Wray’s Wrath

FBI Director Christopher Wray testified before the Senate last week. His testimony was robotic and emotionless, and he left before senators had finished asking all their questions. 

But today Wray is angry because there are threats against him and FBI agents following the outrageous raid on President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home. Evidently, there was some kind of incident at an FBI office in Cincinnati today.

This is a moment for clarity. It is not acceptable for anyone to make death threats against government officials and law enforcement. Period.

In fact, any loose talk about violence could very well be used by corrupt officials to further attack our constitutional liberties. So, it’s wrong morally and it’s stupid politically.

But here’s what I want to know.

Where was Wray’s passion and anger when the Russian collusion hoax was exposed?

Where was Wray’s passion and anger when a wannabe assassin threatened the lives of three Supreme Court justices? 

Where is Wray’s concern about violence as dozens of churches and crisis pregnancy centers are being firebombed and attacked?

Where was Wray’s concern about violence when Joe Biden and other leftists accused police of being “systemically racist” or compared law enforcement officers to Nazis? Police officers are being killed in unprecedented numbers.

If you think I’m exaggerating just think back a few months. Attorney General Garland enlisted Director Wray to target concerned parents as domestic terrorists. Why? Because they dared to go to school board meetings to object to their children being called racists!

Here’s the bottom line: The Biden Administration plays the violence card whenever it suits them. Threats against Supreme Court justices, not so much. But emotional criticism of corruption in the FBI, well, that’s a dangerous threat.

Let me repeat: It is morally unacceptable to threaten or commit violence against government officials. 

But this corrupt administration and the intolerant, totalitarian left, that is increasingly employing force and intimidation to crush dissent, has no claim to the moral high ground.
