I am guessing he is playing a part to expose the corruption, and they will let him go.
I am no George Smiley but... something is afoot.
My question is why did McCabe spill it?
Book sales, and cover within his own cabal...
He is trying to create the impression that he was protecting “ potential illegality/outside interference” even though he knew it was a fake.
Carefully scripted weasel words to make him sound like he’s innocent..
MSM will follow his lead
That said I hope I am wrong and your guess is correct.
About time we had a “ John Dean” payback moment for the whole Nixon affair...
