Christopher Wray's Congress Testimony—Five Key Moments
Politics,FBI,Christopher Wray,House Judiciary Committee
FBI Director Christopher Wray faced a grilling on Wednesday as he took questions from members of the House Judiciary Committee.
Wray was subjected to accusations from Republican members on the committee that the federal agency has become politically weaponized against Donald Trump and other GOP figures, while it has been failing to sufficiently investigate President Joe Biden and his family.
In a statement ahead of Wednesday's hearing, the White House accused "extreme House Republicans" of believing that the FBI that should exist in the country would be one that "suits their own partisan political agenda."
Newsweek has compiled some of the key moments from the hearing involving Wray.
