Christopher Wray

Former CIA and FBI Director William Webster wrote that President Donald Trump calling FBI professionals "scum" was a "slur against people who risk their lives to keep us safe" in a New York Times opinion piece Monday.

The president said FBI Director Christopher Wray would "never be able to fix" the agency following his response to the Inspector General's report released yesterday.

During the Senate Homeland Security Committee, Senator Kamala Harris questioned the FBI Director a series of questions ranging from where his loyalty lies to what kind of clearance Giuliani has at the White House.

"The former highest ranking employees in his bureau committed real crimes, and yet no signs that Wray seems to care one bit to bring them to justice, or working to prevent this abuse of power hyperpartisan conduct from ever, ever happening again," Hannity said on Monday.

"It seems that individuals in the Justice Department at the highest levels who seem to state the facts and the law as they exist seem to not do well," said former Deputy Assistant Attorney General Elliot Williams.

"I would tell you that rumors about damage to our moral or brand are grievously overstated," the FBI director said.

"Russia is in many ways, fighting to stay relevant after the fall of the Soviet Union," the FBI head argued. "They're fighting today's fight," he said, while pointing out that China makes decisions with the future in mind.

Russian attacks on our democracy are a clear threat aimed at the heart of America, but Trump is more concerned with his wall.

"I'm a low-key understated guy, but that should not be mistaken for what my spine is made out of," Wray said. "I'll just leave it at that."

Under pressure, the Justice Department provided access to the original document that launched the investigation into Russian election interference.

Congress has demanded 1.2 million documents, and the FBI and Justice Department have appointed a prosecutor to oversee delivery.

Trump and his allies had scrutinized McCabe for campaign contributions his wife once received.

President questioned top FBI lawman on how he voted, raising concerns amongst former officials.

After Christopher Wray's threat, the attorney general apparently backed off from his call to fire Andrew McCabe.

Andrew McCabe has been a target of both Jeff Sessions and President Donald Trump.

Trump and other Republicans have accused Andrew McCabe of misconduct.

The FBI Agents Association's Tom O'Connor responded to criticisms by Trump and others.

"Wray needs to do his job and tell all of them to cut it out. If Wray can't do that he should resign," Richard Painter tweeted.

Public figures including John Brennan and Joe Scarborough have said they donated.

The president spoke at the FBI Academy in Quantico.

Wray appeared before the House Judiciary Committee after Trump said the reputation of the bureau was "in tatters."
