Rep. Mike Garcia, R-Calif., accuses FBI Director Christopher Wray of not being transparent and standing 'relatively silent' about the southern border instead of helping to shape policies on the matter, particularly regarding national security.
Rep. Mike Garcia , R-Calif., blatantly told FBI Director Christopher Wray that he does not trust him, while accusing him of not being transparent and standing 'relatively silent' about the southern border instead of helping to shape policies on the matter, particularly regarding national security .
The legislator told Wray he did not think it was a funding problem, but rather a 'lack of transparency,' along with the 'weaponization and politicization' of issues and instruments used for national security against Americans and institutions, like churches. Garcia accused Wray of standing relatively silent and passive about 'the biggest national security threat' to the U.S.
Last year, I guess the last two years in a row…the FBI seized enough fentanyl to kill 270 million American people,' he said. 'And that gives you a sense of the scale of what we’re up against.' Wray continued to speak about instances with the Sinaloa and CJNG cartels, saying he has asked for help from the Mexican government in dealing with these dangerous criminals.
He then asked if he had gone to Biden and pointed out that the 'border policy is a galactic stupid policy from a national security perspective,' and if so, how it went. 'Well, I’m not going to get into specific conversations with people,' Wray said. 'I’ve been consistent in my message externally and internally about my concerns about the threats that are from the FBI’s perspective, that emanate from the border.
