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.

The Qballs are still claiming Rosenstein is a white hat. Or he has a white hat, or he wants a white hat, or he saw a white hat once, or some other such drivel.

No American should trust Wray
1.) Fire Wray while citing that he is going after the deep state. Put the deep state on notice.
2.) Install an acting FBI director that has zero ties to the deep state. Have no intentions of having a confirmed director.
3.) The acting director hires a small secret team of trusted people who will not leak. This team includes IT people and people who know the difference between right and wrong. It's really that simple - no deep state knowledge required.
4.) The team goes after information and documents, but, not in a traditional manner. Every computer system has data that is backed up for disaster recovery. Under the guise of doing a disaster recovery drill for IT systems, recover the data and run those systems off-site where no deep stater will know what is happening. This will avoid tampering and editing of documents/information by deep staters.
5.) Do daily dumps of information, hitting everyone from the janitor to assistant deputies.
6.) Above all, keep the operation legal. Trump needs to personally declassify the information and personally release it in a daily press conference like the ChiCom Flu press briefings. He is the chief executive. He has the power to do so.
6.) Use the same approach at other agencies - grab their data before they can change/destroy the data. Information is power.
Three times, Rice emailed that her master, Obama, used the phrase “by the book” ....... deliberately creating the aura that the sainted Obama did nothing wrong, to make sure the world knew Obama was being “upfront and presidential” (when he was actually the exact opposite).
Its funny how criminal types like Rice start remembering stuff when faced with the possibility of spending years in the Graybar Hotel.
Now in a belated statement Wednesday, Rice says she wrote the memo at the suggestion of Obama’s White House counsel, Neil Eggleston, who was paid bigbuck tax dollars to (cough) “protect the president”.....a govt job he ultimately failed at.
One can only imagine the consternation in the Oval Office as Trump prepared to takeover-———the Obamanoids committed so many crimes to make little Hillary a shoo-in.
THE SALIENT POINT keep in mind, fellow Americans, Rice’s email is the only time where Obama is documented.....
Rice fingered Obama discussing the investigation into Flynn ......and/or other parts of Obama’s vindictiveness played out in an anti-Trump effort that is indicative of Obama’s Third World mentality.
WE NOW HAVE PROOF-POSIIVE OBAMA KNEW....and that there must have been earlier discussions.
Yoo hoo, Susan.......got anymore memos?
I didn’t realize that Qtard is still around.
Does anybody know exactly who told Trump to appoint Wray?
I read that it was Chris Christie. Not sure, though.
“I didn’t realize that Qtard is still around.”
Oh yea. There’s an almost daily thread here. The gullible and the “truly committed” Qballs are still insisting that we should “Trust Sessions”, the mid term elections are safe, that there are 17 bazillion sealed indictments, and that in just 8 business hours Karl Rove will be frog marched out of the White House.
Oh wait, that was another idiot loser on the other side.
They’re all fools.

LOL! I was wondering. Never type before morning coffee.
I just typed this before morning coffee :S
I think he should add to his “to do” list a well-thought-out suicide.
Putting anyone in at the FBI at just the top level is akin to the story of Queeg in Caine’s Mutiny. The top guy may change but those below him responsible to carry out his orders reluctantly do but since they consider him incompetent for command their support is half hearted.
The whole top management has to go. Anyone recall any murmurs from inside top management something was amiss during the run up to Trump’s win or for the first years of his presidency? Whistleblowers? Any scoops in the press? Any congressman or senators given a heads up? NO. Even in Caine there was a half hearted attempt to notify the admiral. Not here. Idiom in Italian: scopa nuova, scopa bene: new broom sweeps clean. That is what should have happened, not only at the FBI but across the entire appointed and SES staffs. Didn’t happen because partly the RINOs did not support the new president either.
I propose we shut down the FBI completely and sell the employees into slavery.
“He’s not stuck in the middle. He’s already chosen a side and it’s America’s side.”
Maybe Barr...definitely not Wray.
The only reason I can fathom that Wray still has his job is that he’s cooperating.
“He’s not stuck in the middle. He’s already chosen a side and it’s America’s side.”
What the hell is wrong with you? Wray is most certainly NOT on the side of America, he is actively working against Flynn and the country by continuing to refuse to release documents that would help the country get to the bottom of this COUP.
How much do you really think we’d get for them?
More information is like boiling the frog get pop corn ready.
That works too. Put them all on the market at the same time so they are nice and cheap. I'll take three.
