In reply to the discussion: Best answer to Gov. Scott's demand Wray be fired: [View all]50 Shades Of Blue
(9,975 posts)22. NY Times:
Gov. Rick Scott of Florida said the bureaus failure to act on the tip was unacceptable and called for the bureaus director, Christopher A. Wray, to resign. Seventeen innocent people are dead and acknowledging a mistake isnt going to cut it, Mr. Scott said in a statement. Senator Marco Rubio of Florida also asked for Congress to investigate.
Mr. Wray said in a statement that he was committed to getting to the bottom of what happened in this particular matter, as well as reviewing our processes for responding to information that we receive from the public.
The F.B.I.s admission opened up a new avenue of attack by conservatives who have questioned the impartiality of the bureau in its investigation into Russian intervention in the 2016 election.

The "admission" was that they didn't act on the tip, not that they broke protocol. nt

Did a single Republican call on anyone in the Bush administration to resign over 911?
