Sen. Kennedy Wrecks Wray on Why the FBI Didn't Tell the Truth About Hunter's Laptop

FBI Director Christopher Wray testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee on Tuesday.

Wray was questioned by Sen. Lindsay Graham (R-SC) and revealed, "I've never seen a time where all the threats or so many of the threats are all elevated, all at exactly the same time." Graham asked if he was concerned about the elevated threats as the border is broken, and Wray acknowledged that he was concerned.

Wray was also taken to task by Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) over the FBI's failure to fully investigate the alleged corruption of Hunter and Joe Biden.

But he wasn't the only one to put Wray on the spot. Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) asked him a question about the Hunter Biden laptop that was great — a question to which I think we would all like the answer

There was all the furor over the laptop. "Why didn't the FBI just say, hey, the, the, the laptop's real?!" Kennedy asked. "We're not vouching for what's on it, but it's real?"

Wray's response was very unsatisfactory, "We have to be very careful about what we can say, especially in the middle of an election season."

So we're not going to reveal the truth in the middle of the election season. Gee, who did that help?

Does Wray also forget that Mark Zuckerberg revealed how the FBI came to them and warned them about "Russian disinformation" just before the laptop story from the NY Post hit, and that was one of the reasons it was suppressed? They had no problem going around pushing Russian disinformation stories, where was the care in that?

As we reported, the FBI refused to answer direct questions from social media outlets, including Twitter and Facebook asking about the laptop, even though they knew it was real.

Plus, where was the investigation into the laptop before the election? That was also held off until after the election, according to the whistleblowers. What does Wray think the "optics" of that are?

Wray claims they didn't want to affect the election — but then they did exactly that by not pursuing the case, and not only not telling the truth about the laptop, but pushing something that made social media companies believe it wasn't real.

Wray can play this game and spout "ongoing investigation" and pretend this was all an objective exercise and there's no bias going on at the FBI. But he can't even give a straight answer now, and the whistleblowers are revealing the truth. So no one is buying what he's selling.
