President Donald Trump is not worried that FBI Director Christopher Wray will resign if the White House approves the release of a controversial intelligence memo alleging misconduct by bureau officials, Kellyanne Conway said Friday.
The counselor to the president was responding to reports that top White House aides fear a potential resignation from Wray. During the interview, Conway reasserted the presidents confidence in the law enforcement agency.
The president has not expressed that concern at all, Conway told Fox News, adding that the president holds respect for the rank and file employees at the FBI.
Wray and the FBI expressed grave concerns on Wednesday over the pending release of a memo compiled by staffers for House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes that alleges the bureau was overzealous in its probe on Russian election interference.

(23,105 posts)He wants to fire Rosenstein and Wray, appoint a Russian/drumpf loyalist who knows and cares nothing for the law and who will quickly fire Muller and everyone in the agency who refuses to swear personal fealty and loyalty to drumpf above the law and the constitution. This is why this whole thing is being done, radically changing our judicial and law enforcement systems, on the way to destroying our constitutional way of life. Putin is so pleased with his puppets following orders.
Fixed punctuation problem.

I don't think Wray will resign, though.
