Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), Ranking Member on the Senate Judiciary Committee, wrote a letter to FBI Director Christopher Wray on Friday demanding that he correct his controversial statement from his House hearing this week when he suggested that former President Donald Trump may not have been hit by a bullet during an assassination attempt two weeks ago.

Wray told the House Judiciary Committee that it was not clear what hit Trump, that there was “some question about whether or not it’s a bullet or shrapnel that hit his ear.”

“As Ranking Member of the United States Senate Committee on the Judiciary, I believe it is very important for you to correct your testimony before Congress on Wednesday when you indicated it is uncertain whether President Donald J. Trump was hit by a bullet, glass, or shrapnel,” Graham wrote in a letter to Wray. “It is clear to everyone that President Trump survived an assassination attempt by millimeters, as the attempted assassin’s bullet ripped the upper part of his ear.”

Graham noted that official government briefings that he has received clearly stated that Trump was hit by a bullet, therefore it “should not be a point of contention.”

“I urge you to immediately correct your statement and acknowledge that President Trump was hit by a bullet rather than glass or shrapnel,” he added. “As head of the FBI, you should not be creating confusion about such matters, as it further undercuts the agency’s credibility with millions of Americans. Please correct this statement immediately.”

Graham’s letter comes as The New York Times conducted a thorough video, audio, and trajectory analysis that found that Trump was hit by a bullet and not any kind of debris.

Forensic experts confirmed that the viral photo that captured a bullet passing by Trump’s head, after it struck his ear, was the first shot that was fired.

“He flinches, and his right hand already starts reaching for his right ear during that time between the first audible shot and the second audible shot,” said Rob Maher, an audio forensics expert at Montana State University.

As Trump pulled his hand away from his ear, blood can be seen on it, indicating that the bullet that missed his head by only fractions of an inch did, in fact, strike Trump’s ear.

Photographs following the shooting that that were taken over the rally site in Pennsylvania showed that the 20-year-old would-be assassin had a clear line of site at the former president and that there was nothing impeding his line of fire.
