FBI Director Christopher Wray always seems a little too pleased with himself. But on Thursday the smirk may be wiped off his pretty face when Republican members of the House oversight committee start grilling him on the mounting evidence that something is very rotten inside the agency Wray runs. Top of the list is the curious question of why the FBI apparently did nothing with Hunter Biden’s laptop, which was handed to two agents on Dec. 9, 2019, by John Paul Mac Isaac, the alarmed owner of the computer repair shop near the Biden family homes in Greenville, Del., where Hunter had dropped off his MacBook eight months earlier.

What these people know is so toxic it would leave a lifeless crater the size of the capitol building if it all came out. What would happen to the country if Justice were to magically prevail and the perp-walks began?
Like everyone else up there in DC-Bubbleland, Mr. Wray is just betting his "insurance policy" will hold out.

Wray will use convoluted language to say that Hunter Biden is above the law because his father was a high ranking Democrat and is now president. Wray will play rope a dope and Hunter will remain in the clear.

Let’s quit grinding on Trump’s appointments please. I would challenge any of you to do better in that pit of vipers that is the Washington establishment. You can trust no one yet have to trust people ensconced in their careers forever. No one is your friend and they all have an axe to grind. I would bet that President Trump knows better now. It takes time to navigate that soupy rancid swamp.
Wray is typical of career bureaucrats. They are always working an angle and almost always it is to benefit themselves and the democrat party. They will lie and do anything in their power to protect one another because they know if one rat defects, the jig is up. The bond is strong regardless of party. It truly is a cesspool of corruption from top to bottom. Wray is at the top of the heap and will remain loyal. To do anything else is a death sentence, career wise, of course. Democrats would never resort to that kind of illegal behavior.
Washington is a house of cards. All it will take is one brave patriot with the goods and courage to take these miscreants on. Do we even have men of that caliber anymore? For the country’s sake, I certainly hope so. Watching this cabal of criminals collapse would bring Americans such pleasure. It’s about time the cavalry comes riding to the rescue.

Ooh. He's going to get grilled by a congressman. When was the last time such a grilling resulted in anything? They are all completely corrupt to their cores and beyond redemption. At best the republicans are paper tigers, and as often as not, they are paper Raggedy Ann dolls. When they get into power, it will be the same. Hide, cower, quake, but hey, donate.

Asking questions will get them nothing. Asking questions about evidence already in hand WILL get them something. Don't wait or allow Wray et al to wriggle out of answering by claiming it's part of an ongoing investigation - expose the document to the public in the hearing thus eliminating any secrecy.

Nothing will happen to Wray. Nothing would have happened to Jim Comey if Trump hadn't won and then had the Balls to fire him! NOBODY is going to touch Wray unless Trump wins in 24. Then we will see some major housekeeping! As I said before, Trump has Lists, lots of them! Will be interesting to see who goes first! But I would bet my House Wray is way at the top of one of his Lists!

#7 … you are 100% nail on the head.
The trouble is, such a swamp draining patriot (Trump) would be trashed by the media 24/7/365
and forced to do battle with the swamp creatures and miss-informed public opinion. it would take
a man of steel (Trump) and a miracle (God) to achieve the rescue you reference. Stay tuned.

Speaking of patriot, I’ve often wondered what happened to Admiral Rogers. He went to Trump Towers to warn him he was being wire tapped. He stopped what Obama’s people were doing with the huge data base. And then…nothing. Or did I miss something?

Who appointed Wray in the first place? So little time and so many bad personnel decisions. I hope a second term corrects this mistake and avoids appointing more swamp rats.

Never mind the Fumbling, Bumbling Incompetents (FBI) .... what the heck about any media source? No Woodward & Bernstein here! Oh no. Can't have that. No one wants to try and earn a Pulitzer for blowing up the game they are all in on.
And we're now counting on a Senator who is almost 89 to get the job done. Really?
Fay Wray will take the Uvalde chief-of-police defense. We had to make sure everything was all set before we moved against the enemy!

Following Comey, Trump made a huge mistake appointing Wray to lead the FBI, no doubt at the urging of deep state thugs who he unfortunately trusted. The FBI has gone totally rogue and needs to be reined in. This is not just dirty politics. This is a huge risk to our national security, our justice system, and our survival as a nation. It’s going to take more than strongly worded letters from Senators.

Think about how many databases the FBI has in their cubicles? The laptops of Seth Rich, Anthony Weiner, Jeffrey Epstein, Hunter Biden, John McAfee, Ghislaine Maxwell and probably a few more like Bernard Whisenaut we don't know they have. (Does Ashley Biden's abandoned diary count?) What are the career bureaucrats saving all the criminal acts in these tens of gigabytes of photos, videos, emails, texts and only they know what else for? Obviously not crime investigation.

