You Marxist POS:
McCabe was fired for allegedly lying to federal investigators and for making alleged unauthorized disclosures to the media about sensitive investigations. Basically, he is alleged to have “lacked candor” (translation: lied like a motherfucker) with investigators about making anonymous *** to a Wall Street Journal reporter about the status of the Clinton Foundation investigation in 2016.

In what could only be described as an already prepared statement, McCabe released a letter shortly after his termination that attempted to give his side of the story and asserted that he had been “singled out” by a vindictive President Donald Trump for removal, a laughable claim given the recommendations of the Obama-era-initiated inspector general’s investigation led by the Obama-appointed IG and career bureaucrats at the FBI’s OPR.

But there was something else in McCabe’s statement that caught the eye of law professor Jonathan Turley, who described in The Hill how McCabe appeared to have contradicted his former boss, former FBI Director James Comey, and essentially accused him of committing perjury.

In dispute of the allegations of unauthorized *** to the media, McCabe wrote, “I chose to share with a reporter through my public affairs officer and a legal counselor. As deputy director, I was one of only a few people who had the authority to do that. It was not a secret, it took place over several days, and others, including the director, were aware of the interaction with the reporter.”

Turley pointed out that since Comey was the director at that time, McCabe’s claim that his *** were authorized — or at least done with the knowledge of — his boss would run completely counter to testimony delivered under oath by Comey in May 2017 during a congressional hearing.

McCabe on his knees:
Former Federal Bureau of Investigation Deputy Director Andrew McCabe is meeting with the Justice Department to make the case for why he should be allowed to retire rather than be fired, according to an individual familiar with the meeting.

The threat of firing arose after it came to light McCabe allegedly misled internal investigators looking into looking into an array of matters connected to the 2016 presidential campaign.

McCabe came under fire this week after the FBI's Office of Professional Responsibility recommended he be terminated. The decision followed a year-long inspector general probe into whether McCabe should have done more to shield certain investigations from potential conflicts of interest, an investigation that just recently resulted in a draft report on the former deputy director, ABC News reports.

In the draft report, internal investigators conclude McCabe went too far in trying to push back against media reports questioning whether family ties to Democrats could impact his work, particularly when he authorized FBI officials to speak with a reporter about the agency’s investigation into the Clinton Foundation, according to a source familiar with the findings.

But the draft report takes particular issue with how forthcoming McCabe was when Justice Department officials asked him questions about his actions, according to the source.

Apparently, he also violated the Hatch Act by accepting with his wife 750k donation from McAuliffe, the friend and funder of Hillary Clinton, AT THE SAME TIME HE HAD OVERSIGHT OF AN INVESTIGATION OF HILLARY.

Also, he reportedly made political phone calls to get his Democrat wife election from his work phone, and wore a Democrat t-shirt at a political rally.

He was corrupt, and fired for cause.

Elkindooofus you idiot. Trump has said McCabe never took notes when they met. So if McCabe has memos he made them up after the fact. As he is a proven liar, and he is as that's what cost him his job, I'll go with Trump.

Second, McCabe has testified Comey ordered him to leak to the media. Comey has testified he never ordered anyone to leak.
Somebody is lying.

At this point all those fuckers are lying trying to save their asses.

Third, despite all the media hysteria, Trump didn't fire McCabe.
The FBI fired him for lying to the FBI. That's a felony and puts him in legal jeopardy.

Correct Trump did not fire McCabe.
McCabe was fired by and Obama appointed Insp Gen.
Reason: Mccabe lied under oath about leaking info to the press. He did and it was proven he was leaking to the press.
McCabe did not loose his pension. the part abut him loosing it is fake news..

You need to start at the top of this thread. McCabe claimed that Comey lied to Congress when he claimed he didn't know about McCabe's *** to the media. Now McCabe is saying he misspoke when he said Comey knew...but words have meaning, after someone pointed out his statement meant Comey lied under oath, McCabe wants his statement to go away. TOO LATE!!!

The big question is where is the Special Counsel to investigate these obvious crimes at several levels.
