    Well, there it is, McCabe is gone. Now let’s see if he’s charged with crimes.


    WASHINGTON — Andrew G. McCabe, the former F.B.I. deputy director and a frequent target of President Trump’s scorn, was fired Friday after the Justice Department rejected an appeal that would have let him retire this weekend.

    Totally expected.

    Lost his pension. Oh well.

    That said, and given what Trump has proven himself capable of, at least he was able to escape with his life.

    Watch the left go insane even though the same FBI McCabe worked for recommended it.

    The lesson to be learned is to always get the money upfront in cash when doing shady stuff. And make sure that it's a lot.

    Hilarious! McCabe has probably more left than Michael Flynn, who lost his home due to the cost of defending himself
    against the out of control inquisition of Robert Mueller.

    And it is absolutely hilarious watching MSNBC try to defend this jerk who corrupted his office.

    Time to bring charges against McCabe. He said if he was going down he would take everyone involved with him....Hi Hillary and obama!

    Will McCabe go postal before the end of the year? He fits the profile.

    the key line in the NY Times article that will be completely ignored by liberals

    "F.B.I. disciplinary officials recommended his dismissal."

    If your going to charge Flynn with a crime for lying under oath McCabe has a lot more to worry about then his pension

    He won't be.

    When this is all over, he'll be exhorated too.

    Meanwhile, he will testify to his contemporaneous knowledge of Trump's attempts to pressure James Comey into dropping investigations into Russian meddling.

    Six people were involved in contemporaneous accounts of Trump's behavior. He has gone after every single one of them.

    This is the act of a petty and very small man.

    I will once again post this

    the key line in the NY Times article that will be completely ignored by liberals

    "F.B.I. disciplinary officials recommended his dismissal."

    read that again

    "F.B.I. disciplinary officials recommended his dismissal."

    the decision had nothing to do with Trump but the

    "F.B.I. disciplinary officials recommended his dismissal."

    It is amazing that ignorant people don't understand that the FBI was made an Excepted Service agency to facilitate firing incompetent or disloyal employees. FBI employees do not have the merit protection that Civil Service employees have.

    Another one bites the dust....Dare we hope they'll FINALLY indict Hillary? I doubt it she owns just about everyone in DC and has herself buried pretty deep in the swamp mire.

    TIME TO DRAIN THE SWAMP!

    Yeah this actually came from the rank and file FBI. The ones lower on the chain of command have been disheartened for some time about the corruption of those at the top and have been helping to get rid of them.
