FBI Director Christopher Wray has defrocked and demoted embattled deputy director Andrew McCabe, according to FBI sources.
McCabe, who has been a lightning rod of controversy in the last two years, is no longer running the show at the FBI as far as manning his previous sweeping daily responsibilities.
Under ex-FBI director James Comey, McCabe had unilateral control of the FBI, including counter terrorism. According to sources, that is no longer the case.
McCabes workload has been transferred among other Bureau hierarchy, according to FBI sources.
This internal demotion likely sets the stage for McCabes departure from the FBI, according to sources who say that an investigation by the United States Office of the Inspector General into McCabes dealings with Hillary Clintons campaign have yielded troubling revelations.
McCabe still maintains his title as deputy director, however, he is no longer assuming the responsibilities that go with that title.
Sources said McCabe may currently be negotiating an amicable exit from the FBI.
Wray, the newly-minted FBI director, was appointed by President Donald Trump. Wray decided to effectively demote McCabe and remove him from high-profile cases.
McCabe has come under fire on many fronts in recent months.
FBI sources said Wray no longer had confidence in McCabes ability to serve as second in command of the Bureau.
One federal law enforcement source called the OIG probe into McCabes associations with the Hillary Clinton campaign a train wreck.
One source said McCabe is on borrowed time at the FBI.

If not true, maybe the news will make it true...
Not Fake News... It’s Prophetic News.
“Sources said McCabe may currently be negotiating an amicable exit from the FBI.”
Draining the swamp.
“amicable exit from the FBI”
Hope is is a spill the beans for leniency.
Thank God! It’s about time.
Demotes??? The same day that Judicial Watch, our only honest investigating entity, comes out with proof that McCabe was in on Hillary’s coverup, Wray decides to demote him. McCabe should have been FIRED today.
Never trust a man with a missing upper lip.
If the report is true, it most likely means that the IG has given Wray a "heads up" on the sexual misconduct case against McCabe that's now been under investigation for around two years(!), and that Wray is going to allow McCabe to retire quietly and hang onto his pension, rather than be fired in disgrace.
McCabe's corrupt conflict of interest in "investigating" the Clinton Global Crime Family on several fronts, to the tune of a $700,000 payoff to his wife's campaign will never result in any criminal penalty of any kind. People believing that it will are living in a dream world.
I want to see federal indictments against the former regime criminalcrats...
Ghee that was fast. It almost took forever. Maybe in the next three years will find out some new revelations about the FBI.
I think you are over the target. McCabe has not been demoted. He is still being paid top dollar. meanwhile he is negotiating his immunity deal along with his pension enhancement. there will be no fall out for the wife’s activities. This is all to save Hillary, Obama and Wray’s own ass.
Yeah.

About damn time. What took so long?
:-)
Good, but not good enough.
So many battles, so little time...
Hopefully, but if True Pundit stories were accurate even Hillary and Bill and Huma etc would have all already been locked up last year.
Should take away his red stapler too.
One down.
