NextImg:FBI Director's Answers About Trump Rally Gunman's Drone and Encryption Raise Even MORE Questions

On Monday, former Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle faced bipartisan calls on her to resign, and yesterday that's exactly what happened.

A House hearing featuring testimony from FBI Director Christopher Wray is so far a little less contentious, but Wray has given a few answers that are only bound to lead to even more questions.

Wray did confirm the shooter's use of a drone and encrypted messaging apps and possession of "relatively crude" explosives:

Julie Kelly's full post:

Wray says drone recovered in Crooks' vehicle--don't know which one--and he flew it around the area (not stage Wray says) btw 3:50-4pm to "live stream" vicinity. 

Wray says investigators recovered 3 explosive devices--two in vehicle and one at home. "Relatively crude" but could be detonated remotely. 

Crooks had a transmitter with him. 

Wray says Crooks used encrypted messaging apps. J

ordan says Congress wants access to those messages. 

Adjourned for votes.

Here's video of the exchanges:

Wray did add "we think" to some of his responses so there isn't a lot of "we know" information on display from the FBI director at today's hearing.

As usual, Wray's comments bring up more questions:

Perhaps a member of the committee will get to that issue when the hearing resumes.

The apparent ease with which the gunman gained access to the area, specifically the roof while rally-goers attempted to point him out, demands answers.

Wray said the shooter used encrypted comms so now the other question becomes who he was communicating with.
