Funny, I thought the KGB does it with the tip of a poison umbrella.

Trump = Stalin. Well, it does make for a nice change of pace from Trump = Hitler . . .

Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.

They just put out a hit greenlight on McCabe, blaming Trump for the job.

Yup. Over the target and bombardier bay doors are open.

Squealing like stuck pigs.

Equating the justified loss of a job to a summary execution is a bit of a stretch.

I would like to point out that KGB often could accident or non-robbery attack people ... or just ship them off to never be heard from again.

Arkancide is more in the vein of the KGB handbook.

Donald Trump is literally playing by the Russian playbook on this

Mr. Nance, are you referring to Deputy Director Andrew McCabe getting the boot?

Come on now, he is just a civil servant.

It's not like he was CEO of General Motors for 30 years or something...

The KGB(Kind and Good Boys) would have visited him in his office and made him disappear

Malcolm Nance “literally” does not know WTF he’s talking about. He certainly understands nothing about the USA, our govt and constitution, or about Russia and the history of the KGB, etc.

Malcolm Nance, you are “literally” a moron.

Is it possible to be more moronic than Malcolm Nance?

If true, McCabe would be dead due to “brain hemorrhage” and his family billed for one 9mm round.

“....[Trump’s move] comes out of an older playbook, the KGB’s playbook. . . . Donald Trump is literally playing by the Russian playbook on this...."

First, I'm not sure how this guy would know what the KGB playbook is or says. Is he a communist? Former CIA?

Two, firing an employee for wrong-doing based on the recommendation of the Inspector General of the DOJ, seems fairly normal business practice to me. If this was occurring in the private sector, McCabe would have been fired many moons ago.

Three, Sessions fired McCabe not Trump. He did so following standard government personnel protocol. I'm sure the KGB doesn't have ta Russian bureaucracy to deal with like Trump and Sessions do.

Four, the KGB doesn't fire people. They kill them. The Seth Rich murder is more like something the KGB would carry off.

Five, the KGB playbook probably is what Putin is following in poisoning his political enemies at various times and places.

Terminating employment KGB style is a little more "permanent" than just getting fired and losing your pension.

Not necessarily. He could have gotten a cold as an alternative.
