Today, FBI Director Christopher Wray will face questions about the FBI role in the attempted assassination of President Trump and their investigation in the aftermath.
To date, despite the significance of the event, no official press conference with the heads of Secret Service, Dept of Homeland Security or the FBI have taken place. There have been ZERO official press conference where USSS, DHS or FBI would answer questions. In the absence of this protocol, which is intentionally missing, congress has stepped into the role of the media and trying to get answers. It’s all sketchy; all of it.
Director Wray appears before the House Judiciary Committee today at 10:00am. Unfortunately, given the long history of the FBI claiming they cannot speak due to never-ending ongoing investigations, I do not anticipate much substantive progress. We are all very frustrated. Livestream Links Below.

Tippy Johnson needs more heroin
Rowe, Cheatle’s replacement, was her 2nd in command and the person actually in charge of day-to-day SS operations.
Dan is torn between the continuing danger for Trump due to no actual SS reform and limiting his campaign to indoor venues from which leftist campaigns could get Trump rallies banned.
Also, do not underestimate Harris’ chances.
Troubling New Video Shows Why The Secret Service Is Hiding The Timeline (Ep. 2293) – 07/24/2024
https://rumble.com/v5895kl-troubling-new-video-shows-why-the-secret-service-is-hiding-the-timeline-ep..html
Just watching some of the Wray testimony today, painful that it is, it is certainly much different than Cheatles testimony. During Cheatles testimony the Congressional Representatives were totally focused on getting answers about J13. They were intense and bi-partisan with tough questions that she did not answer. She took a lot of Congressional heat.
Today the representatives are calm, respectful and their questions are all over the map with a few about J13. What a difference.
Makes me believe the Cheatles testimony was planned to take her out and she knew it in advance. That’s why she was so calm as they raked her over the coals.
So the House can say they did their job and held the SS accountable and they did it together in a bi-partisan way. Now we can wait for 60+ days to get out a report. Congresses job is done.
In 60 days other crisis will arise and J13 will be virtually forgotten. They will improve SS training, get more money for resources and keep President Trump from doing outdoor events.
IMHO
Great observation and well stated. I noticed the difference as well. Every time I tune in today, I see a Dem talking about Paul Pelosi, assault weapons, and the right’s political rhetoric… or Wray’s mealy mouthed feedback. With Cheatles, she was getting spanked every time I checked in.
I agree… Cheatles was told to go take the beating, use “ongoing investigation” and “not sure” answers, then keep an eye on her out-of-country bank account.
An enthusiastic Democrat party is dangerous! They’ll cheat and cover it up by saying
Voters were excited, that’s why there are 100,000,000
Ballots! That is coming! I prefer demoralized democrats! This election now is totally dangerous!
Issa is useless
It’s all about……
💰💰💰💰💰💰💰.
Not ……🇺🇲
Yeah, that was weak
It’s all about 🎭 and having the. 📸 rolling.
Isn’t he the guy who brought us “Johnson Strikes Again?”
I would highly suspect, all by design.
THESE congressional hearings are about bluster and sound bites.
RELEVANT, HARD, DIRECT questions are NEVER asked.
They don’t want the answers and they don’t place those on ‘trial’ to be put in harm’s way or exposed.
THEY ALL have an out…
it’s ALWAYS THE GAME…it’s congress, it’s OUR govt.
We never replace them, vote them out, so they do what they’ve done for 20-30-40Y, LIVE in DC, join ‘the club’ and makign $millions…..
Gaetz is becoming a skinny Nadler
just give him a few years
I wouldn’t be surprised if Gaetz used his time to ask Wray if he “liked Gladiator movies or if he’d seen a grown man naked”🤣🤣
They should have had The head of SS there as well so when FIB says refere to SS they could . Just the same when SS says refer to FIB they could .
Silos Cucumber. They are there to protect the sywamp.
Just ask Sundance.
Mr. Jordan, Democrats, remind me what the purpose of this hearing was supposed to be about?
obstruction of justice
May be nothing, but I noticed something in Wray’s testimony regarding the drone:
Wray repeatedly says the “shooter” was flying the drone. 👀
And the drone was later “found in ‘his’ 👀 car.”
But the other video, images and reports before have Crooks on a bicycle.
Not once did I hear Wray use the name Crooks when referring to the ‘shooter.’
