DOJ won't charge former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe
The Hill ^ | 2/14/2020 | Olivia Beavers

Posted on 02/14/2020 10:12:07 AM PST by bitt

The Department of Justice (DOJ) will no longer pursue criminal charges against former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, closing a high-profile case against the former official whose conduct during the 2016 election came under intense scrutiny.

"We write to inform you that, after careful consideration, the Government has decided not to pursue criminal charges against your client, Andrew G. McCabe, arising from the referral by the Office of the Inspector General (OIG) to our Office of conduct,” wrote two officials from the D.C. U.S. Attorney’s Office. "Based on the totality of the circumstances and all of the information known to the Government at this time, we consider the matter closed."

Lawyers for McCabe — Michael Bromwich and David Schertler — celebrated the news, saying that McCabe and his family "can go on with their lives without this cloud hanging over them.”

DOJ under Barr seems no different than under Sessions.

Time for some to twist themselves into pretzels explaining how this is just part of the plan.

Just like Comey.

Let’s remember that the guy inside the FBI who makes the recommendations regarding whether charges will be filed against FBI folks is an old McCain guy who has consistently recommended no charges for FBI member wrong doings. It is pathetic and as others have said a dual system of justice. Citizens who are not FBI members would be charged for far less that the lawbreaker FBI members.

When Barr started praising Christopher Wray, I knew things were bad.

And Barr is going to side with the Senate in that Biden should be off-limits.

Democrats always get the free pass. Break any law, laugh as you walk away.

Guys in positions like he and Comey held have many levels of deniability and protection. Similar to corporate CEOs who usually skate while underlings take the heat.

To paraphrase someone:

How many times does it have to happen before it’s not a coincidence?

Thanks for #36. I didn’t know Barr was involved. Ruby Ridge & Waco woke me up from the political stupor I was in.
