Demotes Embattled Andrew McCabe; Internal Investigation Dubbed “Train Wreck”
TruPundit ^

Posted on 12/26/2017 9:35:10 AM PST by MNDude

FBI Director Christopher Wray has defrocked and demoted embattled deputy director Andrew McCabe, according to FBI sources.

McCabe, who has been a lightning rod of controversy in the last two years, is no longer running the show at the FBI as far as manning his previous sweeping daily responsibilities.

Under ex-FBI director James Comey, McCabe had unilateral control of the FBI, including counter terrorism. According to sources, that is no longer the case.

McCabe’s workload has been transferred among other Bureau hierarchy, according to FBI sources.

This internal demotion likely sets the stage for McCabe’s departure from the FBI, according to sources who say that an investigation by the United States Office of the Inspector General into McCabe’s dealings with Hillary Clinton’s campaign have yielded troubling revelations.

McCabe, Comey, the Clintons and 0bama as well as Brennon, Crapper and several others should be spending the rest of their lives in prison.

The entire upper management at the doj has spent years engaging in political trickery servicing the body politic instead of doing their jobs. They need to be prosecuted under the Hatch Act, which they are in clear violation of.

He should be fire or put on leave, assigned to a desk with no authority, hopefully moved from his office to a cubical in a high traffic hallway next to the restrooms.

You got that right! I'd add Lynch, Lerner and Holder and I may even add Rosenstein in that mix. Not how much I trust that guy.

McCabe had unilateral control of the FBI, including counter terrorism.

Based on how the Tsarnaev brothers were handled, we can probably assume his "counter terrorism" efforts were mostly spying on Tea Party people.

The $64,000 question is who gave the ok to use the bogus Dossier as the basis to wiretap the Trump campaign.

The reference to problems for McCabe in the IG report is a big tell.
He’s not going to make it to 90 days and skate. President mocked it.

They all know.

McCabe ran the Las Vegas mass shooting investigation. That needs a hard second look by someone else that’s for sure.

Since there is no stomach to fire anyone, I hope Wray puts McCabe in a basement workspace next to a noisy sump pump with no phone, no computer, no staff, no contact with anyone, out of sight until his March retirement kicks in. He will get a lifetime pension for aiding in a coup attempt. What a country!

“Put McCabe in an orange jumpsuit.”

Then out the clamshell in back of C130 sans parachute. Hence a jumpsuit.

“This title tells that Wray did the demoting!“

Wray got a lot of Rat votes to confirm, almost all of em. A very bad sign, l don’t trust him. The way things are any nominee who gets more than 2 or 3 Rat votes is suspect.
