In what can only be seen as a dubious political stunt, Andrew McCabe, through his attorney Michael Bromwich, is suing the DOJ and Inspector General for documents relating to his firing. Apparently the 39-page IG report, documenting the reasoning, along with the Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR) isn’t enough for McCabe.

“In the 36-page complaint filed in federal court in Washington, D.C. Tuesday, his attorneys argue the Justice Department is refusing to hand over documents relating to the policies and procedures for Mr. McCabe’s dismissal...”

Sucks to be on the RECEIVING END of DOJ stonewalling, doesn’t it, Andrew?

Yeah, McCabe is a wild and crazy guy. What a character; always cutting up and joking around. He’s a real peach of a guy.

Mr. McCabe’s attorneys say the withholding of the documents is harming their client, who wants “to vindicate [his] rights and restore his good name.”..“Defendants have been required for over 50 years to proactively disclose the kinds of documents at issue here, and there is no just reason for either their failure to do so now or for any further delay,” the complaint reads.

Washington-based attorney Mark Zaid said delays in FOIA requests are not rare.“McCabe absolutely has a legal right to any non-exempt documents but delays are common and expected, as FOIA requests are processed first-in, first out and there are ‘many, many’ requests ahead of his. The notion of accusing an agency of stonewalling after a few months is just not realistic,” Mr. Zaid said.

A 36 page Redacted document except for his name should be issued immediately

Leftists are like viruses to the United States. They just look to kill the host in any way they can.

Leftists are horrible people.

The beady eyed McCabe is always sweating all over his face. Have you ever noticed?

I hope he sweats in prison.

Rosenstein threatened to subpoena the telephone, texts and emails of the committee’s investigating the DOJ and FBI is they push too hard on their documents requests.
McCabe is going to use this same approach to fight being charges with crimes he committed in abusing his office.

I believe lying to the FBI is covered more by US penal code than departmental policy, but good luck with that Andy. Discovery will be a hoot.

McCabe knows whats in the documents. He’s betting the documents will never be released unredacted, which gives him a legal angle to wriggle loose.

Troubling in more than one way, isn’t it?
