Director Wray was appointed after Trump fired James Comey early in his first term. That was done because he proved to be a problem for both Trump, at the start of the Russia Hoax, and the Democrats, for how he handled Hillary Clinton's email scandal.
When Wray was appointed, he was a thorn in Trump’s side right from the start. He ordered the FBI to burst into Roger Stone’s home at 3 AM, with a CNN TV crew documenting it. Then, he was responsible for violating Trump’s home in Mar-A-Lago, allowing overzealous agents to trash through the entire estate.
But the coup-de-grace was when he claimed Donald Trump was “only” struck by shrapnel during the Butler assassination attempt. He tried to minimize the whole debacle until he had to admit Trump was stuck by a bullet.
At that point, his days we numbered.
According to Newsmax, he tried to put a good spin on his resignation by saying to the workforce that stepping down “is the best way to avoid dragging the bureau deeper into the fray, while reinforcing the values and principles that are so important to how we do our work.”
Nice touch. But everyone knew he would not survive even a week has he held out for his position. The die was cast long ago by his own words and deeds.
So now, Kash Patel will slot into the Directorship and begin to clean house.
In his post on Truth Social, President Trump touted his nominee to lead the agency, calling Kash Patel “the most qualified Nominee to lead the FBI in the Agency’s History,” and said he is “committed to helping ensure that Law, Order, and Justice will be brought back to our Country again, and soon.”
Once the dead wood is removed and the housecleaning is complete, hopefully we will once again have a stain-free FBI working to protect all Americans from the political trysts we have witnessed for far too long. It was truly unbecoming to see such Gestapo-like tactics used against Americans.
Let’s get back to the FBI’s original mission, which is to protect the American people and uphold the Constitution of the United States.
