6:26Now PlayingRep. Kevin Kiley, D-Calif., 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.
Kiley asked Wray whether he considered the 20-year-old gunman an amateur.
"I don't want to give him the credit of characterizing him as amateur or professional, but what I will say is that there are some things he did that involve a certain amount of planning and preparation," Wray said. "On the other hand, if you're telling me, do I think this is the most sophisticated ever -- of course not. We deal with much more sophisticated adversaries all the time."
Earlier this week, the House Oversight Committee grilled Kimberly Cheatle, director of the U.S. Secret Service at the time of the deadly shooting. 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.
