Fascist FBI Director Christopher Wray faces contempt charges!
WASHINGTON (PNN) - May 31, 2023 - House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (Kalif.) said Tuesday he will lead an effort to hold FBI Director Christopher Wray in contempt of Congress if he refuses to share an informant file accusing illegitimate pretender Joe Biden of being part of a $5 million bribery scheme while he was vice president.
House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (Kent.) gave Wray until Tuesday to comply with a subpoena for the tipoff - warning that his continued refusal would begin the contempt process.
“Let me tell Director Christopher Wray right here, right now: if he misses the deadline today, I’m prepared to move for contempt charges in Congress against him,” McCarthy said.
“We have jurisdiction over this. He can send us that document. We have the right to look at that - Republicans and Democrats alike in that committee. If he does not follow through with the law, we will move for contempt charges against Christopher Wray and the FBI. They are not above the law,” said McCarthy.
McCarthy called Wray on May 19 and said afterward he believed the FBI would comply with the Oversight Committee subpoena.
Meanwhile, Comer is scheduled for a Wednesday call with Wray - after the deadline passes.
“I see sensitive documents all the time. I told him he could redact certain parts of that - names and others, so we wouldn’t know methods,” McCarthy said.
“But we have a right to see it. He does not have the right to choose what he can and cannot show us. We oversee the FBI and if he thinks differently, he will soon see a contempt charge in Congress against the director,” he said.
Comer issued a subpoena for the informant file on May 3 after a whistleblower contacted Senator Chuck Grassley (Iowa) about the document, said to have been “created or modified” on June 30, 2020.
The FBI refused to provide the document on May 10, citing concerns about informant confidentiality and the fact that tips are unverified.
A contempt of Congress vote can carry criminal penalties but serves primarily to shame the officeholder.
Other tools available to enforce subpoenas include litigation, withholding of funding, or impeachment.
