McCabe has spent the past year popping up in the news for all the wrong reasons. In February 2016 he was promoted to deputy director and assumed oversight of the Hillary Emailgate investigation after his wife had received nearly $700,000 from Democratic groups for a failed run for Virginia state senate. This past February he got caught talking to then-chief of staff Reince Priebus about an allegedly bogus Russiagate story in the NYT, a no-no since DOJ investigations are supposed to be independent of politics. His latest news cameo was (apparently) in the infamous text in August 2016 from FBI agent Peter Strzok to Lisa Page: I want to believe the path you threw out for consideration in Andys office that theres no way he [i.e. Trump] gets elected but Im afraid we cant take that risk. Its like an insurance policy in the unlikely event you die before youre 40. Whos Andy? Almost certainly its Andrew McCabe.
What was the insurance policy against Trumps presidency that was discussed in McCabes office? McCabe is scheduled to testify about it before the House Intelligence Committee on Tuesday.
Huh. Do Gowdy and the source know something? If only one of them had mentioned McCabe departing, Id have assumed he was merely saying what he think *should* happen McCabe *should* be fired or resign, now that hes been tainted by suspicions that the Russiagate team has a vendetta against Trump. The fact that there are two GOPers whispering about it, though, makes me think Republicans on the committee have reason to believe something *will* happen. Seems hard to believe POTUS would drop the axe on McCabe, the Strzok text notwithstanding, after all the grief hes gotten from firing Comey and with Mueller looking at evidence of obstruction of justice.

Yeah, that part is easy. "You're fired." What they should be negotiating a surrender into custody post indictment.
Why the hell is McCabe still there?
Should be exiting the FBI and entering a federal prison...
Oh please, will he resign? Will he retire? Will he move to some other 6 figure position within the federal leviathan, or just retire with his 6 figures pension?
I’m sick to the gut of the rot inside our government. These criminals need to be doing HARD time in a federal penitentiary.
Trump’s gonna need a third term to get this nest of vipers cleaned out.

I have absolutely no faith in Gowdy or any Congressional “investigation or hearing” after Lois Lerner & the IRS fiasco. Lois Lerner (and others) are all laughing their azzes off at Gowdy while they still have the jobs and pensions.
Not only, Lois, but the countrys unwashed masses are laughing.
He and his endless hearings/investigations are a NOTHING BURGER...NOTHING. He has not had one of these crooks, not single one, ever go to jail, not one. Its all theatre and show for the unwashed. The UniParty protects the UniParty. They’re all part of the problem up there, and definitely not the solution.
This “nay-saying” is really growing old, old, old from you whiners. Perhaps there should be no questioning or congressional investigation. That would make you happy.
When Hannity has a great show with news breakthroughs, the whiners come out and b!tch that he talks too much. They always have NOTHING to contribute, just their belly-aching and name-calling. Nothing. Zero! But they b!tch and moan and call names and think this contributes to the forum.
“..Perhaps there should be no questioning or congressional investigation....”
The proof is in the pudding....so far, their track record ain’t too good.
Now, this DOJ IG investigation, that’s outside of Congress, may get somewhere. 450 agents have been working on this since January. This one may make some pretty good pudding....we shall see.
Too late. The damage is done.
“Now, this DOJ IG investigation, thats outside of Congress, may get somewhere. 450 agents have been working on this since January. “
I doubt it...probably more like 10.
And Rot Rosenstein too.
Wake me when McCabe walks up the steps of the gallows.
Why would a liberal criminal with no shame at all resign from law enforcement just for being caught committing a few crimes? I don’t see it.
I judge performance based upon results acheived. If Hannity talking could put some swamp critters in prison I would be his biggest supporter.
Thanks to Travis Mcgee for the above!
How is this not treason?
