republicans and the White House press forward with investigations into what President Trump is calling “Obamagate.”
Congressional Republicans are pressing Wray to provide more information after recently released FBI field notes showed officials debating how to handle the case against former national security adviser Michael Flynn.
The controversy over the notes contributed to Attorney General William Barr’s contentious decision to drop charges against Flynn, despite his guilty plea.
The president argues the charges against Flynn were trumped-up and that officials in the Obama administration leaked information about Flynn’s phone conversations with Russia’s former U.S. ambassador after learning Flynn’s identity in intelligence reports to hurt his incoming administration.
Trump and Republicans have also criticized the FBI in their public remarks, suggesting agency officials may have been biased against Flynn and Trump.
Democrats say Barr’s unprecedented decision to drop charges against Flynn after he pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI was a political move that has undermined the Department of Justice.
Wray is the man in the middle who is charged with leading his embattled organization while reporting to a president deeply suspicious and critical of the FBI and to congressional Democrats with oversight over federal law enforcement.

Indict him for obstruction and then he won’t be stuck in the middle anymore.
The hill spews it’s usual, typical distorted garbage. What’s new under the sun?
He’s not stuck in the middle. He’s already chosen a side and it’s America’s side.
No need to read any further.
Really? I must have missed that revelation.
I meant, it’s NOT America’s side!
Wray on “America’s side?” That’s hilarious. Do you write comedy for a living?
Sorry, I need to proofread better! And have more morning coffee!
No. He was charged with cleaning the rot out of his corrupt and incompetent organization and if that means no man left standing, well so be it. The rot goes from top to bottom.
Every agent should be locked in a room an required to write and essay about rights and wrongs in the Flynn prosecution. Anyone defending it or thinking that the gubmint didn't screw up should be fired for moral terpitude.
You certainly will not get any disagreement with me regarding your suggestion. 8>)
Yep, still waiting to hear from the hundreds of good agents that are going to blow the whistle on how things were.
The obedient Rice fingers a president and his VP (Joe Biden) as the central connivers plotting against Trump.
Rice details an infamous meeting at which top Obama officials discuss the monitoring of incoming NSA Michael Flynn’s conversations with the Russian ambassador (Flynn was replacing Rice).
Unbelievably, FBI Director James Comey tells Obama that Flynn hasn’t revealed any secrets. But the media-beatified Obama does not intend to go gently into the night.
Sick with hate and vindictiveness toward Trump----and the loss of his third term----Rice tells us he asks if the Obamanoids should withhold information from Flynn, in defiance of accepted protocol.
Stupid beyond mere ignorance, Rice confirms via wire transfer, that Obama's deep state will stay loyal to the former president and stick it to the incoming one every chance they get.
Vindictiveness, leaks, plots and schemes, outright lies and ultimately an invented impeachment by "master organizer" Nancy Pelosi, will sharply focus America's attention on the poisonous cabal.
Gotcha. I have no doubt Wray will go down infamy when all the facts of this period of history are revealed. Enjoy your coffee.
I liken Wray to Karl Doenitz, the German Admiral who took over after Hitler (ie Comey) was deposed.
He’s not as bad as who he replaced, but he still represents the old regime and ideology, and needs to be purged.
That Q garbage is from exactly around the time Flynn was being assaulted by Mueller’s thugs.
Wray is an establishment man, not a reformer. Mealy-mouthed, dissembling. A very bad appointment, made on very bad advice.
