President Donald J. Trump fired now-former FBI Director James Comey to send a message to Senator John McCain, sources close to the White House confirm.
Earlier this year, McCain went after Trump with widely discredited opposition research that he immediately shared with Comey, his longtime friend.
Comey worked with McCain to go after businessman Jack Abramoff after Abramoff stopped McCain from winning the Republican Primary in 2000.
McCain has since been working with FBI Director Comey to help undermine President Trump since Trump was elected.
The FBI firing move, which did not leak, was carried out by White House counsel Don McGahn and Attorney General Jeff Sessions. President Trump deliberately kept Reince Priebus and Sean Spicer in the dark to keep them from leaking.

Jeeze McCain still can’t let the “He’s not a war hero thing go”, can he? It’s like he’s used that as his crutch to a cushy life and believes it. Not like he narc’d on his fellow soldiers, marines, airmen, and sailors in the Hilton or anything. Or passed information to Charlie for quality of life improvements for himself. Or helped the gookskies make propaganda. A real POW that stuck with fellow POWS for sure.
If the deep state somehow gets rid of Trump they we get Mike Pence who is a for real devote Christian patriot, and Pence will get final say on the SC picks. Plus they are playing with fire, Americans might get real irritated if they oust Trump.
I think the left has gone full retard.
John McMentally-ill needs to be targeted for recall...he is clearly an ally of the enemies of this Administration.....
Martha Stewart deserved to go to prison. Period.
Skank hangs out with people like Snoop Dog, and I’m ssuuuuuurreeee they don’t bash Trump at all together.

You'll have to wait for his loss in the next election, his resignation -- or the Grim Reaper.
Lol. After McCain steps down from his senate seat, of course.
Which means fake news. Name names,or shut up.
McCain is just jealous because he couldn’t ever win...he needs to get solace from his wife, Lindsey.
I think they are becoming a bit more scared. Trump has some of the key cabinet positions filled with military men.
If Putin really was an ally, McKook would have already had a Polonium cocktail.
No, they aren’t scared at all. They are arrogant as all get up and they think everyone is on their side.
It’s going to get worse.
I used to think McLame should just retire because he’s addled in the head now but I’ve changed my mind.
McCain should be jailed until the day he dies of natural causes. He abused his POW history. He abused his position as senator. He is a total RINO in every way. He is just plain evil and will spend eternity in Hell. Of that I have no doubt but I would like to see him get started right here on earth. Make it solitary confinement with no visitors except for his lawyer and then only once every 2 months for 10 minutes. No more.
I’d wish him dead but then he would suffer enough here and it’s not really the Christian thing to do but I could make an exception for him.
Some close personal friend she is...
Nice Martha, keeping it classy.
Wow! I guess your bong had an extra big hit in it tonight! Your statement is very near the top of my list of the “dumbest comments of all time!”
One can hope.....
A way to tell Prienus he is not trusted and should resign. My, this could be like chess.
What could President Trump do to McCain? I don’t think he has any power to expel McCain from the Senate.
What would you expect from a scum rat bastard who sold out his fellow prisoners for cushy treatment from the North Vietnamese?
