Not the first time we have had high-level functionaries admit that they are totally incompetent, because that’s the only choice other than bare-faced liars.
Obama was always claiming about some document or event that he only found out about it from the news. Possibly that was true, but I think most of the time is was a lie in service of deflecting from his lies regarding his agenda.
Apparently, people under him just did things and didn’t bother to tell him.
That’s likely true — but there was a lot of nudge, nudge, wink, wink.

OTOH, some of them really are that incompetent.
Peter Heck of Not the Bee has the receipts.

“The Biden administration is woefully unprepared for everything”

Are you KIDDING me ? Something leaked by a whistleblower and reported in the media and you didn’t IMMEDIATELY find out the exact truth of the report ?

How goddam stupid do you think we are ? Unreal

Those in govt who testify before congress know they can lie with total impunity and by their non-answers and bald faced lies, are openly mocking the “citizen’s representative,” who is posing the questions

It’s clear that those within the govt brought before these committees for questioning, believe it’s a total joke and that those asking the questions are just idiots.

Aside from Wray, the two biggest liars ever to appear before this powerless committees were / are Hillary Clinton and Alejandro Mayorkas; the latter never having uttered one truthful remark.
They told more lies than Jimmy Hoffa did when he was dragged before some congressional committee.

Our govt. is broken; it really is.
And half of the citizenry (if not more) and the demokrats in DC hope to break it even further.
This Mayorkas SOB really belongs in jail

Tillerson is a very accomplished man. The problem was he did not respect the man for whom he was working. Wray I think was appointed on Rosenstein’s recommendation. Wray, is, of course, a Bush Administration alumnus. Did you catch Richard Cheney’s new ad for his daughter? I regret every word I ever uttered in his defense and in Bush’s defense. Richard Cheney is not your friend.

He and Rex Tillerson impressed Trump (they wore the correct executive suits).

Blackburn asked if Wray would agree that Russia collusion was a “hoax.” He said that he wouldn’t use the terminology. When asked if he agreed that the Hunter Biden laptop was not Russian disinformation, he said, “I can’t comment on that.” He claimed it was an “ongoing” investigation. He wouldn’t even admit they had the laptop.

The fact that the laptop is not Russian disinformation is not part of the investigation. It would be one thing if you were asking about the investigation into Hunter Biden. If you can’t even admit to certain basic truths, that shows how compromised he, and therefore the FBI, are at this point.

So, what exactly can he comment on? All he seems to know how to do is evade questions and turn the FBI into a completely politicized mess.

Then when the senators started to call him out on it, what was his response? Sorry, guys, I can’t stick around, I have to catch a plane. Yes, he seriously said that to Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA).

That astonished Grassley, who nailed him with a little reality, saying but you have “your own plane.”… that we pay for.

And cruisin’ with Cruz —

“Also on this list is the Gadsden flag as a symbol of violent extremism,” Cruz continued. “Now, the State of Virginia has a license plate with the Gadsden flag — as do many other states,” he said. “I think people would be astonished to find that having that license plate, the FBI indicates that you’re a violent extremist.”

“As a Texan, I was particularly struck,” Cruz added, “by the Gonzales Battle Flag — ‘Come and Take It’ — as indicative of being a violent extremist militia. Well, I will self-report right now that every day in the Senate I wear my boots that have the Gonzalez Battle Flag on the back,” Cruz declared, smacking his boot on the dais.

Being born and bred in Texas, an attack on the Gonzales battle flag is offensive and triggering to me, and makes me think that the FBI is committing hate speech, which is just like violence, and is not promoting safe spaces for marginalized people like us patriots.

For all y’all uneducated Yankees – 😉
