Furious Trump calls McCabe a ‘disgrace to the FBI and disgrace to our country’..

Furious Trump calls McCabe a ‘disgrace to the FBI and disgrace to our country’ and claims he gave ‘Hillary a pass’ in return for his wife getting campaign cash

Andrew McCabe, the former deputy director of the FBI, recounted a Justice Department plot to remove Donald Trump from office in a television interview

In the next episode of '60 Minutes,' Scott Pelley, a correspondent for CBS, says McCabe will talk about a plot to remove Trump from office

Pelley says McCabe told him about a plot to approach Mike Pence, the Vice President of the United States, and ask him to invoke the 25th Amendment

McCabe is out with a new book, 'The Threat,' that takes aims at Trump

Trump fired McCabe and former boss James Comey, calling them 'crooked' cops

Trump's complaint about McCabe's wife Jill stems from her failed 2015 run for a state senate seat in Virginia.

A statewide political action committee called Common Good VA contributed $467,000 to her campaign. Hillary Clinton headlined a fundraiser for the group shortly beforehand, raising $500,000 for it.

The PAC was run at the time by Terry McAuliffe, then the governor of Virginia. McAuliffe is a longtime Bill Clinton fundraiser and former Democratic National Committee chairman.

Jill McCabe's campaign also received more than $207,000 from the Democratic Party of Virginia, over which McAuliffe exerted significant control.

Common Good VA was the largest single donor to the McCabe campaign.

Trump's all-caps tweet came after McCabe recounted a Justice Department plot to remove Donald Trump from office in a television interview that will air Sunday

I’d prefer lobbing artillery rounds into DC. We need 100 swamp angels.

So true. Not one of his credible employees have come forward with a story about what a rat he was to the little guys.

Trump needs to take affirmative action against this incredible amount of corruption or at some point then he becomes part of the problem.

The man truly is a Superstar.
He came at the right time, America would not have survived another term of the Clinton Obama islamo-marxist grime syndicate.

I pray he can unwind the damage of the obamites and destroy the deep state as well before they try to show their wrath.

Sessions is/was a high treason co-conspirator. His pick of rotten rod as his DAG, his recusal, and the subsequent appointment of the mueller coup did not happen by chance. It was orchestrated well in advance.

McCabe came out himself because the avalanche of this stuff is about to hit formally, and there will be a bunch of documents to back all this up.

McCabe is trying to get out in front of it, and CBS is giving him a platform to do it. CBS is likely complicit.

The irony is McCabe accusing Trump of obstructio of Justice when committing a textbook case

“as much as I hate to admit it, I think we just have to face the fact the DJT simply doesn’t have control/command over certain departments of the government”

I came to that conclusion early on. Seeing that 95% of the fed govt apparatchiks voted for hillary rotten clinton and hate PDJT’s guts. They’ve all been in #resist and #sabotage mode.

Seditious conspiracy (18 U.S.C. § 2384) is a crime under United States law. It is stated as follows:

If two or more persons in any State or Territory, or in any place subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, conspire to overthrow, put down, or to destroy by force the Government of the United States, or to levy war against them, or to oppose by force the authority thereof, or by force to prevent, hinder, or delay the execution of any law of the United States, or by force to seize, take, or possess any property of the United States contrary to the authority thereof, they shall each be fined or imprisoned not more than 20 years, or both.

What was McCabes position beside silence on the Obama regime when Obama engaged in stimulating racial division using the Bully Pulpit defending those engaged in criminal activity. Encouraging resistance to arrest which resulted from attempts to take a LEO’s gun. Wound up in a series of LEO murders and riots and assaults on innocent persons deaths killed by black gangs after the Zimmerman and the Ferguson Missouri trials?.

That was more a half-assed home made mortar than a bazooka.

But hey, it IS the NY Slimes, so accuracy means nothing. Just as with the Kitty Genovese case.

The Sessions fiasco has to have hurt President Trump on a personal level. Sessions was one of his earliest congressional supporters, and the President repaid that support with the most critical position in his Administration. I think the President sincerely believed that Sessions would lead the charge against the swamp, but mere days later Sessions had stabbed the President in the back and handed the DOJ/FBI to a gang of hateful traitors. Sessions may have very well been held hostage by dirt that was in possession of the Deep State, but he chose to put his own personal interests ahead of those of the Nation he had sworn to defend. Sedition is still sedition, even if done solely for self-preservation.

At the very least, he and anybody he conspired with should be charged with treason. The man has no shame, then again... He’s a Democrat.

