Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas, questioned FBI Director Christopher Wray in a House Judiciary hearing Wednesday about the investigation into the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump on July 13 at a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.

Roy asked Wray if any agents had expressed disappointment that Trump had survived the attempted assassination. Wray said no agents had done so, but there was “one instance of an individual who posted something that I consider outrageous and totally inappropriate and unacceptable.” That person has been referred to the agency’s investigatory arm for discipline consideration, Wray said.

The House Oversight Committee grilled Kimberly Cheatle, director of the U.S. Secret Service at the time of the deadly shooting, on Monday. Members on both sides of the aisle called for her resignation and she announced Tuesday she was stepping down. Cheatle repeatedly referred lawmakers seeking details to the investigation being carried out by the FBI.
