Senator Graham praises FBI Director Wray for helping investigation of Crossfire Hurricane
|
 [Washington Examiner] Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham praised FBI Director Christopher Wray for the bureau’s cooperation with the Republican’s investigation into the Trump-Russia investigators as the 2020 election looms.
After meeting with Graham in late August, Wray sent the senator a letter last week that was made public Tuesday in which the bureau highlighted "the many meaningful steps taken under Director Wray's leadership to ensure the failures of Crossfire Hurricane are not repeated" and vowed that "the FBI continues to cooperate fully with this Committee's investigation." Graham’s office said that he "has continued to press the FBI for answers about how and why the Crossfire Hurricane investigation got so off track."
"I very much appreciate this update from the FBI," Graham said on Tuesday. "FBI Director Wray and his team are helping the committee perform vital oversight. I know Director Wray wants to repair the damage done by Crossfire Hurricane. He is working to rebuild the credibility of the FBI."
Wray has faced criticism from a number of Republicans, including Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio, who accused the director of slow-walking responses to information requests related to the Russia investigation, and President Trump, who said in May that "the jury is still out" on Wray. Attorney General William Barr has defended Wray amid the flurry of GOP critiques.
Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz released a report in December that criticized the Justice Department and the FBI for at least 17 "significant errors and omissions" related to the FISA warrants against former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page and for the bureau's reliance on British ex-spy Christopher Steele’s discredited dossier. Steele put his research together at the behest of Fusion GPS, which was funded by Clinton's campaign and the Democratic National Committee.
Declassified footnotes from Horowitz’s report indicate that the bureau became aware that Steele’s dossier may have been compromised by Russian disinformation, and FBI interviews show Steele’s primary subsource undercut the credibility of the dossier.
