AP learns McCabe kept memos on Trump; Mueller now has them

WASHINGTON (AP) — Andrew McCabe, the onetime FBI deputy director long scorned by President Donald Trump and just fired by the attorney general, kept personal memos detailing interactions with the president that have been provided to the special counsel’s office and are similar to the notes compiled by dismissed FBI chief James Comey, The Associated Press has learned.

The memos could factor into special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation as his team examines Trump campaign ties to Russia and possible obstruction of justice.

McCabe’s memos include details of his own interactions with the president, according to a person with direct knowledge of the situation who wasn’t authorized to discuss the notes publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity. They also recount different conversations he had with Comey, who kept notes on meetings with Trump that unnerved him.

Though the precise contents are unknown, the memos possibly could help substantiate McCabe’s assertion that he was unfairly maligned by a White House he says had declared “war” on the FBI and Mueller’s investigation.

How can notes be trusted from a known liar?

“according to a person with direct knowledge of the situation who wasn’t authorized to discuss the notes publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity”

In other words, another criminal leaker, playing a game that Mueller, Rosenstein, Comey and McCabe cooked up.

Liars lie, even when they write it down.

Comey confided HIS notes to McCabe. This is supposed to be some kind of corroboration?

Now, exactly how does that work?

But Comey kept no notes on his meetings with Obama....and whoops...even forgot about a meeting with Obama.

McCabe sounds just like Comey!! But McCabe must be p***** that he even tagged with the self righteous Comey.

Because of this news, President Trump now must refuse to be interrogated by Mueller or his attack dogs.

They will assume the McCabe memo notes are 100% accurate and anything Trump says that differs from them is proof he is lying to an FBI agent.

Why is he just now turning them over to Mueller?

Exactly, the OPR of the FBI recommended that DOJ fire him which Sessions did. McCabe should be worrying about criminal charges not some twisted memo he wrote to himself.

Can you believe a word he has to say?

After all, he wrote it.

Are they already “lost”, “destroyed”, or made “CLASSIFIED”?

Lied to DOJ investigators, committed perjury in sworn testimony and fabricated evidence. Perfect witness for Mueller.

I hope he drew pictures. I remember some of them from middle school. I’m sure Trump would be flattered at the imagined size of his genitalia.

My guess is if he was all about changing the 302 docs, he has no problem lying.

A half assed defense attorney would tear him apart.

They were his golden ticket, his overhanging threat to Trump. Now they are just vindictive lies written by a liar to cover up his career of lying.

I would ask to see the notes from meetings he had with everyone else. Because it would be weird to have notes from just one guy.

“personal memos detailing interactions with the president that have been provided to the special counsel’s office and are similar to the notes compiled by dismissed FBI chief James Comey”

Of course they’re similar. Comey and McCabe just created the memos based on Comey’s fake notes from before. Duh.

McCabe probably stayed up all night scribbling out “memos” regarding the President.