He was simply implying (or misleading) the shooter was Crooks, and if the shooter ‘wasn’t’ Crooks, he avoided perjury technically. <<<<
There’s usually some effort by LE to not use a shooter’s name in order to avoid feeding their notoriety
I don’t recall that with Oswald nor Hinckley.
It’s a post-Columbine protocol/effort.
https://www.police1.com/officer-shootings/articles/more-police-refusing-to-name-shooters-for-fear-of-copycats-3iF0nQWsAf6drr0X/
Not universal for all agencies (each have varing policies) and is for press conferences.
This is sworn Congressional testimony. Details matter, to include omitted ones.
^^^ it’s as important to listen to what they “don’t say” than what they do say… sometimes. Technically didn’t perjure himself.
I don’t think Crooks is the right crook.
I may have misunderstood, but it sounds like Wray just testified that the ladder wasn’t still up against the building when Law Enforcement first got there . . . . . meaning it had been moved by someone AFTER the Punk climbed on to the roof?
Good question
Also, if the snipers left the second
floor …went outside where they
climbed up to look at top of roof
and saw Crooks……
Where was the ladder?
Didn’t even have to do that. All they had to do was walk to side window of the building they were in to look right over and down on him.
BK
Which brings up the question…
Why did both leave their post?
🤔 🤔
Luttrell brought that up yesterday.
Heads Up:
Wray gave an elusive lawyerly answer when asked if it was verified that all 8 cartridges
came from Crooks.
Pivoted to ATF.
yes. he did!
Wray is unaware if he had a scope? SERIOUSLY??
Yeh him saying that was stunning. How in the F did he not remember if the rifle had a scope on it or not? But he remembered it had a foldable stock!
Did the AR-15 have the Chain Saw anti-zombie bayonet attachment?
I was told by a knowledgeable weapons person that what Crooks allegedly fired was a .300 Blackout AR Pistol/Rifle
https://www.usa-gun-shop.com/best-300-blackout-rifles/
Hand him a shovel—
he is digging a hole.
He doesn’t know if there
was a scope? 🤪
Behold, the soulless Adam Schiff. Warming up for his dive into the Lake of Fire!
The FBI is in charge investigating themselves, so they can say and do whatever they want.
MNN BREAKING…
*SPEAKER JOHNSON DEFIANTLY VOWS TO KEEP DHS ASSASSINATION FUNDING AT LAST YEAR’S LEVELS PLUS INFLATION
�
Rest in the Vine: MNN’s CRISIS MANAGEMENT REPORT
Swallow Well wants you defend yourself against gangsters with bolt action rifles.
Just gotta love these libs trying to turn this into a 2A hearing. Sure, keep brining up Sandy Hook, which has LITERALLY nothing to do with the assassination attempt of Donald Trump. Absolute scumbags.
Feels like a rerun of a Jan 6 hearing.
Representative Paypal is so full of bologna. There she goes with Project 2025… if you needed any further proof it was written to hamstring President Trump, they’re delivering.
Seems like questions about J13 is a 4th or 5th priority of this hearing. Gun violence, 2A, Trump, and even
FBI organization issues in reference to Project 2025 recommendations-Giving a potential Trump presidency too much power.
This was an attempted assignation, not general gun violence.
Never let a crisis go to waste-and they do it so good.
Sandy Hook where the shooter’s mother hired a lawyer and psychiatrist then went to court to have her clearly mentally ill son committed shortly before the school shooting.
Incredibly, a Connecticut judge ruled against her setting the teenager free! Mom was his first victim yet the manufacturer of the rifle was sued into bankruptcy despite federal law which provided immunity for firearms manufacturers!
Nobody ever asks the right questions!
Three comments:
Wray doesn’t know the number of counter snipers that were present 7/13?!! Is this not basic information FBI director would be expected to know?!!
Be fair, he’s only had 11 days to dig and review. /sarc
If it was FBI operation.
Should have asked the USSS Director that question.
….but he knows how many casings were found.
Siloed information?
Wray only knows about the current FBI investigation not the details of the Secret Service operation.
Have any of the committee members tried to get answers directly from the USSS Agent in charge of the site that day?
Great question. I’d also like to hear from the two motorcycle officers who were immediately reprimanded and transferred. Never heard anything else about them.
