The decision to decline charges appears to be a move to distance the Justice Department from President Trump, who has long attacked Mr. McCabe.
Andrew G. McCabe, the former deputy F.B.I. director and a frequent target of President Trump, will not face charges in an investigation into whether he lied to investigators about a media leak, his defense team said on Friday.
The decision by prosecutors in Washington ends a case that had left Mr. McCabe in legal limbo for nearly two years. It also appears to be a sign that Attorney General William P. Barr wants to show that the Justice Department is independent from Mr. Trump: The notification came a day after Mr. Barr publicly challenged the president to stop attacking law enforcement officials on Twitter and said the criticisms were making his job more difficult.

GEE what a surprise!!!!!!!!!!!
THERE IS NO JUSTICE IN AMERICA ANY MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sedition, minimum. Treason possible.
Trump should pardon Stone...Pappadopolis...and Flynn immediately...and commute Maniforts sentence...
Total Bullshit.
Returning to the “Just-us” dept. As if it ever left.
I firmly believe that there is no justice left in the=is country. Daily we are treated to one more instance of “NO JUSTICE” just some legal game played by the government.
Mind reading journalism from The NY Times.
Two tier justice system..always has been always will be
Mark Stein is giving Barr hell and I agree with Mark 100%
There has always been a two, three or more sided justice system. It’s just playing out more before our eyes.
This gets old. No one has been charged for ANYTHING in four years.
No one WILL be charged for anything. At what point do you guys finally admit that DOJ has no “plan” to “trust?”
So much for all the breathless anticipation by someone “in the know” that McCabe, Comey and others were going to be arrested “this week”.
Sigh..
It’s a Big Club, and you ain’t in it.
If anyone believes that Durham will prosecute any Deep State operatives, I dare anyone to contradict me in saying that that will never happen. Go on. I DARE you.
No point when there are much more serious charges for him.
The only justice America will get is when these people die. They will reap their reward then.
Somebody ought to start a petition to change the name to The Department of Injustice.
Boy O Boy did he.
Way to go MARK!!
My Guy!
This “trusty plan” stuff is so nauseating.
*Lerner
*Awans
*Comey
*McCabe
*Priestap
*any one of the zillion leakers or zillion “news” people who got the leaks
Just sickening. And Trump does all he does without one lick of help from the DOJ or the “upstanding” Wray.
There are two justice systems.
Barr comes through again. The US government will not be reformed from within the system. Trump is doing everything he can, but he is caged.
