Andy McCabe: the latest

I've been following the career of former acting director of the FBI, Andy McCabe since the moment he took over after James Comey was fired and was asked by Congress if the lies Trump and Sarah Sanders told about Comey were true. He did the right thing, not the expedient thing, and told the truth ...



Since before Trump was president he has been attacking McCabe, and McCabe's refusal to turn on his boss just added more fuel to the fire. Trump launched attack after attack against McCabe on twitter and managed to get McCabe fired just hours before his pension from the FBI would vest. Now Trump and his suck-up attorney general, Barr, are working to prosecute McCabe.

There are too many details for me to go into here, but below is a good discussion about all of this from Deadline White House that illuminates the situation ...



I believe Andy McCabe is being wrongly besmirched by Trump and his subservient DOJ, and I encourage anyone who wants to know what kind of man Andy McCabe really is to read his recent book, The Threat: How the FBI Protects America in the Age of Terror and Trump. I believe he's an honest, principled, and brave person who doesn't deserve to have his career and reputation destroyed.
