WASHINGTON Andrew McCabe, the former FBI deputy director and a frequent target of President Donald Trumps scorn, was fired Friday after the Justice Department rejected an appeal that would have let him retire this weekend.
McCabe promptly declared that his firing, and Trumps persistent needling, were intended to undermine the special counsels investigation in which he is a potential witness.
It’s all in the..........................Timing.
Quite the contrary Mr McCabe. You are now living proof that malfeasance can be punished. This may give pause to others and reinforce the idea that we are a nation of laws.
Okay. Works for me.
When did this happen? I went to bed around 11pm and knew nothing about this. Good news.
Someone finally got fired in Washington, DC. I haven’t seen that since Watergate.
Amen
I got the FOX news breaking on my phone around 10, I think.
Ok. And yet I was here and didn’t see it posted. No matter. Good news all around.
He’s crying like a little girl.
A bubble appears from the stopped up Swamp drain. Keep on plunging and maybe the pressure breaks up the blockage.
“... prepared statements for a few thousand of its flying monkeys.”
Yes, McCabe’s response not only so quickly to get out there , but also seems like someone else wrote it ... pre-written propaganda from the DNC or its MSM wing calling thmselves journaists... carefully crafted to try to gain control of and spin the news story-line. McCabe is “the victim”, the “noble agency”, Trump is evil madman behind it all.
The little bas**** was blackmailing us....daring us to fire him.
If he had just stepped down at the time he said he was stepping down.....none of this would be in the press. Poor McCabe.
Let's see what happens with Comey....since it was McCabe that Comey dumped on with the Trump conversations at the Whitehouse. I think they call it....partners in crime. Would be cool to find that it was McCabe that told Comey to give the info to his friend, the professor.
And a leaking pattern begins to emerge.
Wonder if Comey will withdraw his book??

Can I steal the above?
I think the "candor" comment was deliberate....an analogy to the Hillary "careless" call.
McCabe publicly violated the Hatch Act when he campaigned for his wife, during her failed attempt to win a seat in the Virginia legislature. She was given about $700,000 by a pro-Clinton PAC, but failed to disclose that fact when he was appointed to investigate the Clinton email scandal, although he did recuse himself later. He should have been fired a long time ago. It is good that he wasn’t because a lot of his other misdeeds probably wouldn’t have come to light.
You don’t have to steal...copying is a great form of flattery (LOL)...of course, of course, use to your heart’s content!
Now he will have to buy his own Obamacare and get a job.
There's a whole lot more that need to be fired. I personally will not be satisfied if the firings stop at McCabe.
Remember....every paper in the country had a picture of Hillary ready.
The Swamp is trying to avoid charging McCabe with “Lying” to the FBI. Animal Farm speech..
