FBI Director Wray Faces GOP Critics in Testimony

FBI Director Christopher Wray is set to testify before Congress, facing criticism from Republicans who once defended the bureau but now denounce it as a weapon against former President Donald Trump and his supporters. The House Judiciary Committee, led by Representative Jim Jordan, plans to examine the politicization of the FBI under Wray and Attorney General Merrick Garland. Republicans will likely focus on various issues, including the Trump campaign's Russia investigation, the search of Mar-a-Lago, the plea agreement with Hunter Biden, and the findings of the Durham investigation. Wray is expected to defend the FBI's nonpartisan nature and decline to discuss ongoing investigations. The political attacks on the FBI have raised concerns about public trust in the agency.
