'We are living in an elevated threat environment,' FBI Director Christopher Wray testified.
FBI Director Christopher Wray testifies before a House committee about the July 13 shooting at a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, Wednesday, July 24, 2024, on Capitol Hill. Wray said that the FBI will "leave no stone unturned" in its investigation of the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump.
Wray’s testimony before the House Judiciary Committee represents his most detailed comments to date about the July 13 shooting in Butler, Pennsylvania, which has thrust the FBI into a political maelstrom, with the bureau probing the most serious attempt to assassinate a president or presidential candidate since President Ronald Reagan was shot in 1981.
Wray pledged to lawmakers that the FBI would “leave no stone unturned” in its investigation of a shooting that he called despicable and horrific. The hearing had been scheduled well before the July 13 shooting as part of the committee’s routine oversight of the FBI and the Justice Department, and though lawmakers may touch on a broad array of topics, questions about the shooting are expected to dominate the session.
