The Deep State fighting back with every crooked tool they can find, including the tool that worked for the Clintons and that styles itself as the “journalist” Stephanopoulous.

“One source told ABC News that Sessions was not aware of the investigation when he decided to fire McCabe last Friday less than 48 hours before McCabe”

Just wow.

Why didn’t they investigate Sessions before? Oh, because they made up the whole Russia collusion thing and forgot to do any investigating.

The sewage gets deeper and deeper.

If Sessions did not know....what else is going on he doesn’t know about?

That's like John Gotti being in charge of investigating Rudy Giuliani for being a member of the media. You just can't make this sh*t up.

Sessions’ lawyer Chuck Cooper: “Special Counsel's Office has informed me that after that after interviewing the Attorney General and conducting additional investigation, the Attorney General is not under investigation for false statements or perjury...”

But in an interview with ABC News, McCabe insisted politics was "absolutely not" a factor in any of the decisions he made, noting he has considered himself a Republican all his life.

Guys, what do you think of this? To me, just another unbelievable dissimulation.

“Republican” is just a label.

Obviously, he did not take his oath to uphold the Constitution seriously.

A great many “Republicans” are Progressives.
