During the Lester Holt interview, Wray was asked by an audience member (toward the end) "What question weren't asked that you wish had been"
His response was BRILLIANT:
As to the question I wasn't asked is why is not all the other unbelievable work
that is done by the men and women of the FBI every day in this country, the
hundreds and hundreds of violent gang members that are being put away just
this year alone, the hundreds of kids that are rescued just this year alone, the
terrorist attacks that have been disrupted in the last twelve months or less, why
is all that not being talked about?
If you, and in no disrespect to our good friends in the news media, but if watch
television, you would think the FBI basically has had only two investigations.
Both involving the last presidential election. And hopefully it's not a shock to
anybody in this room that we actually have 37,000 men and women, brave,
principled, selfless people who work their tails off who are inspiring people to
work with. And I think we need more people in America asking what are those people doing?
