According to the FBI Director Wray, the FBI provided the White House with information about Rob Porter last year. The White House is lying about what they knew and when they knew it. https://t.co/J4TsEXQZin #RobPorter #FBI pic.twitter.com/xI3yW8k5YW — Sarah Reese Jones (@PoliticusSarah) February 13, 2018

When asked by Sen. Ron Wyden when the White House knew about Porter, FBI Director Christopher Wray answered, “Well, senator, there’s a limit to what I can tell you is that the FBI submitted a partial report on the investigation in question in March and a completed background investigation in late July that soon thereafter we received requests for follow-up inquiry, and we did the follow-up and provided that information in November and that we administratively closed the file in January and then earlier this month we received some additional information, and we passed that on as well.”

The White House story doesn’t jive with the Wray testimony

The White House claimed that Porter’s security was still going on and that they just found out about the domestic violence last week. None of these stories appear to be true. The White House wasn’t in the dark about Christopher Wray. They were covering it up. The Trump White House has made the Porter scandal a thousand times worse by refusing to tell the truth and come clean. The White House protected and promoted a serial domestic abuser, who should never have had a job in the administration.

The truth is coming out, and it is a damning indictment of this entire administration.
