FBI Director Christopher Wray on Tuesday warned that the threat of a terror attack against Americans has been raised to a "whole other level" due to ongoing conflict in the Middle East.

"The reality is that the terrorism threat has been elevated throughout 2023, but the ongoing war in the Middle East has raised the threat of an attack against Americans in the United States to a whole other level," Wray told lawmakers on the Senate Homeland Security Committee.

House Judiciary Committee Chair Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, is stepping up the investigation into government "collusion" with Big Tech to censor dissent, issuing subpoenas to FBI Director Chris Wray and Attorney General Merrick Garland.

The official subpoenas came Thursday amid "woefully inadequate" responses to "requesting voluntary cooperation with oversight," according to the House Judiciary Committee news release.

FBI Director Christopher Wray testified last month that only “a single field office” from the bureau investigated traditional Catholics as potential domestic terrorists, but the top official may have lied under oath after House GOP lawmakers discovered multiple field offices nationwide were involved in producing the anti-Catholic memo.

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.

Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee grilled FBI Director Chris Wray Wednesday about the alleged “weaponization” of law enforcement agencies against former President Donald Trump and conservatives and accused the FBI of failing to aggressively go after the Bidens.

Democrats on the panel pressed Wray about Trump’s involvement in the Jan. 6 Capitol attack and the former president’s mishandling of classified documents for which he has been charged.

FBI Director Christopher Wray said during a contentious House committee hearing on Wednesday that it is "somewhat insane" for anyone to suggest that he harbors a bias against conservatives.

"Well, first off, I would disagree with your characterization of the FBI and certainly your description of my own approach," Wray said in response to a grilling from Wyoming Republican Rep. Harriet Hageman over accusations that the FBI has become "weaponized" against conservatives.

FBI Director Chris Way rejected Republicans' wide-ranging criticism at a congressional hearing on Wednesday that targeted everything from the bureau's handling of a probe into Hunter Biden to claims it encouraged social media companies to censor conservative views.

Wray appeared before the Republican-led U.S. House of Representatives Judiciary Committee panel for the first time since former President Donald Trump was indicted for retaining highly classified documents and obstructing justice.

FBI Director Christopher Wray insisted Wednesday that the bureau is "absolutely not" protecting the Biden family, amid allegations that the Hunter Biden probe was influenced by politics.

But Wray also refused to answer questions from House Judiciary Committee lawmakers on whether President Biden is under federal investigation for an alleged criminal bribery scheme.

Wray told the committee about the good work of the FBI, denied any alleged politicization within the bureau, and blasted claims that he is biased against conservatives as "somewhat insane."

FBI Director Christopher Wray on Wednesday navigated hours of questions about the credibility of the bureau, as House Judiciary Committee Republicans increasingly seek to pin the agency as politically biased.

Wray, a Trump appointee, was at times aided by Democrats who sought to defend the bureau’s actions by highlighting wrongdoing by Trump or his associates.

FBI Director Chris Wray on Wednesday said GOP accusations that he used his power to oppress conservatives are “insane.”

After Republicans complained for several hours during a House Judiciary Committee hearing that the FBI had been “weaponized” against GOPers, Wray offered a reality check.

“The idea that I am biased against conservatives seems somewhat insane to me, given my own personal background,” he said in response to a question from Rep. Harriet Hageman (R-Wyo.).
