FBI Director Christopher Wray testified Tuesday before the Senate Judiciary Committee, fielding topics from border security and China to the Hunter Biden investigation.
Wray's testimony came as the FBI faces continued scrutiny by a House investigation into "Weaponized" government under the Biden administration.
Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, grilled Wray about the investigation of Hunter Biden on the same day that three House committees conducting an impeachment inquiry into his father, President Joe Biden, released a report alleging favorable treatment of the Bidens by the Justice Department.
Cruz asked Wray about two IRS whistleblowers' testimony about improper infuence exerted on the agency's tax-related investigation of the younger Biden, who is accused of trading on his father's name in overseas business deals in Ukraine, China, and other countries.
Wray said the drug threats from China go well beyond fentanyl, a deadly narcotic.
"As you might imagine, the FBI cannot, especially in a time like that, be talking about an ongoing investigation," Wray said.
Wray responded again that the FBI couldn't get involved during an election campaign.
