On Wednesday, FBI Director Christopher Wray gave testimony before a Senate Appropriations Subcommittee regarding his annual budget request.
Over the last few years, the FBI has been the subject of many controversial issues. Wray was sadly mistaken if he thought that he could just come to the FBI and talk about how much money he wanted. He did want money. $11.3 billion in fiscal year 2025. This is $661 million higher than the amount of 2023.
I think there was a question that he did not expect to receive.
John Kennedy, R-LA, went to the site. He said that they knew Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxiwell were “engaged in a conspiracy to sex-traffic with minors.”
Kennedy went on to say, “And so were others.” What is the FBI doing about the other people involved in the sex-trafficking rings?

Wray stammered, saying he was not sure whether he could confirm or deny anything.
Kennedy pointed out that there’s been a report that “Jeffrey Epstein installed video surveillance at all his homes, including his private island.” Kennedy stated that Epstein had “videotaped sexual acts with prominent people …. with young girls he procured” in order to curry favor and possibly blackmail them.
Do you have these tapes? Kennedy asked.
Wray was unsure if he could make any comments. They still refuse to admit that they are doing anything. What are the chances that they will actually do something? Probability of hell freezing out.
Kennedy said that someone had filed a lawsuit against someone who was alleged to be “prominent”.
He seemed to be referring to the following:
According to a lawsuit filed by a former model and Jeffrey Epstein victim, prominent psychiatrist Henry Jarecki is a friend of the disgraced financier. He raped this woman rather than treating her depression complaints.
Jarecki is 91 years old and has a medical background. He’s also a professor at Yale University, a co-founder of Moviefone, and a billionaire trader in metals.
Kennedy asked if “prominent” people were “above law” or under investigation?
Wray made the hilarious claim that “Nobody is above the Law”, even though we have seen how many people seem to be above the law when they are on the Left or have “D” in front of their name. Oh, and apparently, people who are involved in child sex rings also have the right to be above the law.
Kennedy asks Wray if the question in general is being investigated. Wray replied, “I don’t know if there’s any information I can give you about that,” and said he would have to follow up with him. Chances that he will? I wouldn’t wager on it. Kennedy suggested that Wray read this latest issue, as “it will trigger your gag reflex.”
“Is there an FBI investigation, or will these people get off scot free?” Kennedy asked.
The FBI is on a manhunt for everyone who was involved in the Jan. 6 riot, even if they only committed minor offenses. This is unlike other leftist protests/riots that were handled. The FBI has no problem locking up grandmothers who protest outside abortion clinics.
Sen. Marsha BLACKBURN (R-TN), questioned Wray about reports in December that the FBI had not pursued a particular case even though a victim repeatedly provided them with information. She also demanded the flight logs.
Epstein clients, who were allegedly in Epstein lists and on video, or even complained by alleged victims seem to be given a free pass. The FBI also plays the “I’ll be back to you” game.
