Good work, detective.
Not McCabe then? Excellent!
As I understand it the President recess-appoints when congress not in session. Looks like a good sense of timing if I understand all of this correctly.
Trump is just naming an interim director. This does not go through the appointments process. No recess appointment, just an interim director.
That has nothing to do with this. The search is for the acting head of the FBI in the interim while they search for and seek confirmation of a new permanent director.
The interesting thing is that it is not McCabe, which suggest that he is on a little list of society offenders as well.
Looks like the President is able to appoint an “interim director” without Senate confirmation as long as the appointee is at a certain level of the FBI. If anybody here knows the rules, please enlighten the rest of us. The same thing appeared to happen at DOJ when the female was fired. At least, looks like McCabe is on his way out and is nothing but a place holder.
