Is McCabe saying he officially started the probe AFTER Comeys firing (a firing, once again folks, that was recommended by Rod Rosenstein and Jeff Sessions)?
Because theres a ton of evidence, starting with Perkins-Coie, Hillarys 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 Electionnot 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 Posts 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.

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.”

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.

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.
