U.S. Rep. Dale Strong joined The Dale Jackson Show on Monday morning and discussed the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s current director, the weaponization of the U.S. Department of Justice, and Space Command’s imminent relocation to Huntsville.
Strong noted that a top priority for President-elect Donald Trump upon entering office will be the removal of the current Director of the FBI, Christopher Wray. The Congressman believes that Wray is complicit in the DOJ’s unjust persecution of American citizens.
“You think about what the DOJ has been a part of, especially these last four years, you start looking at Christopher Wray saying he’s not leaving,” Strong (R-Monrovia) said. “I’ll promise you one thing. Donald Trump will remove Christopher Wray as the FBI director.”
North Alabama’s Congressman emphasized that the FBI as a whole is not a problem.
“The problem is with the fifth floor in Washington, D.C. You know, using the FBI, think about it. They forgot about the wiretap of Trump Tower. Anybody believe there’s a problem with that? You start looking at what else they’ve done. Those FISA warrants. Used it against the American people. It’s only supposed to be used against foreigners and this DOJ has just absolutely created a circus.”

According to Strong, the FBI already has a substantial presence in Huntsville and an additional 30,000 agents added to the area “wouldn’t be good.”
“The thing is, we’re already FBI HQ two. There might be some other tentacles that would work perfectly here. We’ll evaluate that.”
“The FBI personnel that are here, they want a better America,” Strong said. “The problem is at headquarters in D.C. There’s a bunch of states that can offer certain things like we’re doing the accounting, we’re doing the cyber, we’re doing the training.”
“There may be some other locations where it would work for America to do that, and I will support it if the President recommends it.”

He also vowed that Trump will finally approve Space Command’s relocation to Redstone Arsenal in Huntsville.
“Donald Trump is going to do what is right for national security. He is not out here trying to get votes. He wants America to be safe. He understands what we have here at Redstone Arsenal, the greater than 40,000 acres behind the wire. He understands our education level. He’s going to make the decision based on what is best for national security. Get ready Space Command is coming to Huntsville.”
