And...Huber is up in the bullpen !
Isn’t that truth. About 20 years ago, the military started calling soldiers “war fighters.” WTF was wrong with “soldier”?
Same here. We all say “liar.” It’s a plain old solid descriptive word the we all use. Government weasel-speak. They are protecting their own.
We can hope.
But, recent history is not on our side.
Unless and until McCabe is in handcuffs, going to prison, along with Comey, Holder, Lynch, Killery, Rice, Abedin, Mueller, Strozk, Page, ValJar, and Zero...it’s all just more kabuki theater.
May God same this grand experiment.
“Is there a law against lacking candor?”
Yes, the other name is, “Lying to the FBI AND Congress!” ;-)
Time for the surrender monkeys to come out saying nothing will happen to McCabe. This McCabe situation is a heads we win tails Democrats lose. If McCabe is indicted even if not tried by November - conservatives get good ammunition. If nothing actually happens to McCabe this will rouse the troops to still more enthusiasm for November.
“Is there a law against lacking candor?”
For FBI agents, “lacking candor” means lying and/or withholding pertinent information and is a direct firing offense that’s in the same category of insubordination.
But, the bigger questionwhen was McCabe under oath?
now every FBI agent and employee has validation that the rules that they were required to live by also apply to the top brass, and that should open the floodgates for more to report wrongdoing. You’ve got to imagine that the atmosphere within the FBI that was set by these clowns was poisonous.
How many phases of IG Report will there be ?
Hopefully.... A LOT
Looks like the only penalty for McCabe is dismissal. It’s not even a misdomeaner.
Lack of Candor Under Oath, Offense Code 2.6:
“Why can’t anyone in DC say the word? “
They use the word LIED when ‘associates’ of Trump are charged. Manafort, papadopolous, etc
This is a friday night ‘news’ dump stating the obvious.
‘The IG is where the truth and investigations go to die’—Chris Farrell.
IOW, this has always been a cover-up. They will limit the damage to a few underlings. Damage like ‘lack of candor’. It’s a sad joke.
If they use the word lied, that would be using excessive candor.
Nailed it.
“Complete garbage, this is part of the cover-up...And all the ig can come up with is lack of candor?”
Yup.
So he was “careless”? These things happen.
“Lack of candor”?
That’s the BEST they could do? WTF!!!!
It’s a pretty weak-sauce charge. It’s a click below falsification, which has a higher burden of proof.

Very disappointed.
“Mistakes were made.”
Before you have charges you’ve got to have evidence...unless your name is Trump or any other Republican who won’t play ball with The Swamp.
