The Democratic chair of the Senate Homeland Security Committee blasted the heads of the FBI and Department of Homeland Security on Thursday, issuing a rare but sharp rebuke of the two officials for failing to appear for a public hearing.
Sen. Gary Peters (D-Mich.) said both Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and FBI Director Christopher Wray “refused to appear” before the panel for its annual hearing about threats to the homeland, saying it was the first time in 15 years officials have done so.

Wait a minute. Bannon was jailed for his refusal to testify. Perhaps the next head of the DoJ will enforce similar treatment for these two.

He provided air transport to Laken's murderer to fly to Georgia. We should provide Mayorkis air transport to Venezuela.

It’s so cute that those mere Senators think that Directors of the FBI and Homeland Security should report to them.

“..We should provide Mayorkis air transport to Venezuela....”
Waaaaayyyyy too good for this vile, evil basted.
Instead, we should provide Mayorkis “foot transport” to the gallows for treason, crimes against the People, including 1st degree murder, and domestic terrorism.

... Lankford said the only reason given was that the officials did not want to offer the testimony in public.
In a statement to The Hill, the FBI also said Wray would have appeared in a classified setting for the hearing but did not want to testify in a public setting....
