Former acting FBI Director Andrew McCabe publicly admitted that after the firing of James Comey, national security officials strategized on invoking the 25th amendment to remove President Trump from office.

“There were meetings at the Justice Department at which it was discussed whether the vice president and a majority of the cabinet could be brought together to remove the president of the United States under the 25th Amendment,” Scott Pelley said he learned in his “60 Minutes” interview with McCabe.

Pelley described the top bureaucrats as “counting noses,” and speculating on where various cabinet members might stand on the question of the president’s removal.

Just imagine if our side had tried this against Barack The Chosen One. Of course, that never would have happened, but just imagine it.

There needs to be a Nurenburg style trial of these Deep State traitors, with Trump himself apointing judges. I don’t trust our corrupt judiciary with this serious matter

remember, the only thing they had against Trump at that point, as now, was the discredited, Dem-generated dossier. And for that, they conspired.

Build the gallows.

Maybe that’s it. McCabe admits to Treason, and the hope is it stops there? It’s a head shaker.

“Why is he incriminating himself? This is now open and shut, yes?”

My thoughts, exactly. Has he been arrested yet? Or is he going to be a canary? What in the world is going on that someone goes on tv and admits such a crime and nobody even reacts? It’s a strange, strange world.
