WASHINGTON (AP) — The confirmation hearing for Christopher Wray, President Donald Trump’s choice for FBI director, will be held July 12.
Sen. Chuck Grassley, chairman of the Judiciary Committee, announced Wednesday that his panel will hold the hearing next week for Wray, a white-collar defense lawyer with a strong law enforcement background.
If confirmed by the Senate, Wray would replace James Comey. Trump fired Comey on May 9, touching off an outcry.
Wray was a high-ranking official in George W. Bush’s Justice Department and later represented New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie in the Bridgegate scandal.
Wray rose to head the Justice Department’s criminal division in the Bush administration and oversaw investigations into corporate fraud. He took charge of a task force of prosecutors and FBI agents created to investigate the Enron scandal.
The fact that he’s willing to become one of Trump’s Nazgul tells me all I need to know about this jerkoff.
Agreed, and the fact that Senator Grasshole is dissing McCabe, who seems to be the more qualified choice, reinforces that view.
Mr. McCabe wasn’t nominate so what does Sen Grassley’s opinion about him matter?
Because anyone supporting Donnie will do anything to prevent qualified people from serving. If Grasshole is dissing McCsbe, Donnie really doesn’t want him anywhere in contention for a nomination.
