FBI Director Christopher Wray testified on the investigation into the attempted assassination of former President Trump and oversight of the agency before the House Judiciary Committee. He answered lawmakers' questions on key areas of the investigation following the tragic incident in Butler, PA including details on the shooter’s actions during the rally, his search history, and if there was evidence of a co-conspirator. In addition, Dir. Wray shared concerns about threats of violence, violence against police, threats of terrorism, and foreign influence. "Following the hearing, former President Trump called for Dir.
