GOP House Members Accuse Christopher Wray of Politicizing FBI in Heated Hearing

HeadlineJul 13, 2023

Republican members of the House Judiciary Committee grilled FBI Director Christopher Wray Wednesday, accusing his agency of “politicization” as they took issue with Wray’s response to the Capitol insurrection; investigations into Donald Trump, President Biden and his family; and the agency’s use of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, among other things. This is FBI Director Christopher Wray during a heated exchange with Wyoming Congressmember Harriet Hageman, who accused Wray of “weaponiz[ing] the FBI against conservatives.” 

Christopher Wray: “The idea that I’m biased against conservatives seems somewhat insane to me, given my own personal background.”

Christopher Wray is a registered Republican appointed by former President Trump.