I believe that could be called aiding and abetting a person who committed murder and attempted murder.
I wonder if Comer is ever going to subpoena the phones with the encrypted apps and the people close to the shooter and possibly the Oversight Project people?
I’m guessing the ladder used was placed there by the local sniper team when checking out the roof.
They then decided to post up inside the 2nd story window but left the ladder in place…. intended to or forgot it?
Crooks sees the ladder in place and decides to use it instead of the one he bought.
The shooting happens. Photos are taken with the ladder in place. At some point the LEO’s realizes they %$&$ up and left their ladder in place which helped the shooter gain access to the roof, so they then quietly removed the ladder. Now the FBI is playing dumb with that ladder.
just another innocent oversight, in a long long line of them.
There are two ladders in the first overhead video after the shoooting. One tall one, and a shorter one placed on top of an AC unit next to a door on the building directly behind the shooters building.
Psychopath! Lies with impunity because his lie is “his truth”.
What a travesty of justice! Words like democracy, rule of law, and so on only pertains to their way.
I honestly cannot imagine all this situation in our nation can end well. They are crazed to do anything to maintain power.
IF you want to send any messages to the committee on questions you want answered, as I just did, here is their Contact Form:
https://judiciary.house.gov/contact
I did… some blue-haired clerk will probably just delete it… or have Wray’s goons put me on another list.
It doesn’t go to Wray.
And no one noticed until now. I guess they must have gotten this amount of detail from video-
Hmmmmmm….. Possibly he could have planted a bomb in an appropriate place and no one would have noticed until now.
SS gets $6B+ every year for this stellar work-impressive
They are pushing the lone nut theory hard and have been from the outset. No way that Lee Harvey Crooks scouted that out the morning of and pulled it off. I will never, ever believe it… no matter what comes out or doesn’t.
How many businesses are without surveillance cameras these days? How many businesses are in the surrounding area? How many residential dwellings with home security cameras?
This is more important than shell casing in my opinion.
Let’s play this out:
Crooks to handler (encrypted app): “Yes, I got 5’ ladder”
Handler: “Idiot, that’s not tall enough, I’ll get you a bigger one staged, bring yours just is case”
Crooks saw bigger ladder on walk through earlier in day of assassination.
Occam’s Razor: there is absolutely no way this site just happened to be available, security lacking on roof with perfect angle.
Important questions are: what was the exact orders to local LE, i.e. “we’re short staffed do not leave your position to engage” would lead to the circus of everyone identifying shooter but never just confronting him.
There had to be a decision to not put people on that roof and/or not place obstacles like cranes in between the exposed roof and stage – there’s a Kubota dealer across the street that probably has a few tractors 🤷♂️
To me, I didn’t see where another shooter would have the same angle as Crooks to “assist”.
Someone with skills picked this site for the perfect attempt (roof so close at correct angle (no sun in eyes) and had to have had influence to reduce security causing opportunity. No way Crooks randomly chose this site which provided perfect opportunity which happen to occur before convention.
The upshot of the past 10 days is that we are now all aware that another once-trusted esteemed agency, the Secret Service has been weaponized by the Left against their political opposition. I’m not talking about the worker-ants at the protectee sites, but the leadership above them. One can only feel sorry for the worker-ants as they are not privy to the decision making about the set up of the site for the day they are assigned to. Given the grotesque incompetencies that we just witnessed in the Trump assassination attempt, we can now assume when USSS is given the task to protect someone who is a target of the Left (especially President Trump), decisions are made that are also a potential set-up for the worker-ants to be seriously injured/killed when they try to do their job. NOTHING has changed since Cheatle stepped down. According to Dan Bongino their new acting Director was the one more directly involved in the disastrous PLANNING of security protocols for Trump’s 7/13 rally. Per Bongino he also had oversight over the WH cocaine “investigation” and disappearance of the J6 tapes. Did he also order there to be no recording of radio comms 7/13 ? Where are the whistleblowers who know who made the decisions that day?
