FOOLISHNESS

You are being terribly disrespectful for those FBI types that are not members of the blackhats, the obama cabal.

Not really very “private” if the whole world knows it?

No I'm not. The entire U.S. Justice Department needs to be dismantled.

I work in a profession where public safety is paramount in my business. If prominent people in my profession oversaw a system that resulted in the kind of recurring failure we've seen with the DOJ/FBI, then I would understand perfectly why people would regard my education and professional license as worthless junk.

I have always maintained we need to have an agent commanding agents. Look at Mueller, Comey and Wray, all politics and no true agent credibility. Yes, McCabe was an agent, but I bet if you check with the rank and file they will tell you he was always an ass kisser. If the Bureau is run properly on merit and not politics, the respected enforcement leaders will rise to the top. That's why we need to get rid of the pretenders, the crocked politically driven lawyers to head up a law enforcement agency. If there is one thing I know, I know agents. They are like Marines. You have to earn your leadership respect in the ranks before you will be respected commanding grunts or agents. It's really pretty simple. That does not mean by a long shot that you do not need to keep a close watchful eye over agents or Marines because there will always be a few bad apples in the barrel. It is true in all walks of life.

San Bernardino, huh. Oh, you mean the bozo who opened the apartment to the public within hours? You mean the moron who didn’t have any prints lifted or the trash gone through in the apartment? The idiot who couldn’t be bothered to track down the ME guys who would hang out in the garage? The dunce who didn’t arrest mama? The complete ahat who dropped the case after doing a Bonnie and Clyde on the shooters? And the obvious terrorist sympathizer who didn’t bring in the immigration person/s who let them into the country with zero vetting?

No, thanks. We’re replacing one snake in the grass with another. Rinse and repeat.

Actually given the nature of power and corruption, a bill should be introduced to completely dissolve every federal agency every 20 years and let them be reconstituted based on cost, conduct, ethics, rule of law, and cost vs benefit analysis. Term limits where it is desperately needed.

“You are being terribly disrespectful for those FBI types that are not members of the blackhats, the obama cabal.”

There are no active FBI agents who have stood up and spoken out against the cabal. There are dozens of examples of the lower echelons raising holy hell in police departments when the leadership has gone corrupt. You see it from time to time in the military. But in the FBI, silence from every field office.

Every FBI agent has remained silent.

Although many detest Hollywood, they are good at showing us the truth, which we often miss. Remember agents JOHNSON and JOHNSON ?

Whoever comes in should be the second in command from a field office at least 1,000 miles away from DC. The entire Hoover Building must be looked on as corrupted and no one form the DC area should ever be promoted to the top again!

Too corrupt to be trusted.

McCabe has often been a target of President Trump...

Nice piece of editorializing woven in the script.

No, it has been conclusively demonstrated that McCabe was corrupt and likely broke the law -- on multiple levels. Moreover, his wife accepted $450,000 via Clinton for her senate run, while "investigating" Clinton.

The WaPo once again proving why they, along with the rest of the corrupt MSM, are nothing more than the propaganda arm of the corrupt one-world, Democrat party.

He doesn’t really have a “CV”, he has a resume’. CV’s are heavily tilted towards academic types. The C in CV stand for “curriculum”.

Former SWAT sniper?
In other words, he’s not a military sniper, he’s a cop.
Does he have a code of honor he lives by?
Our military Special Ops guys do.

Bottom line... Unless he demonstrates something to impress me, I don’t like him and would not trust him. He’s just another “Swamp Critter”.

He headed the FBI response to the San Bernardino terrorist attack? You mean the one where they left the terrorists apt filled with passports, documents and other materials laying around for the journalists to see and video? Yeh he will be great. (Sarc)

Funny, I don’t see how that comment comports with being fired. When you are told not to let the door knob hit you in the a$$ as you are leaving immediately, it doesn’t conjure up the idea that it was McCabe’s choice to “leave early!”

He wasn't fired. He's on leave until his retirement date.

“He wasn’t fired. He’s on leave until his retirement date.”

That is a difference without a distinction. He was told to leave his office immediately and never return. Doesn’t sound to me like it was anything other than a firing. You’re putting lipstick on a pig here.
