FBI Director Christopher Wray headed to Capitol Hill on Thursday and defended his agency publicly for the first time since President Trump denigrated it on Twitter last weekend.
“There is no shortage of opinions out there,” Wray told the House Judiciary Committee. “What I can tell you is the FBI I see is tens of thousands of agents and analysts and staff working their tails off to keep Americans safe from the next terrorist attack; gang violence; child predators; spies from Russia, China, North Korea and Iran.”