It seems OBVIOUS this USSS leadership is in full cooperation with the FBI, IC, and Deep State to use Denial of services, Planned Incompetence, Deception and Gas Lighting as methods to allow/ plan for assassins to take their shots, plant their bombs. The FBI was right on the spot in Butler to “collect” <disappear> evidence, stonewall the media, and interfere with Congressmen attempting to come onsite to get info. What are they hiding? This is an agency that now has ZERO credibility with the public. And instead of continual official briefings by authorities, as we have gotten with these kinds of events since 1963, we get Chris Wray’s arrogant smug evasive puss and the Democrats using the Hearing as an opportunity for giving speeches about the need to destroy 2A.
President Trump’s life is in grave danger. I had always thought he had hired his own private security team so it is very disappointing to learn he is relying on this incompetent, partisan, ill-willed agency for protection. I feel sorry for the agents in the field who have invested their careers, put their lives on the line building retirement benefits, etc who have done an incredible job protecting our leaders and other world leaders who come to this country. Besides witnessing the grotesque transformation of their agency into a political weapon of the Left, they now find themselves with a leadership who appear to have little value for the lives of their own agents, who would deny essential resources and set them up to get shot in the service of allowing an assassination attempt on one of the Left’s political opponents. Heads up to all- you’d better organize your own private security teams.
The same people in charge of the FBI, DOJ and CIA also run the Secret Service and US Marshal’s Service!
And routinely solicit and receive cooperation from state and local law enforcement. We can review that dynamic in PA, as well as many other instances. MAL comes to mind when the fan belt inspectors raided PDJT’s home. State and local cooperated.
When evil comes for gentle readers, expect state and local to be on board. Prepare accordingly.
I feel SD’s frustration. Wish he were there to ask the questions.
Agreed. I’d love to have SD as a debate moderator. Oh the questions he would ask!!
Referral from Blackrock.
Generalize, generalize, generalize. Bury the non-answer in generalizations.
We the people should be asking Wray the questions and not these politically motivated idiots.
They ALLare corrupt, compromised, blackmailed and owned, by enemies of America both foreign and domestic
“Director Wray, can you tell us the progress that’s been made in the investigation of the attempted assassination of the former President?”
“I cannot comment on the progress of the investigation due to an ongoing investigation into the investigation.”
“But that doesn’t make sense.”
“I cannot comment on my comments due to an ongoing investigation of any comments that I might make.”
“WRAY SAYS….”
In numerous posts, Sundance has repeatedly and succinctly pointed out how deeply corrupt both Wray and the FBI as a whole is, to the point of calling for the organization’s dissolution and elimination (which is a congressional discussion worth having).
I therefore find it not a little amusing, regarding anything of true substance, that anyone thinks they can discern actual fact from lie coming from the mouth of this man, including Sundance. That all said, I want to congratulate those who have both the time and gullible interest to tune in to this farce of a pretense.
“Wray says…” should be the title of a sitcom in which all the characters are liars and charlatans, and a congressional hearing featuring Wray would be the ideal 1st episode.
(SPIT)
Honestly, anyone that waste their time watching these sideshows, puts little to no value on their own time. The Democrats use these platforms to push gun control, and the RINOS pretend to care about justice. Meanwhile they’re all thinking… If the kids had just hit their mark, the entire world would be in a state of mourning over President Trumps assassination, and no one would care about WHO in WHICH department didn’t do their jobs or help set up the assassination. They’ll try to drag it out past the election so hopefully the country will be focused on that. Then they’ll end up saying that the kids were just pissed off about Bidens lack of commitment to Gaza. And they were pissed off at President Trumps for his relationship with President Putin, and his commitment to ending the war in Ukraine instead of continuing to fund it. This is just another fiasco, and another version of the pull out of Afghanistan.
Federal election tasks force, coving up Democrat election fraud.
RE: cannot speak due to ongoing investigation
a/k/a FBI pretending not to answer questions and Congressional committees pretending to seek answers
Congress do your job and write a WELL WRITTEN law (not a poorly written one with wide open loopholes as in the past leaving wide open bureaucratic interpretation) to REQUIRE FBI director to answer questions leaving him with no excuses.
Congress, being lawmakers, can solve the problem. You need to tighten the law(s) that he uses for interpretational license.
Congress is able to solve the circular problem. No more wringing your hands. We are waking up and watching you.
If FBI Wray has a problem with interpretation of a law, and in his interpretation he does not cooperate with the important work of the investigating committee, then refer it to court in the aftermath of Chevron.
Force him to answer questions.
