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.

I think Spicer was not told so he would have plausible deniability
It should be handled as a criminal matter.
Yeah, and ain’t it awful that he has to stomp on a member of the party that supposedly supports him?
Unbelievable. The idea that McCain represents Republicans in Arizona is ridiculous. He’s a slimy swamp creature, slithering around trying to be bigger then he is.
“And givien McButwipes record, would make a better senator.”
And a better pilot. He sucked!
I’m not real intricate on how we got here, but Donald Trump appears to be honestly interested in making America as it was designed.
His way of speaking may not fit with the BS Harvard crew, but it appears honest and I can follow it. We must save America from the filth that wants it to be like global BS, “Europe” and other snowflake ideals.
God Bless DJT, America and those that believe in America and are honest.
Whenever you hear the words “sources close to the white house” note that whatever follows is fabricated. One would think that the media would not be using that same 50 year old tactic any longer.
And Soros money.
Yes, we should all be “so over” any Bush; vote against George P. on March 6, 2018.
Who has AZ elected that was good? They removed Governor Mechem.
That's what I was thinking. Maybe prevent Comey from destroying evidence of...say...who in the Obama Administration was illegally unmasking?
Barry Morris Goldwater
He's learning, but he has many miles of dark alleys to navigate- he desperately needs experienced(congressional) help (Newt?). President Trump needs to eliminate 99% of the State Dept.
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
I didn’t vote for old man Bush... either time. I voted for Little Boy Bush once. I believe he was a wolf in sheep’s clothing. I know lots of people who say they voted for him “because he was a “Christian”. His own words proved otherwise when he said Christians and Muslims pray to the same God.
>> Too bad Trump cant fire McCain.
Arizona had plenty of opportunities.
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.
