Issa to Wray: You'd better get serious about the Durham report

House Republicans are “pleased” with findings in the 300-page report from U.S. Special Counsel John Durham that the FBI lacked evidence to investigate Donald Trump’s first presidential campaign in 2016, but not happy to see FBI Director Christopher Wray’s reactions, Rep. Darrell Issa tells Newsmax.

“I just left Chairman [Jim] Jordan and of course we’re pleased that we have 300 pages of fact, to bolster the reality that the [2016] election was tipped by the FBI and the Department of Justice, but we’re not happy to see Christopher Wray try to pretend that everything’s going to be OK,” the California Republican said on Newsmax’s “The Record With Greta Van Susteren.”

The report also proves there has been “more than a decade of repeat offenses” from the FBI, and the “theme is, it only offends against Republicans. It is a classic example of the weaponization of the government against its people,” Issa added.

[The FBI’s official statement offered no repentance, and no sense of urgency. They claimed to have fixed these problems with reforms in 2018-19, but Wray and the DoJ are still stonewalling House Oversight and Judiciary committees on materials demanded for investigations. That doesn’t exactly breed confidence in reform. — Ed]
