The tone across leftwing news grew somber on Wednesday, as news broke during the 2:00 p.m. Eastern hour that FBI Director Chris Wray planned to resign from his post by the end of the Biden Administration. This announcement sparked another flurry of panic among corporate journalists, who worried that the FBI under incoming President Trump would rapidly morph into a political revenge machine aimed squarely at Trump’s perceived enemies.

Within minutes of the news breaking, feckless regime apparatchik and former FBI agent Frank Figliuzzi had scurried to the nearest camera, and was proclaiming on MSNBC that this was “a sad day for the institution” of the FBI. He continued: “There’s a reason why the FBI Directors serve a 10-year term. It’s to be able to stay out and and above the political fray of Washington, D.C.”

Figliuzzi later speculated that with Wray gone, U.S. Attorneys loyal to Trump might direct the FBI “to not open counterintelligence cases on Russia.”

Most of the early coverage was tinged with the sort of commentary that wouldn’t pass a middle school civics class — specifically, the idea that you can’t just fire the FBI Director!

Former fed and routine TV guest Asha Rangappa appeared on ABC News Live to complain that Wray had not yet finished his ten-year term: “I just want to emphasize what a departure from the norms this is. We’ve become used to Presidents firing FBI directors!”

CIA stooge Ken Dilanian on NBC raised the same objection: “This is a norm-shattering event! The second FBI Director Trump is forcing out before serving a ten-year term.”

Over on CNN, Evan Perez worried that Wray’s departure would “normalize” the notion that “you can just replace FBI Directors when you just don’t like what they’re doing.” (Fact check: the President can, in fact, “just replace” the FBI Director).

Perez added that when Wray made his announcement, “there were some people who were seen crying in the room.”

Wray’s tenure as FBI Director was fraught with controversy. Most obviously, he notoriously co-approved the unprecedented FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago back in 2022. This marked the first time federal law enforcement had ever been sent to raid a former President’s residence.

Speaking of politicization, Wray’s FBI raised eyebrows across the political spectrum when agents began investigating parents who dared raised concerns about queer marxist ideology during school board meetings. Agents were also found to have gone after traditional Catholics.

Throughout his term, Wray repeatedly (and seemingly intentionally) generated quotes for Democrats and their media allies to brandish against Republicans. He once argued that white supremacy was the single greatest terror threat facing America.

And back in 2020, Wray absurdly denied the existence of Antifa as a radical, left-wing extremist group: “We look at Antifa as more of an ideology or a movement than an organization.”

Here’s a brief tidbit to demonstrate just how counterfactual Wray’s understanding of Antifa truly has been. When prosecutors began a case against the “So Cal Antifa” group in San Diego Superior Court, the presiding Judge, Daniel Goldstein, expressed doubt that the defendants operated as an organized group. But by the end of the case, the Judge’s mind had been changed completely, thanks to the overwhelming amount of evidence prosecutors brought.

At the sentencing in July of 2024, Goldstein remarked: “I don’t have any question that this organization exists.”

Considering all of his hijinks, it’s no surprise that the pro-DNC media were left devastated by Wray’s departure. At every turn, Wray went after the people they hated, while defending the left’s violent vanguard. Whenever something happens in Washington, D.C. that makes Ken Dilanian look like he’s about to cry, it’s usually safe to consider it good news.
