They would've fired him, if he had leaked. I don't think it's the FBI that's leaking. Honeycombe8 Aug 2017 #5

Works for Sessions and Trump...and has done what he was selected to do...slow down the investigation!!!

Why else would the FBI reassign one of their top espionage specialists and investigators, to HR!!!

I never trusted Wray, he's no less of an ass sucking sycophant then the rest of Trump's cabinet is!!!

If that is true, he would be assigned somewhere in a hurry like HR until they found a different place form him. One former FBI agent suggested this would put him out of counterintelligence altogether if he leaked it.

When Manafort knows, he tells the FBI, reports are written and filed...and remember that a number of others knew about the Trump Jr. meeting...it could have been one of a number of people. I think the FBI are the least likely to leak, though not totally out of the question. They know they're being spied on.

agency who was transferred to a low level numbers job. He became a whistleblower. They can't legally fire a whistleblower. But they can file a leaker.

Maybe the guy is just having health problems and needs a 9 to 5 job for a while. I imagine the investigation is requiring long hours.

I thought he was on Mueller's team. No? If he is, Mueller gets to choose his team.

But Wray is bad news. I said so from the start. He has Russian ties, and I didn't like his answers at his confirmation hearing. Even a poster here thought he was a good guy. No, he's not.

He was put there to tell Trump what's going on in the investigation, and to slow it down or impede it.

Who this guy other guy is, I don't know. Could just be a personnel change. Happens all the time. But it's suspicious.
