Andrew McCabe has long been a controversial figure at the FBI. His position as Deputy Director of the FBI came under intense scrutiny during the Clinton email investigation after it came to light that his wife, Jill McCabe, took nearly $500,000 from Virginia Governor Terry McAuliffe to fund her Senate campaign. Of course, Terry McAuliffe is a long-time confidant of the Clinton family and was rumored as a potential running mate for Hillary. But sure, no reason to be wary the McCabe was put in charge of supervising that particular investigation.
But now, at least according to a new report from Circa, McCabe may have other conflicts, including a personal vendetta against former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn, that have not yet been disclosed. According to Circa, Flynn apparently enraged McCabe a few years back after he intervened on behalf of an FBI Special Agent, Robyn Gritz, who had accused McCabe and other top FBI officials of sexual discrimination.
The FBI launched a criminal probe against former Trump National Security Adviser Michael Flynn two years after the retired Army general roiled the bureau’s leadership by intervening on behalf of a decorated counterterrorism agent who accused now-Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe and other top officials of sexual discrimination, according to documents and interviews.

If true the McCabe broke all sorts of laws or so it would appear.
Draining the swamp should end with some people in prison
Trump’s new FBI Director will definitely need a new Deputy Director.
The criminal offenses just keep lining up for this cretin.
I can’t believe this guy has been allowed to stay in the position. I’d send Rudy in there as an acting director to crack the whip until a permanent director is seated.
And he might talk to Comey about Marc Rich.
Why was this traitor left in office ..?
Is the WH this clueless ?
This creep should have been marched out the day Trump took office .
Why ?
Remove this traitor Today !
This does not place the honesty of the FBI in jeopardy. That happened ages ago.

"The Office of U.S. Special Counsel, the government’s main whistleblower agency, is investigating whether FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe’s activities supporting his wife Jill’s Democratic campaign for Virginia state senate in 2015 violated the Hatch Act’s prohibition against FBI agents campaigning in partisan races."Excerpted from Circa's article, "The FBI's boss is under investigation for possible Hatch Act violations"
Another Demonicrat headed to the slammer.
Trump’s new FBI Director will definitely need a new Deputy Director.
You do not leave someone in place who was once in charge of the enterprise.
They are always going to be second guessing you.
McCabe is set up to retire.
He should not be kept on as deputy director.
Need to scroll down a bit...
Zero hedge is a useless source. Why not post the Circa article....or better yet search for it since it has been posted many times
Flynn was unmasked.
Exactly...No one knows what President Trump has planned...He is nobody’s fool...His timing is impeccable...
When the time is right, I think we’ll see just what is going to happen and I think it will be big...VERY BIG....
McCabe.....the dirtbag who told a roomful of startled FBI agents in January...”I hate Trump!”
McCabe needs to GO.
