Federal prosecutors have declined to charge former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, closing an investigation into whether he lied to federal officials about his involvement in a news media disclosure, McCabe’s legal team said Friday.
The decision resolves a criminal investigation that spanned more than a year and began with a referral from the Justice Department’s inspector general, which said McCabe repeatedly lied about having authorized a subordinate to share information with a newspaper reporter for a 2016 article about an FBI investigation into the Clinton Foundation.
McCabe’s lawyers said in a statement they were told in a phone call and letter that the case is closed and “no charges will be brought against him based on the facts.”
McCabe, a frequent target of attacks from President Donald Trump, has denied that he intentionally misled anyone. He has said his 2018 firing — for what the Justice Department called “lack of candor” — was politically motivated. He sued the Justice Department in August, saying officials had used the inspector general’s conclusions as a pretext to rid the FBI of leaders Trump perceived as biased against him.
In a letter on Friday, prosecutors told McCabe’s lawyers that they decided “not to pursue criminal charges against your client” after careful consideration.
“Based on the totality of the circumstances and all of the information known to the government at this time, we consider the matter closed,” said the letter, signed by the chief of the U.S. attorney’s office’s public corruption unit.
The decision was revealed at the week of startling tensions between Trump and the Justice Department over the treatment of one of the Republican president’s longtime allies and confidants, Roger Stone.

So what, they impeach him again, nobody cares.
McConnell will have to give him a replacement, or Trump can appoint someone Temporarily, maybe that Rob O’Brien guy at the NSC who is cleaning that dump up.
The Swamp critters win again.
I watched a video today of some Canadian citizens who were fed up that the police were allowing a bunch of wackos to set up dangerous blockades on a highway, so they removed the barriers themselves. The cops were standing right there.
This was supposedly about a pipeline on Native-American land, but the companies had already paid them off and had legal rights for the pipeline, but the groups were shaking them down even further.
So they put the public in danger with these make-shift barriers that could have caused accidents and loss of life.
And what did the cop do?
He arrested the citizens who were taking down the illegal barriers on the highway.
See the video here, the one halfway down the page:

Same rationale in D.C. The criminals go free, the innocent are persecuted.
Correct.
There is no "secret deal" with McCabe.
I think he should fire Barr.
Tonight.
Yeah, yeah - I know. The Senate won’t replace him, the Democrats will Impeach him all over again if does, blah, blah, blah.
But this B.S. has stop.
The Deep State coupists and their GOP enablers in the Senate have run the big coup issues up so close to the election so that POTUS is hamstrung. He can’t afford an intra GOP food fight in campaign season. Firing Barr right now would be a nuclear bomb on the beltway. So POTUS is stuck trying to defend his outflanked position beyond enemy lines until the election.
No one here seems to remember Mitch declaring they must marginalize those TeaParty guys before they get here. Hope springs eternal in the Lucy Crowd.
He’s probably going to testify in something bigger coming down the pike....let it ride, let it ride!
Yeah that’s it, he will get them later for sure, no really, he will.
The old ‘No Reasonable Prosecutor Would Bring Such a Case’ standard.......

Yep. And those sunshine pumpers won’t remember the Deep State crimes once Trump is gone. They’ll go right back to voting for those GOPers that enabled the coup from the start.
Thanks. We’ll see now it goes...
Yes, if you don’t control crime, then you will control those who refuse to accept crime.
Someone should file a massive law suite against those officers and their department.
This is what’s known as “grasping desperately at straws”.
Face it. You’ve been conned.
That or you’re one of the cons.
But you’re not nearly smart enough for that, so.....

America has become a Potemkin village; all the trappings of a functioning government are in place, but they are hopelessly corrupt and rotten to the core. Maybe Durham is the last honest man but even Vegas wouldn't set odds :)
Impeach them.
But I'm smarter than you so that must put you at retard level.
He can make a temporary appointment...
“But I’m smarter than you...”
You’re a shining example of the Dunning Kruger Effect.

Holy crap I have had it! These bastards get off one by one! Nothing is going to change in this damned country until people are scared of their life to undermine our president.
