Former CIA Chief Brennan attacks Trump over McCabe firing

Former CIA Director John Brennan slammed President Trump on Saturday for firing Andrew McCabe days before being eligible for a lifetime pension, suggesting the president is a “demagogue” headed for the “dustbin of history.”

McCabe, a former acting FBI director, was fired Friday night after multiple federal probes and reports showed that he lied to investigators reviewing the bureau’s probe into whether Hillary Clinton sent and received classified information on private email servers while secretary of state.

He was fired days before he would have been eligible for a lifetime pension.

Attorney General Jeff Sessions said he officially fired McCabe after receiving a report from the Inspector General, the findings from the FBI Office of Professional Responsibility and the recommendation of the Justice Department’s senior career official. He said the firing was based on Justice Department procedure.

Brennan may be feeling the noose tightening and wants to support McCabe to keep him in the cabal. There have been some reports that McCabe isn’t willing to take a criminal prosecution and would take others down to protect himself in a plea deal.

Trump didn’t fire him.

...
We know that. Brennan knows that. But that is the Coup Plotters’ talking point.

Brennan has already threatened Sessions’life.(”It’s dangerous to please the president”) Trumps people had all better watch their backs. just think of all the muslims embedded in the obama/clinton cabal. They are not going silently into that dark night.President Trump is surrounded by swamp monsters in D.C. obama had the Capitol seeded with muslims and the clintons bought the communists. They will be there for a long time.

Brennan, Clapper, Comey and McCabe seem to think a small cadre of ‘elites’ should pick who’s President of the United States.

They have no idea how stupid they make themselves look by making non-sensical statements like that.

I studied caterpillars for a while.

When you pinned one end to the observation board, they would squirm and squirm and squirm

Brennan has been pinned to the board

Just think, if Clinton had been elected, not a single thing would have come out about the corruption in the FBI, DoJ, etc. It would have all been swept under the rug where the malignant cancer would have grown and spread.

At least we now know about some of the corruption, but we will probably NEVER know just how far the rot has gone.

The FBI OOPR recommended he be fired for lying. Not, Sessions, no Trump his peers. I hate Brennan.

They look stupid to us because we pay attention, but to their ill-informed followers everything they say sounds just fine.
