    Strange? One would think that such an airtight case would have gone further.

    Hopefully Barr hasn't been subverted by the deep state

    Did some people actually expect McCabe to be charged?

    Everyone that I knew never thought there was even a chance that he would be charged.

    I have a hard time believing that this EXPECTED development would surprise anyone.

    Some people actually thought that he was going to be charged?:roflol:

    Wow.:smh:

    The Justice Department’s inspector general concluded last year Mr. McCabe lied to investigators about a media leak.

    Barr’s another deep state stooge! Trump too since he says he’s allowed to intervene.

    I’m not surprised, the thin blue line often protects itself.

    It’s also likely that McCabe is cooperating, there are bigger fish

    Yup.

    Trump is in McCabe's pocket, and Barr is a Deep State Stooge who needs to fired immediately.

    Keep hope alive! Lol
    When someone cooperates they still get charged normally. Look at Rick Gates, Flynn or Cohen.

    But the truth is, McCabe’s lying was worse than previously imagined and cited for his firing. Speculation about his lack of candor was overwhelmingly confirmed by a long awaited OIG report late last week, which showed McCabe’s behavior was not only dishonest, but that he lied multiple times under oath to OIG investigators and FBI agents. OIG investigators concluded his repeated lying was calculated and beneficial to him, not the bureau or the agents who work inside of it.

    “As detailed in this report, the OIG found that then-Deputy Director Andrew McCabe lacked candor, including under oath, on multiple occasions in connection with describing his role in connection with a disclosure to the [Journal], and that conduct violated FBI Offense Codes 2.5 and 2.6,” the report states. “The OIG also concluded that McCabe’s disclosure of the existence of an ongoing investigation in the manner described in this report violated the FBI’s and the Department’s media policy and constituted misconduct.”

    “McCabe sought to legitimize his actions by falsely claiming that he had told Comey that he authorized the disclosure and that Comey was fine with his decision,” the report continues.

    McCabe was caught lying four times, three of them under oath. OIG issued the full report to the FBI “for such action that it deems to be appropriate.” In other words, referred McCabe for disciplinary action to be determined by the FBI and Department of Justice.

    Well, the only thing we know for sure is that J.P. and Molly will be looking for new jobs by 5pm today...

    I sure hope somebody told Barr THIS action was coming.... he seems to be particularly uninformed these days...

    No kidding.

    McCabe commits the most unfathomable breach of National Security since the Rosenberg Case and Trump's DOJ let's him skate away scot free?

    What is going on at DOJ?

    Thanks alot, Trump!:smh:

    McCabe to testify against James Comey??? I am hearing it, but I don't believe it. Comey skates too.

    Evidently, some lack of candor is more equal than others.

    Which would be why the memo said 'in it's totality'.

    It is unfortunate, and will only reinforce the Deep State perception that there are two sets of justice.

    But he's a Democrat. I remember a Democrat who got caught stealing documents in his pants and got away with it.

    One day allowing this corruption will have an equivalent effect on its protection. :oldman:
