McCabe sues Justice, FBI for materials related to his firing
CNN Fake News ^ | 12 June 2018 | Laura Jarrett

Former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe is suing the Justice Department, the department's inspector general and the FBI for materials related to his firing.

Attorneys for McCabe filed a federal lawsuit under the Freedom of Information Act on Tuesday for access to a variety of documents, including the Inspector General's Manual and other policy documents used by the Justice Department to justify his termination.

"Defendants have deprived Plaintiff of the opportunity he should have had to protect and to advance the legal rights and interests of Mr. McCabe," David L. Snyder, a lawyer for McCabe, wrote in the lawsuit. McCabe was fired from the FBI in March less than two days shy of his retirement after a tumultuous final months of service.

It absolutely infuriates me that this POS hasn’t been charged and arrested yet. Didn’t the IG recommend this? This one thing alone points to Sessions being a worthless boat anchor. Here is a clear recommendation from the very investigator he ceded power to and NOTHING has happened.

McCabe knows where the bodies are buried, and he's threatened to sing. My read of the situation is that he's the fall guy, sort of like Wilmer in the Maltese Falcon.

McCabe knows he is going to be indicted, and I’m guessing Andy’s lawyer wants to get a head start on his criminal defense before the inevitable charges are filed.

Yes. 2 months ago a criminal referral was made.
McCabe still has not been indicted.

While I deplore the stonewalling that is going on in the Justice department, it would be humorous if they simply stonewalled his document requests.

Great scene.
Gutman smiled benignly at him and said: “Well, Wilmer, I’m sorry indeed to lose you, and I want you to know that I couldn’t be any fonder of you if you were my own son, but—well, by Gad!—if you lose a son it’s possible to get another—and there’s only one Maltese falcon.”
Did Comey give this speech to McCabe?

Yes, why aren't Republicans using this whole FBI abuse in their favor?

Answer. They're all protecting the Deep State.

Democrat or Republican. If the Deep State goes down it's the end of their golden parachute racket.

“McCabe knows he is going to be indicted, and I’m guessing Andy’s lawyer wants to get a head start on his criminal defense before the inevitable charges are filed.”

Someone needs to tell Andy and his lawya that all that material will be provided as part of the discovery process at his criminal trial. He’s just looking for more time to concoct the necessary lies.

#5. McCabe: “I don’t recognize no stinkin Republican President”.

This guy lied to the IG and to Congress so let’s give him the rope to hang himself, high.

POS.

"Article written by Valerie Jarrett’s daughter."

Wonder if she'll do the article on her Mom's High Treason Hanging?

Yep, and the lawyer gets extra billable hours for going before the judge to argue he needs extra billable hours to concoct those lies!

At least this is quickly spending McCabe's "hard-earned" pension in a very karma-induced manner.

Things happen slowly except in Perry Mason flicks.
