Saw a Trump-appointed #Wray getting away with pulling this shit with #Keggers under Trump1.Joe Biden has learnt nothing from ignoring #AnitaHill and supporting #ClarenceThomas for a SCOTUS seat?

Of course #DarkBrandon will now fire #Wray and replace the twerp with #HulkHogan.

Dedicating this to Christopher A. Wray, the current head of the #FBI, upon him announcing his intention to resign which saves #47 the trouble of firing him.

This is seriously disturbing news (#Wray's resignation.)It creates an opening for Head of the #FBI that the #ConvictedFelon MUST now fill on #DayOne. It's not like he has a list of candidates he's considering to fill the position.
(Why does this strike me with the same suspicion as when #JusticeKennedy suddenly resigned for no apparent reason, gifting him a #SCotUS vacancy?) 🤔 #Blackmail #MafiaDon

This is not good.By resigning, #Wray CREATES an opening for head of the #FBI that the #ConvictedFelon must now fill, and it's not like he has a "list" of candidates for the job.

FBI Director #Christopher #Wray and Donald Trump's team are planning for the possibility that the president-elect will replace Wray during the new administration, three people familiar with the matter told NBC News.
One person under consideration for Wray's job is Trump adviser #Kash #Patel, who is also being considered to lead the CIA, according to two other sources.
Wray, whom Trump appointed in 2017 to a 10-year term, enjoys leading the FBI and had intended to serve out his term, a source said.
But he's also preparing for the possibility that Trump will seek to replace him, according to a separate source.
All the sources spoke on condition of anonymity to recount sensitive discussions.

If all runs smooth Trump gets the keys to the kingdom on 20 January 2025.
There were public servants who during Trump 1 demonstrated a clear preparedness to bend to Trump's wishes.
The FBI head #Wray's handling of the pretend second investigation into #Kavanaugh's past, which saw all reports of misconduct bundled and sent to Trump's Whitehouse, qualifies him as one of these flexible types.
A lawyer who argued to a court that refugee kids didn't need soap another.
Not fired?

The Egyptian government may have given $10 million to Donald Trump in 2017,
♦️violating U.S. law
—but the investigation into the payment was
💥squashed by Attorney General William Barr.The Washington Post reports, citing unnamed sources, that
an investigation began in 2017 that #Egyptian #President Abdel Fattah El Sisi ⭐️was seeking to give Trump $10 million to boost his 2016 election campaign.Federal investigators discovered in 2019 that, only five days before Trump was sworn into office,
⭐️nearly $10 million in cash was withdrawn on behalf of an organization linked to Egyptian intelligence.In the U.S., receiving funds from overseas is a federal crime. Federal investigators were trying to prove if any money actually moved from Egypt to Trump,
and 🔷if that had anything to do with Trump’s decision to boost his campaign in its final days with $10 million of his own money.But the investigation was 🔥halted by Trump’s Justice Department,
which blocked FBI agents and prosecutors from accessing bank records that could provide the evidence.In the fall of 2019, #Barr questioned whether there were sufficient grounds for the investigation to continue.
Barr directed the Trump-appointed U.S. attorney in D.C., Jessie #Liu, to examine the intelligence herself,
and instructed FBI Director Christopher #Wray to provide “adult supervision” on FBI agents Barr said were “hell-bent” on pursuing Trump’s records.Whether Wray (also appointed by Trump) did anything in response isn’t known,
but in June 2020, the prosecutor Barr chose to oversee the investigation, Michael #Sherwin, closed it down, citing insufficient evidence.👉 “Every American should be concerned about how this case ended,” said one of the Post’s sources.
“The Justice Department is supposed to follow evidence wherever it leads
—it does so all the time to determine if a crime occurred or not.”https://newrepublic.com/post/184514/bill-barr-investigation-trump-egypt-sisi-millions

A letter the two legislators sent to AG Merrick #Garland & FBI Dir Christopher A. #Wray demanded that the bureau produce a document, recorded on a Bureau form FD-1023 in mid-2020, which memorialized conversations between a confidential informant & a Ukrainian executive. After all, the letter claimed, the form “describes an alleged criminal scheme involving then-Vice President Biden & a foreign national relating to the exchange of money for policy decisions.”

Speaking to the #HouseJudiciaryCommittee, #Wray sounded exasperated at times w/both the criticisms & the premise behind them — that as a Republican appointed by fmr President Donald #Trump, he was nevertheless out to get #Republicans.

…#Lieu asked #Wray about #RogerStone, #ElliottBroidy, #MichaelCohen, #PaulManafort, #RickGates, & #GeorgePapadopoulos, all of whom were found #guilty of various #crimes in federal court.
Lieu pointed out that all of the advisers were prosecuted by Trump appointees: #BillBarr, #MatthewWhitaker, & #JeffSessions. Wray, who was already leading the #FBI at the time, is also a #TrumpAppointee.

Matt #Gaetz to #FBI Director Christopher #Wray:
"Did you beat your wife on Tuesday, or on Wednesday?"
Christopher Wray: "..."
Gaetz: "WhY WoN't YoU AnSwEr ThE QuEsTiOn??? ThIs iS ProOf yOu'Re LyInG tO tHe AmErIcAn pEoPlE!!!"
This is, apparently, what passes for legitimate #oversight among #Republicans.🙄

#FBI resisted opening probe into #Trump’s role in #Jan6 for more than a year
The delays in examining that question began before #Garland was even confirmed. Sherwin, senior #DOJ ofcls & Paul Abbate, the top deputy to FBI Dir Christopher #Wray, quashed a plan by prosecutors in the US atty’s office to directly investigate Trump associates for any links to the riot….

In "Understanding Modern Money: the Key to Full Employment and Price Stability", in 1998, L. Randall #Wray repeats "that #money should fundamentally be understood as an IOU created by a currency issuer; specifies this through the idea of the state’s promise to accept the #currency it issues back as payment of a tax obligation."

#Comer wants a tipster form from the #FBI related to his (bad faith) investigation into allegations of bribery involving President #Biden. The FBI can't turn it over, so Director #Wray bent over backwards and offered to allow Comer to view the document at FBI headquarters. Comer has refused, saying he wants his own copy. The truth is apparent. Comer is using this as #pretext to justify holding Wray in #contempt of Congress.
