After Wray’s questioning whether the previous chairman was killed by a shot during a subsequent assassination attempt, former US president Donald Trump attacked FBI Director Christopher Wray on Thursday. Trump’s censure followed Wray’s notes before Congress, where he expressed ambiguity over whether the wound to Trump’s neck was caused by a bullet, fragmentation, or glass.
Trump attacked Wray on Truth Social, accusing him of lying and claiming that the FBI had omitted the event from its proper investigation. “FBI Director Christopher Wray told Congress yesterday that he was n’t sure if I was hit by shrapnel, glass, or a bullet ( the FBI never even checked! ), but he knew Crooked Joe Biden was “unfortunately” – Bad” both physically and psychologically. Trump wrote. Additionally, he claimed that Wray was out of touch with the reality of international crime, and that the FBI author’s target was misplaced, according to the New York Post.
The former president claimed that he was shot while seated at the podium during the outside protest after being struck by a shot.
The discussion erupted following a House Judiciary Committee meeting on Wednesday, during which Wray responded to questions about the killing at Trump’s campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on July 13. Wray noted the confusion regarding the cause of Trump’s hearing wound, stating,” With respect to previous President Trump, there’s some problem about whether or not it’s a gun or debris that hit his ear”.
Trump, who appointed Wray to his place, strongly disagreed with this analysis. ” There was no cup, there was no debris. The doctor called it a’ shot scar to the hearing,’ and that is what it was”, he asserted.
The FBI’s killing reconstruction team is looking into the situation at this time. Officials are looking into metal fragments and various pieces of debris recovered from the stage area to ascertain the nature of the injury. The killing, which occurred during Trump’s outside protest, injured three different people and killed one visitor. The aggressor, Thomas Matthew Crooks, was rapidly neutralised by Secret Service agents.
Trump’s vehement criticism of governmental agencies comes in stark contrast to his continued censure of them, accusing them of failing to address pressing safety issues and turning instead to politically motivated investigations. Authorities are trying to piece together the events surrounding the strike and the desires of the would-be killer as the FBI’s investigation into the march shooting continues.
