3. For the FBI, Comey signed 3 applications, McCabe signed one. For the DOJ Yates, Boente, and Rosenstein each signed one or more. Why were different people the signers? Is that typical?
Just turnover. Comey was fired, so McCabe signed.
Yates was fired, so Boente, who was acting, signed. Then Rosenstein was appointed, so he signed.
There were 4 applications, spaced 90 days apart.
All those firings ocurred after Trump was inaugurated
They were allegedly looking for “Russian collusion in the election” after the inauguration- against a sitting President?