They can’t be shamed, just ask Bill and Hillary Clinton and the shameless Democrats and media who wholeheartedly supported them and their perverted Presidency.

So a bunch of damned unelected corrupt desk bound federal bureaucrats decided they were going to remove the president elected by 63 million of us? Where do they get the authority or the ability to do this; do they consider themselves to be the ancient Mandarins of China or what they really are, a bunch of overpaid dullards, unaccomplished in the private sector, reliant on bootlicking and taxpayer funds, determining just who is qualified to lead us?? It ain’t McCabe and his bunch, believe me. Try them all for sedition.

Is McCabe saying he officially started the probe AFTER Comey’s firing (a firing, once again folks, that was recommended by Rod Rosenstein and Jeff Sessions)?

Because there’s a ton of evidence, starting with Perkins-Coie, Hillary’s cutout, to pay Fusion GPS and specifically, Christopher Steele, to create the bogus Dossier on Donald Trump. This was used by McCabe and the FBI to get a FISA warrant on the Trump Campaign, BEFORE the Election—not when Comey was fired.

From CBS News itself:

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/report-fusion-gps-paid-steele-168000-to-work-on-trump-dossier/

The article leaves OUT when the Fusion GPS/FBI relationship STARTED, and we now know that Bruce Ohr testified in started in 2015!!!, but here the linked article on the date:

******The DNC and Clinton campaign-funded research (re: the Dossier) continued through the end of October 2016, according to the Post’s report.******

All I can conclude is that Ol’ Andy is a pretty bold liar.

We need to counter this lie quickly, by showing the dates that all this started long before Andy says it was.

McCabe Crushes ‘Trump Interference’ Narrative: “There Has Been No Effort To Impede Our Investigation”

As predicted, members of the Senate Intelligence Committee came out swinging early today with several questions for acting FBI Director McCabe on whether the Trump administration was actively seeking to impede an investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election. Unfortunately, McCabe’s answers will undoubtedly be somewhat disappointing for Democrats and CNN.

In an early exchange with Senator Marco Rubio, McCabe offered a very succinct answer on alleged White House interference with ongoing FBI investigations:

Rubio: “Has the dismissal of Mr. Comey in any way impeded, interrupted, stopped, or negatively impacted any of the work, any of the investigations or any ongoing projects at the Federal Bureau of Investigation?”

McCabe: “There has been no effort to impede our investigation to date.”

“You cannot stop the men and women of the FBI from doing the right thing,” McCabe says on if Comey’s firing disrupted ongoing investigations pic.twitter.com/PMivNMlmkd
— CBS News (@CBSNews) May 11, 2017

Moreover, McCabe went on to confirm that no agents have been removed from the Russia probe and that no one from the White House had contacted him about the ongoing investigation.

*MCCABE SAYS HE’D REFRAIN FROM UPDATING WHITE HOUSE ON PROBE

*MCCABE: ALL AGENTS IN RUSSIA PROBE STILL IN THEIR POSITION

*MCCABE SAYS NO ONE IN WHITE HOUSE HAS SPOKEN TO HIM ABOUT PROBE

Asked whether an independent investigator was necessary, McCabe once again had a very succinct answer: “No, sir.”

Senator Lankford: “Is it your impression at this point that the FBI is unable to complete the investigation in a fair and expeditious way because of the removal of Jim Comey?”

McCabe: “Is is my opinion and belief that the FBI will continue to pursue this investigation vigorously and completely.”

Senator Lankford: “Do you need someone to take this away from you and somebody else to do it?”

McCabe: “No, sir.”

Meanwhile, going one step further, McCabe also destroyed another New York Times narrative. Just yesterday we posted about a NYT story which implied that Comey was fired as a direct result of his request for a “significant increase” in funding for his ‘Russia probe’. That said, McCabe quickly dismantled that narrative by noting that the FBI doesn’t even make funding requests for individual investigations but that the Russia investigation was nevertheless “adequately resourced.”

Senator: “Can you confirm that that request [funding request for Russia probe] was, in fact, made?”

McCabe: “I can not confirm that request was made.

As you know, when we need resources, we make those requests here. So, I’m not aware of that request and it’s not consistent with my understanding of how we request additional resources.

That said, we don’t typically request resources for an individual case. And, as I mentioned, I strongly believe that the Russia investigation is adequately resourced.”

Of course, we’re under no illusion that any of this testimony will make one bit of difference in the minds of Chuck Schumer or CNN as the Russians have clearly gotten to McCabe.
