The FBI took a virtual beating on Thursday for an X post highlighting Director Christopher Wray’s “warning” to foreign actors who might have designs on meddling in American elections: “Knock it off.”
With a display of force not seen since President Joe Biden told Iran, “don’t” enlist terrorist proxies like Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis to attack Israel — or since Vice President Kamala Harris warned migrants, “do not come” — Wray urged foreign adversaries to butt out and leave American elections alone.
“‘Knock it off.’ — Says FBI Director Christopher Wray to foreign adversaries meddling in American democracy,” the post read.

Critics made it clear that they fully expected Wray’s directive to be equally as effective as Harris’ and Biden’s had been — which is to say, not in the least — and they took to X to mock the bureau.
“A fail-proof tactic,” Chuck Ross said of Wray’s strategy.
