FBI Director Wray Not Cooperating With AG Barr’s Investigation

A recent report suggests that FBI Director Christopher Wray is not cooperating with Attorney General Bill Barr with his recent investigations.


According to reporter Paul Sperry, republican House representatives are beginning to think that Wray may be involved with the covering up of information to protect members in the FBI.

"House GOP leadership has soured on Comey replacement Wray. They r now convinced Wray’s not part of the FBI cleanup & not cooperating w AG Barr & is in fact part of the cover-up of #SpyGate scandal after burying documents & refusing to make people available for interview," Sperry said in a tweet.

Many here were not convinced that Wray would do the right thing.  Looks like they were correct.

”I am proud to announce Christopher as my choice as the Director of the FBI. During his previous service at the Department of Justice, Christopher was the leader of major fraud investigations, and was a key part of the team overseeing the Justice Department’s actions in the war on terrorism following the 9/11 attacks,” said President Trump. “He is an impeccably qualified individual, and I know that he will again serve his country as a fierce guardian of the law and model of integrity once the Senate confirms him to lead the FBI.”

I disagree.  Circle gets the square.

Then why did Trump appoint him, other than to continue the kabuki to give him an excuse for not doing his job?

I'm guessing that he didn't have his crystal ball working and didn't know who were the bad guys and who were the (extremely rare) good guys. What do you think?

Likely due to very bad advice from others. Likely Obama administration holdovers.

People weren't exactly breaking down the doors to work for this administration, considering the hassle they would get from the Deep State if they chose to work for Trump.

The list of individuals deemed to be "suitable" for key nominees is a very short one, regardless of which "party" controls the Senate.

Absolutely! And they must all be certified, card-carrying, swamp dwellers who exhibit 100% loyalty to the swamp!

Trump hired Wray for the same reasons as all his hires. He had to find quality candidates and fill hundreds of positions quickly. New to Washington DC, I doubt Trump knew that many qualified people who didn’t hate his guts. Who would besides Washington insiders?

Anyway, he usually corrects his hiring mistakes whenever and wherever he can.

Trump failed to terminate Comey in a timely manner.  I would have booted him out day one!

He brought Wray in, and he has proven to be a weak sister, and should have been fired within 90 days of being hired.

I say eliminate the FBI, everyone above firstline supervisor, and merge the FBI into Homeland.  Too many agencies in the federal government, and Trump has done nothing to reduce spending.

And, you would have been impeached at least a year ago.

Trump had every right to dump Comey first day.  His performance on the Clinton case was criminal, and way out of line. 

Better that than appearing on TV like an idiot and saying words to the effect, 'I got rid of Comey because of the Russia probe'.  Truly idiotic, that!

@jmyrlefuller

Why do YOU "think" he appointed him? Trump isn't a career politician,and he doesn't know all these people and their track records,so he has to ask DC Denizens who are alleged to be Republicans for their recommendations.

The ONLY way to clean this mess up is to go down to middle management,find a crusader for truth there that has the habit of stepping on toes,and anoint him OR her as the new FEEB director,and give them the authority to promote Feeb agents from downstream who have not been corrupted by the DC cabal and the favors they are owed. Once he or she is sworn in,tell them their first big job is to seek indictments on crooked FBI agents.

LET THE GAMES,BEGIN!

I like "quick" and VERY painful" better. Hit them all up so hard they wet their pants at cutting a deal to rat out their pals/co-conspirators.

@jafo2010
The FBI has enough problems as part of the Justice Department; would you really like to take the chance of the FBI being merged into Homeland Security? With the FBI's track record? And, for that matter, Homeland Security's? Haven't our rights been abused enough without such a merger. Somehow, and with apologies to P.J. O'Rourke, giving the FBI the cloak of Homeland Security would be very much like giving whiskey and the car keys to a teenager.

. . . and Trump has done nothing to reduce spending.
Of all the reasons his rightward critics could think of to reject President Tweety as being anything but a conservative, one of the most glaring is that he was never once on record anywhere as standing in any degree on behalf of genuinely smaller, properly-construed government. It's a shame that his and his sycophancy's obsession with "winning" didn't include even a single thought about winning even a small but real (as opposed to just zapping regulations anyone with a single brain cell on life support could tell you could---and probably will---be reinstated by the next Damnocratic president with even half the mind to do it) beginning in reducing the size and the thefts of government.

At the end of the day, few "republicans" live up to the small, less costly government narrative.

Both Reagan and Trump have failed to reduce the size, scope and cost of government; in part because they increased military spending, and cut taxes.

Young wunderkinds of fiscal responsibility and magic, come and go. David Stockman and Paul Ryan for instance.

There are only a few hundred key political appointees, yet tens of thousands of highly partisan career bureaucrats.

Should a real conservative ever be elected (not likely), he will  need to learn this lesson again.
