Before you get too far off track, see my edit above.

/e If that wasn't enough, McCabe was also involved in the Clinton email BS as well, and NOT on the side of law and order (not the show).

/ee In fact, if you read all three articles by TheHill about the Uranium One deal....you'll see these names:

McCabe
Eric Holder
Comey
Rosenstein
Mueller
Clinton and Obama, ofc

...all before Trump even announced he was running.



/eee Here's all three...

And there goes McCabe before he could collect his pension. Talk about bullshit. Absolutely hilarious to see sessions talking about dishonesty under oath as part of the reason for the firing.


It's pretty funny though that the justification for firing both Comey and McCabe centered around their actions related to Hillary Clinton investigations... and those actions hurt Hillary. All the nonsensical Fox News conspiracy theories are never used as justification.

If the FBI had gotten Weiners laptop before the SDNY, it would still be sitting inside McCabes desk gathering dust.

McCabe and Comey had different political goals. McCabe might have been a clinton partisan, but comey wasnt, everything he did pointed to a man trying to construct a politicized FBI that served as its own estate, like Hoover all over again. Comeys own testimony paints that picture- he was willing to make political statements both to help and hurt Clinton as he felt it served the appearances for the FBI, felt obligated to break FBI protocols to do damage control for her just from the damage the FBI inflicted but not her puppet enough to prevent that damage in the first place. He wasn't playing ball like McCabe. Of course, he resented Trump more, so when the Dossier and Flynn leaks came out, Comey refused to put out the fires his own FBI started with leaks and extend the same courtesy he had shown Clinton, and then himself was obviously leaking to attack Trump. So all Comeys justifications about being obligated to stamp out the perception of political interference over those buttery males by actually politically interfering- that falls flat when he wouldnt apply it equally. Comey was doomed when he forfeited his apolitical role and got his hands dirty, but pissed off both sides. The infamous colbert audience reaction sums that up pretty well

I never liked conspiracy theories, the dysfunction of government is better explained by flawed ideological partisans acting both in self interest and helping their cause of their own volition than by shadowy deep state networks

also pretty sure that Comey hated Trump more than he hated
Clinton, but Clinton hated Comey more than Trump hated Comey. His skeleton would be hanging from shackles behind the oval office throne if she had won

Hey if you want to read into this McCabe scandal and get pretty well versed on it, heres the WSJ article he leaked to anonymously during the election, which is what got him fired:
http://archive.is/u1ROD

Notably, he went to great efforts to paint the Weiner laptop delay as being jurisdictional and the fault of the DoJ for not authorizing subpoenas, as well as casting himself as a nonpartisan torn between a political third rail and a nonthingburger investigation into the emails. Thats their narrative from his anonymous sources. Then when they talked to lower level rank and file FBI, they said the investigation was being obstructed by McCabe. Who ordered them to stand down, even when they had good evidence.

Also notably, Comey testified under oath that he had never given approval for anyone under him to leak to the media anonymously. But in McCabes statement yesterday upon getting the pink slip, McCabe said

Quote
The OIG investigation has focused on information I chose to share with a reporter through my public affairs officer and a legal counselor. As Deputy Director, I was one of only a few people who had the authority to do that. It was not a secret, it took place over several days, and others, including the Director, were aware of the interaction with the reporter. It was the type of exchange with the media that the Deputy Director oversees several times per week.


And comey under oath said:

Quote
Asked if he had “ever been an anonymous source in news reports about matters relating to the Trump investigation or the Clinton investigation” or whether he had “ever authorized someone else at the FBI to be an anonymous source in news reports about the Trump investigation or the Clinton investigation,” Comey replied “never” and “no.”


not quite a total contradiction, but it throws Comey under the bus for perjury if he has to argue that he knew McCabe was leaking anonymously and and had talked to him about it, but "didnt approve" yet allowed it to happen. He could argue he learned about it after the fact, that door is still open

Comey could also argue his technicality that neither he nor mccabe directly leaked to the media, but intentionally used go-betweens like mccabes public affairs officer, so they could maintain plausible deniability and lie under oath about it. Which still leaves them both liable for misleading investigators and perjury anyway, since its being intentionally misleading under oath
