Kevin McCarthy: ‘We came closest ever to having a coup…and now we need accountability’
saraacarter.com ^ | September 15, 2019 | Sara Carter

Republican House leader Rep. Kevin McCarthy, R-CA., told Fox New’s Sunday Future’s host Maria Bartiromo that the origination of the FBI probe into President Donald Trump’s campaign in 2016 and what followed ‘was the closest thing to a coup that anyone has ever seen."

Moreover, he noted that the actions and evidence gathered regarding many former Obama Administration officials and bureaucrats like former FBI Special Agent Peter Strzok, former FBI Attorney Lisa Page, former CIA Director John Brennan, former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe reveal that they were attempting to frame Trump.

Last week, the District of Columbia U.S. Attorney Jessie Liu recommended moving forward with charges against McCabe. The charges stem from recommendations made by Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz’s report last year that McCabe lied under oath and leaked to the media. McCabe’s lawyers attempts to appeal the decision was rejected by the Deputy Attorney General, a source familiar with the decision told SaraACarter.com last week.

Fox News first reported that McCabe’s legal team said they received an email from the Department of Justice which said, “The Department rejected your appeal of the United States Attorney’s Office’s decision in this matter. Any further inquiries should be directed to the United States Attorney’s Office.”

I vote for waterboarding until the whole story is known and admitted.

What I see more and more is this attitude: Well they tried to stage a coup but failed so let’s just let it go but we’ll make sure it doesn’t happen again. So the Rats get a mulligan. Comey and his little gang of traitors become media heroes.

With each passing day, as more evidence is revealed, I become all the more convinced that the major perps will see the full court of justice come slamming down on them.

I'm trying to stay optimistic. But there has to be a trigger so that all of the obvious stuff starts moving forward. What's the trigger? I have been thinking an IG report would get the ball rolling, but so far they have been "interesting" but have not triggered anything.

I think it's awkward for the DOJ to suddenly wake up and say "Here are some indictments" just out of the blue. There needs to be some triggering event that says "Today things are different. Today we don't let things slide."

I agree. It was a failed attempt to overthrow a legally elected USA president. With a lesser man than Donald Trump, the traitors would now be in control of this Republic. Justice requires retribution and as the saying goes, justice delayed is justice denied. These traitors would have given no mercy to those who stood in their way and the same judgment should now be applied to each and everyone of the participants in this attempt to deny the USA citizens the choice they voted for to be the COC of this Republic.

Complimentary article....

McCarthy promises accountability as Barr reviews IG’s FISA report: ‘The closest we’ve ever seen to a coup’

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/mccarthy-promises-accountability-as-barr-reviews-igs-fisa-report-the-closest-weve-ever-seen-to-a-coup

....”We came the closest ever to this country having a coup, and now we need accountability,” McCarthy told Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures.” “I respect this attorney general so greatly, that the way he has handled this, he believes in accountability, but more importantly, he believes in the rule of law.”

When asked if there will really be accountability, McCarthy promised, “Yes.”

James Comey and Andrew McCabe, who were the director and deputy director of the FBI when the Russia probe began, have been the subjects of separate IG investigations, and McCarthy believes they will both face consequences.

“We will see an indictment,” he said of McCabe, who is facing the prospect of federal charges after Horowitz faulted him in a separate inquiry over statements he made during a Hillary Clinton-related investigation. The review found that McCabe “lacked candor” when talking with investigators, but the former FBI official has denied wrongdoing. Washington, D.C., U.S. Attorney Jessie Liu recommended charges against McCabe after the DOJ rejected his appeal....

The words ‘attempted coup’ need to be shouted from the rooftops so that even the MSM might hear.

Oh, that’s right, they were a big part of it... Never mind.

RE waterboarding:

I do too, but that won’t happen. All kidding aside, I want these assh*les jailed in Leavenworth or Gitmo. They’ll just do it again or get others to attempt it if not. There HAS TO BE CONSEQUENCES for their actions, like there would be for You or I.

RE “Well they tried to stage a coup but failed”
The days of the “Good Ol’ Boys Club” are over. The dems threw down, and there needs to be examples made of the conspirators.

Imagine if the tables was turned, and it was OUR side that tried to stage a coup against that skinny Kenyan communist sh*thead that we had to put up with 8 years.

What do you think the commie dems would have done?

Yup, the perpetrators of the coup get book deals while all of America gets a big middle finger and the shaft.

If only that was all we got. What we are going to get at some point in the future is these Democrat loony tunes will be elected to majorities in both houses of Congress and winning POTUS.

Then all bets are off as they seek to implement the agenda we have seen at the Democrat "debates" this summer. Open borders; weapons confiscation; open season on whites; nationalization of businesses; unlimited baby murder; shrunken military and defense; and trillions in taxes to stop the global warming HOAX.

Stay arrogant, James Comey! LOL....

But nothing happens...and even Clinton taunts overseas...the GOP was is part of it...that is why nothing happens...and many are blackmailed, I’m sure.

I don’t have such confidence.

There’s so much evidence and it’s extremely intricate, with several major perps involved, like Comey, Brennan, Clapper, Ohr, Misfud, Halper, Stryk, Page, McCarthy, and their Federal agencies, that all must be lined up in proper sequence with no holes. No room for errors on the part of the prosecution. The web of deceit was enormous and detailed. We know it went to Obama and his WH, which included Samatha Powers for all her unmasking, Susan Rice, Eric Holder, VP Stupid Biden, and overseas governments of England, Italy, Australia. I guess it’ll come down to “timing.”

I’m of the thought that the coup is still ongoing.

I think the coup is still going on.

Of course it is still underway Not all the rebels and mutineers are identified and punished as they should be. I credit the lack of legitimate outrage among republicn politicians to downright cowardice. If you are weak and cowardly that is when the enemy will attack. So standby the evil is headed in our direction.
