FBI Director Christopher Wray had barely completed his opening statement at the House Judiciary Committee’s FBI oversight hearing on July 12 when Rep. Mike Johnson (R-La.) began a rapid-fire barrage of pointed questions that culminated in a clash of utterly opposed perspectives.

“On July 4th, we had this explosive, explosive 155-page opinion from a federal court in my home state of Louisiana that explains in detail that the FBI has been indirectly involved in what the court says, and I quote, ‘what is arguably the most massive attack on free speech in United States history,” Mr. Johnson told Mr. Wray.
