McCabe Statement in a more readable form

Still looking for the complete Sessions statement.

This from Vox outlines the broader reaction:

The efforts are part of a broader GOP ploy to paint the Justice Department as hopelessly biased against Trump. The likely aim is to soften the blow of any potential charges against the president or his associates that come out of the Mueller probe.

In that context, McCabe's firing sends a chilling message: Draw the president's ire, especially by investigating him, and you might be publicly humiliated -- and then lose the pension you've spent decades accumulating.

Thanks!!

I need to get out of some of these windows/sites I have open right now.

Vox isn't a credible news source. They'll be out of business soon.

“Draw the president’s ire, especially by investigating him, and you might be publicly humiliated”

A little late for that “chilling message” since they’ve been investigating him since before he was elected.

I don’t agree that this is a ploy by the GOP with the aim of softening blow of potential charges against Trump or associates. At all. Vox is a pinko Trump hating site. And clinging to the DEBUNKED torture thing with the new CIA head lady. Vox sucks majorly.
