Don't trust these acting FBI's.where is Chris Wray?

These guys are Trump appointees and I do not trust them. They seems nervous and it was just unreal. I want Biden to get rid of all them and put all back in place before Trump fired them all to put in their lackeys. Even Andrew Macabe asked why Chris Wray was not there. Congress in the Senate need to haul them in before Biden in sworn in because there is too many Law enforcement's ect involved and I do not trust who the raciest is.

Put every last FBI including the ones Muller had on his team.Put them back in there so they can clean house because Trump pulled off the biggest crime in History by tearing down our intuitions and putting his lackey's in.If we do not clean house-we will be in trouble,including all Democrat's in Congress.I wish Joe can get sworn in virtual and leave the rest to the ones who wants to do harm.I fear for our country because there was too many in this terriost attack that was in high places.

I think those jumping to conclusions about Wray, simply because he isn't helming the press conference are forgetting how close he came to being fired multiple times. Wray was candid with Congress in predicting White Nationalists and RW extremists as this nations' biggest risk. He was clearly right.

12. Andrew McCabe was recommended to be fired for sabotaging

the 2016 election. Technically, for lying about what he did. Here he is on CNN as if he's a respectable person who didn't kill his FBI career to get Trump elected, likely assuming Trump would protect him.

The FBI's dirty as hell, and for sure Wray's hiding is suspicious.

11. Submit? Actually, no evidence Wray has done anything less than professional & Biden is keeping him.

No, he is not toast. He is working behind the limelight in order to avoid Trump firing him in a last minute fit of pique.

15. Wray heads up the FBI. Those present represented DOJ--the DC US Attorney

To say Wray made the decision over who DOJ sent in is a total misunderstanding of the structure-- Wray does not head DOJ.

Undoubtedly, the "B" team is the only credible group that could report without being ignominiously fired.

Biden is keeping Wray and I agree with that decision given he has been candid about RW terrorism risk--despite the tripwire he has had to negotiate in terms of being fired by Trump.

Show me evidence where Wray has been derelict and thus BIDEN is WRONG to keep Wray-- as he has already announced.

I don't know what Trump and Pence cooked up yesterday. But it sure as fuck was not for our benefit.

who Biden has decided to keep on as FBI director. Wray generally has a been a lonely voice in the Trump administration telling the truth to the public and Congress.
