Yeah, I agree with your upgrade. Loss of pension is chump change considering what McCabe was up to.

let me see, he gets a 30 day letter. Humm, just happens to be within 30 days for retirement. So, he gets the letter and says, I think I will submit my papers, 29 days from today. Out the door he goes, clean record.

The MSM is going to throw McCabe under the bus before DOJ starts investigating CBS

More evidence that the MSM is the DEEP STATE.

McCabe’s wife is a very successful MD. I’m sure they have several expensive cars. New Porsches start at under $60k.

Someone needs to press James Comey on this. He needs to answer WHY his trusted number 2 has been recommended to be fired. What did Comey know and when did he know about the things McCabe is to be fired for!

CNBC: FBI release on Clinton email probe refers to 'Shadow Government'

Mon, Oct, 17 2016

One revelation in the documents came from an interview with an unidentified person who suggested that Freedom of Information Act requests related to Clinton went through a group sometimes called "the Shadow Government."

"There was a powerful group of very high-ranking state officials that some referred to as 'The 7th Floor Group' or 'The Shadow Government.' This group met every Wednesday afternoon to discuss the FOIA process, Congressional records, and everything CLINTON-related to FOIA/Congressional inquiries," the FBI's interview summary said.

LA TIMES: FBI's new second-in-command makes decisions, not headlines (Andrew McCabe - 7th Floor FBI ‘Shadow Government’)

May 05, 2016

From his perch on the 7th floor of FBI headquarters, Andrew McCabe is one of the most powerful figures in U.S. law enforcement, but most Americans would be hard-pressed to pick him out of a lineup.

Not good enough and the wrong action.

The deep state gets to bury the issue of McCabe in his being fired, instead of a special prosecutor who could go after all who conspired with McCabe in his malfeasance. I bet some would turn out to be some still at the FBI & now recommending McCabe be fired - lest bigger investigative pursuits rope them in also.

Losing his pension should be the least of McCabe’s worries. The man needs to go to jail

That is NOT enough, Jeff Sessions. It is the baby step to the beginning of Justice. McCabe is not even the tip of the iceberg and prosecution of this scum bucket should be accompanied be at least a couple of dozen others with several above, below and beside the traitor, just within the intelligence community. There are a couple of dozen other traitors in other departments, etc, that will be prosecuted if there’s going to be justice.

This all makes me so mad.

“Attorney General Jeff Sessions is reviewing the recommendation.”

Really? Isn’t it time for his afternoon nap?

The FBI wants McCabe gone before he spills the magic negoro’s Alinsky beans on the FBI/DOJ plan to trap President Trump with a false impeachment charge ( the insurance policy)

You can bet that the negotiations are ongoing between Sessions and McCabe. If he sings to Sessions, he will not be fired but will retire with pension intact and will likely be a future witness with a negotiated immunity. The FBI wants to stop the McCabe flip.They can do that by having McCabe fired and have him prosecuted by the nearest Obama DOJ holdover, likely Rosenstein.

If he gives McCabe a break, there needs to be consequences.

If he elects not to fire McCabe, then Trump has every right to fire Sessions. Giving McCabe a pass is tantamount to giving the thumbs-up to the wanton corruption in D.C.

Naw. Those life time federal employees always get those pensions. Those things are written in stone. The one thing, while I was on active duty in the Army, that was the hardest thing to do was fire a federal employee.

As I remember it, if you have a federal employee (FE) that is not performing, you have to counsel said FE in person, in writing. Then they get like 3 months to get their act together and you have to counsel them again. Every time it has to be in person, in writing, and you must tell them HOW to improve. Then they get another 3 months to do better. Then same procedures again. Then, IF by some chance YOU leave your position, YOU cannot simply hand over the paperwork to your replacement. Everything goes away. The replacement has to endure that person, and then if they have seen the same screw-ups you did, the replacement has to start the procedure all over again. We had a lady at our office that I learned went through this procedure three or four times over the years. The departure of her supervisor each time got her off the hook. When I left, I guess she dodged the bullet again. She probably retired, with that pension we spoke of earlier.