Rude awakening? Who's going to wake him up? Grassley and his chorus of GOPe symps? It's August, vacation time for America. They'll get some election season video to get the boobwzie all wound up. Express shock and dismay. Demand reforms. Meanwhile the usual breathless outlets will report BOMBSHELL testimony. And the band will play on...

Thank you #7, I'm fed up with all the smug, pompous, self-righteous posters who pretend they would have had the discernment, in Trump's shoes, to make perfect personnel picks. (And yes, I'm looking at you, Conservative from MD.)
My biggest worry is that Americans have lost any capacity for shock/outrage over even the most blatant political corruption, and are resigned to just helplessly accept it. The corruption has been going on for decades, and yet everything seems to be business as usual. When is the indignation of citizens at school board meetings going to broaden to address all the other crap going on??!

The FBI/Gestapo is totally out of control, and must be erased, permanently. No replacement. Let states work on interstate coordination to replace these thugs.

Pardon the second post:
#7 - T-Rex and Mad Dog were not forced errors. How about Omarosa? Was she a viper from that Washington pit? Lots of cheerleading for Fox contributing fools like Bolton and Gorka, too. Let's also not forget that PDT did his own personnel work...his careful personal considerations were the reason given for the slow hiring of his appointees, and he made some really bad choices for major positions in his cabinet.
After one would have thought he'd gotten wise, he promoted Gen. Milley (appointed CJCS December 8, 2018) and Wray (appointed FBI Director August 2, 2017). PDT's selection of key members of HIS administration is fully deserving of that well-earned criticism. Don't pawn it off as his being fooled, or having no choices but from that "pit of vipers."
Maintaining Fauci and Birx in their positions, giving them the Bully Pulpit for their nightly nonsense spielings, is a great example of a businessman cedeing to "experts"...and getting burned. The President of the United States IS the front man for his administration regardless of the issue at hand. It is HE who must manage HIS message.
The Trump Organization may be "big"...the Federal government is much, much bigger, and enormously more politically complex. At best it shows the likely outcome when an "outsider" and a businessman takes executive government office. You can bet had any of these appointments been a "success" PDT would be claiming such at every rally. No one to blame but himself.

Remember Trey Gowdy? A little vicious rat terrier inquisitor during Congressional hearings, a do-nothing lapdog once the cameras were off and the gavel went down. Expect more of that, and you won't be disappointed.

Regarding the heated discussion of President Trump's appointments when in office, I submit this:
Romans 8:28 NASB God causes all things to work together for good for those who love Him and are fitting into His purposes..
I submit for consideration that the Lord God allowed all these Judas' to be appointed so as their true colors would be exposed, as well as the exposure to the the rottenness of the state of the SWAMP in all of our government.
How would we as Americans have known the depth of the corruption in this country, as well as the betrayal, unless President Trump hadn't appointed those like Christopher Wray, General Milley and even V.P. Mike Pence. How would we have even known their character, unless they were in a circumstances to reveal themselves?
So I submit, God is working all of this out for our Country's good. Keep praying! Our God is cleaning house!!!

The fool Wray has a rebellion brewing among the Agents even with the DC office firing and forcing out the older agents in order to bring in GenZ "inclusi-versity hires." This is another "great replacement" that will further enhance the Democrat control of the FB giving us a tyrannical Police State with Dems in charge. What could possibly go wrong?

I submit you all of you excellent posters on this site my summary of FBI Director Chrissy Wray. The Director of the Flatulence Beyond Incredible is nothing but a career federal employee deep state hack of the highest order. He instead of choosing the side of law order and justice has chosen the side of corruption malfeasance and authoritarianism. How else do you explain his blatant disregard of the Hunter laptop story and the J6 prisoners 1st 2nd 4th and 14th Amendment Rights being violated leading to at least 1 person to take his own life due to mistreatment. American citizens who did nothing have been branded enemies of the state while the biggest story since Watergate just gets passed by and the man who's the center of it goes about his dirty business. Wray as usual will do his Congressional mealy mouthed tap dance because he like his predecessor is a weak coward with too much power. Also as usual nothing will continue to be done.

If Trump regains the presidency, the "cleanest" way to fire Wray would be for Trump to first say, "I made a mistake." That admission would dominate the news and Wray would be an afterthought but he'd begone non-the-less.

I wish Miranda was correct on this one. She has done a great job in uncovering the Biden Crime Family's graft and corruption.
But to expect Christopher Wray and the FBI to come clean or take any blame/shame for their actions is a fool's dream.
Why Trump didn't can this idjit the day after the 2020 election is beyond me. If Trump does win in 2024, and he doesn't fire Wray within a week of taking office, I will think my vote was wasted.
