WRAY: So it is true ... as to the who. I am not sure as I sit here whether it is true as to the what questions.

I’m not sure if you’re having a comprehension problem or just prone to flights of fancy.
Just curious, do you understand that “took direction from the White House” doesn’t mean that the White House provided the FBI and exclusive list of those who will be questioned. It mean that the White House provided names of those they wanted to be included.
And, do you understand that Wray’s response means he’s not sure whether or not the WH had any input at all on the questions that were asked?

May I be one to say.....after reading the last posting.
There are a few voices here, who if ever we were to meet face to face.
Would not be so bold a proponent or brave in their comments, rather cowering away in silence. Mumbling to themselves how righteous and superior they be.
If they ever came out from their distorted views for a moment risking a dose of reality.

I understand that such a response might be bothersome to you, but it doesn't mean the response is wrong.

Retreating to his safe space... "Never give up, never surrender, only my sources speak the truth." LOL

If you catch me in a lie and you accuse me of lying and I respond "but I never lie", what you gonna do?
That is the Whellian defense, a brick wall of denial.

Nope, in the supplemental background investigation, the White House Counsel (McGahn was a friend of Kavanaugh) received the same tips from the tip line as the FBI and then told the FBI who could be interviewed.

Dang, and I just drove through Louisville last week. Next time I'm down that way, I'll buy you a beer and regale you with my "distorted views".

It seems like the gist of Whell's arguments in this thread have been cogently distilled by the poster child of modern American conservatism.
