Andrew McCabe Was Under Investigation Before Donald Trump Became President
The Gateway Pundit ^ | arch 19, 2018 | Joshua Caplan

Posted on 03/19/2018 1:11:28 PM PDT by detective

On Sunday, The Federalist‘s senior editor Mollie Hemingway reminded mainstream media reporters, claiming that FBI Deputy Andrew McCabe’s firing was vindictive, that he was under investigation before Donald Trump became President.

Is he the one who ordered agents to change 302s?

Re: McCabe was under investigation before Donald Trump became President.

And it took TWO FREAKING YEARS for the Obama-appointed Inspector General to decide that McCabe should be fired.

What the F!!! is wrong with Republicans for allowing this kind of stuff to happen?

And I blame Trump, not Sessions.

Trump could have fired every political appointee in the Executive Branch on his first day in office.

Instead, Trump has left hundreds of Obama appointees in office, Trump actually hired four of Obama’s generals to work in the West Wing and Department of Defense, Trump appointed Obama-loyalist Rod Rosenstein as Deputy AG, and Trump allowed Rosenstein to appoint Robert Mueller - Obama’s FBI Director - to investigate Trump!

There is no rational explanation for this kind of political incompetence.

Ahhhhh yes....poor little Andrew.....

“Newly minted and controversial FBI Director Andrew McCabe is already ruffling feathers of his FBI underlings and D.C. bosses in the White House by tooling around FBI headquarters and the nation’s capital in a six-figure Porsche 911 worth more than his annual salary.

And the White House is not happy about revelations that the new FBI Director, sworn to replace the former FBI Director to help clean up the embattled Bureau, is showing up to work like a Hollywood spy instead of a FBI agent, a high-placed aide said hours after McCabe was sworn in Tuesday.”

Just curious.

"Trump could have fired every political appointee in the Executive Branch on his first day in office."

Yes he could, but McCabe wasn't a political appointee. He was career FBI...started in 1996. It was Comey who appointed him Deputy Director.

Whattaya wanna bet he paid cash for the 911 out of the $700 LARGE that Terry McAwful gave Andy’s wife, passed along from the Clintons for fudging the email non-investigation of Hillary?

Just think about this. Both Comey and his butt-plug, McCabe have a personal net worth of $11 Million dollars. Since McCabe made and annual salary of approx. $130K and worked for the FBI for 21 years, he was a real financial wizard, wasn’t he? Not quite sure how Comey came up with his $11 Mil., but it would be interesting to find that out.

Andy was holding a straight flush and Donald Royal Flushed him. It’s been a bad beat cry fest ever since.

Re: And I blame Trump.....For pretty much everything, it appears.....

No. Only two things.

Abject failure to clean out The Swamp, which he promised to do.

Failure to reduce legal immigration, failure to reduce OPT and H-1B Visas, and offering Amnesty and a path to citizenship for 1.8 million illegal aliens.

If Conservatives don’t hold Trump’s feet to the political fire, who will?

I know. Never claimed he was.

Trump could have ordered Sessions to release all the investigation documents on McCabe, and ordered Sessions to fire McCabe.

Comey, by the way, was another Obama holdover Trump failed to fire.

Do you know if McCabe’s net worth includes his wife’s salary as a doctor? I’ve read he owns at least 4 luxury vehicles, 2 houses (one left to him by his mother), has security investments. One site says his Bank of America account earns him approximately $50,000 a year. It also said that his salary has increased approximately 127% over the past few years. Probably includes payoffs from the Clintons. Both of their financial portfolios have the smell of Hillary’s cattle futures...turning a $1,000 investment into $100,000. There definitely needs to be a second Independent Counsel to investigate these scumbags.

Of course not.

Why?

It helps to have a point of reference against which to measure expectations regarding how long something should or shouldn’t take.

The only thing MaCabe was holding was his own ****. He would have known he was in deep dodo shortly after his investigation began.

At that point he decided to put in place a plan to burn down the house. He will not go down alone.
