A list of puns related to "Christopher A. Wray"
The archived Tweet can be found here. This is technically a repost due to being Rule 3'ed on KiA. Twice. Given how this covers a relevant event involving free speech, Andy Ngo and censorious activists, I'd say this is particularly significant. But I digress.
Sen. Cruz also provides the full letter:

The Washington Examiner, meanwhile, provides further details, like this:
>The hearing took place days after Cruz and fellow Republican Sen. Bill Cassidy of Louisiana filed a resolution Thursday to categorize antifa as a domestic terrorist organization.
>
>The resolution says the group diametrically opposes First Amendment values of peaceful assembly and free speech. It also cites the physical assault of journalist Andy Ngo in Portland, Oregon, in late June and the threats antifa members have issued toward employees of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
>
>The resolution also calls on the federal government to deploy "all available and appropriate tools" to combat the spread and growth of domestic terrorism in the U.S., grouping antifa in with white supremacist terrorism.
>
>Cruz told Wray that his letter to the DOJ and the FBI will also "focus on some local elected officials who have chosen to deny police protection to their citizens based on political ideology. That is a pattern that we have seen with politicians who favored Klan violence and I think every citizen deserves law enforcement protection regardless of their political ideology."
>
>This appears to target Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler, a Democrat, whom Cruz accused of ordering his police officers to let citizens be attacked by "domestic terrorists" after the assault on Ngo

From the article :- Christopher Wray was an assistant attorney general from 2003 to 2005 and was one of the lawyers representing New Jersey Governor Chris Christie during the "Bridgegate" scandal
To reiterate the questions. Is he a good nominee and does he stand any chance of being confirmed given everything surrounding his nomination?