Congress, Wray is interpreting a written law, according to his bureaucratic license, which you have passed. The problem is on you.
Why no recorded COMMS?
Where is the coroner’s report, images and under oath testimony?
Where is the under the oath testimony of the lead SS Agent on the ground during the rally?
Has anyone thought to ask / subpoena any satellite imaging?
Was the shooter a member of that shooting range that was alleged to be used by DHS?
How about bringing in The Oversight Project folks regarding their geo phone findings?
How about those encrypted apps and what calls/texts if any were made to who going back 60 days before the shooting?
How about a $10M reward for any information that leads to the arrest of those people involved in a possible conspiracy to murder a US President.
Comer is a HUGE disappointment.
Where is Crook’s DNA test results to make sure it was him and not the other antifa guy that looks exactly like him?
Specifically where in Crooks home was the explosive device located? Was Crooks home as clean as a medical lab when FIB arrived?
Which specific agency was the first to arrive at Crooks home? ( I think it was local LE due to a call from Crooks father.)
Which specific agencies were present when FIB first arrived at Crooks home?
Wish someone would shut down those who keep trying to push banning assault weapon is the answer by pointing out it’s their party who’s for open borders. Thus by extension their open door policy would create and aid the further increase demand/supply such a ban would create for assault weapons on the black market. Of course they never mention let alone address the thousand of weapons criminals already obtain illegally every day.
all the players involved in this obstruction of Justice hearing should be Arrested and Hung
this act is old
they need new material
It’s not iran , Wray is protesting to much and that in it self is a tell , this is pointing at a interagency conspiracy with FBI at the helm
Remember,
RUSSIA, RUSSIA, RUSSIA
So why did the shooter by the ladder and where is it?
Shoots & Ladders…
We shouldn’t be playing games here 🙂
Maintaining your rep.
Seems like the only people getting slaughtered and imprisoned in this country for expressing their political beliefs are Trump supporters. Including J6 folks.
Watched just a little. How have the Douchebags mentioned several times about project 25 and owned by PDJT and not gotten slapped down by Jordan or anyone that PDJT has nothing to do with it???
Media – “No significant online presence.”
Wray – “It appears he was using the drone to live stream.”
Uh – what did he say?
“The Government tried to kill President Trump…”
Benny Johnson on X: “Uh – what did he say? “The Government tried to kill President Trump…” https://t.co/M3lZhx0afY” / X
https://x.com/bennyjohnson/status/1816155109883081053;
The purposeful morons would never think to ask follow up “What recent evidence or updates is FBI looking at, causing them now to determine no ladder used? Is there video?
🤔 🤔
Remember, too, it’s hard to blame Republicans for not wanting to waste their time and seeing this hearing as exactly that.
In the meantime, after doing everything including throwing the kitchen sink at this man, you are going to have to explain why you think Wray is not only worth listening to on this particular occasion, but why he can be seen being honest and truthful vs his consistent track record of the past where he was demonstratively anything but.
As it is, you are showing a huge increase in interest in this hearing vs. Cheatle’s hearing yesterday. I look forward to your analysis, and a potential explanation of this.
The key question is: why should anyone here believe anything the FBI says about the assassination attempt against PDJT…the same people who raided Mar-A-Lago with automatic weapons and a writ to use them.
Who said anything about trusting Wray to be honest and truthful?
Sometimes you listen to sworn testimony from known liars to find out what they are outright lying about or what they are omitting.
And I’m pretty sure that’s what Sundance is doing, in part.
And he’s blaming the Republicans for not being there to ask the questions that no one else has or will.
You asked: “Who said anything about trusting Wray to be honest and truthful?”
A: Sundance did. (see above)
”Wray want to give answers to questions about Crooks assassination effort. Why so forthcoming?
Totally takes absent GOP by surprise, who are meeting with Netanyahu. Maybe that’s why different Wray.”
Answers do not equal truth.
By your own cite of Sundance, it says nothing of “honesty” nor “truthfulness.” Only “answers.”
Maybe Wray is “forthcoming” to spin new narratives or misleading statements to misdirect everyone.
I suppose one could attempt to misdirect that reply also.
Wray told them to scram…or else.
That’s why he was scheduled at the same time as Bibi.
Shelia Jackson Lee was a corrupt slop period, the democrat pos s should show respect to the fallen Fire chief
