Excellent historical analogy.

President Trump asserted on Saturday that special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia should never have been opened in the first place.
"The Mueller probe should never have been started in that there was no collusion and there was no crime," Trump wrote on Twitter.
"It was based on fraudulent activities and a Fake Dossier paid for by Crooked Hillary and the DNC, and improperly used in FISA COURT for surveillance of my campaign. WITCH HUNT!"

Well said. The McCabe firing was the shot across the bow for the Left’s coupsters. Next comes the IG report. Do you think the IG will recommend indictments?
We were warned by Dinesh D’souza what the Clintons were up to. When the “Clinton’s America, the audience clapped. It made a real impression. Too bad more people didn’t watch it. They squandered some real important information.
...and there’s John Francoise Kerry...
You’re welcome.
The hysteria spewed out about McCabe’s pension has raised a toxic stink across the political landscape already made toxic by the Clintonista Resistance Movement (a Soros enterprise). The fact is, McCabe doesn’t “lose” his retirement. It is only delayed. In order to save time, I quote an article by “Outside the Beltway”:
“Pensions — public as well as private — are required to meet certain vesting requirements, and, in fact, the FERS (Federal Employees Retirement System) benefits vest at 5 years, meaning that benefit accruals cannot be taken away.
In fact, McCabe is all of 49 years old, likely 50 by the time readers see this, and what he lost out on was, as CNN much more calmly recounts, the ability to take his benefits at age 50, rather than somewhere between age 57 and age 62, and he lost his eligibility to a special top-up in benefit formula. These are, admittedly, tangible financial losses, but it is grossly misleading that various news outlets are giving the general public the impression that he has lost his pension entirely.
McCabe may not be able to draw an annuity until a date ranging just shy of his 57th birthday, and as late as his 62nd. That could put the value of his uncollected pension in the realm of a half-million dollars.
On top of that, McCabe could also lose his law enforcement boost.
“What he would lose — and this is a lot of money — he would lose the enhanced benefits that law enforcement officers get,” said George Chuzi, an attorney who represents federal employees.
Under the rules of FERS, that means he could be left with the standard multiplier of 1% on top of his years of service, down from the 1.7% enhanced rate for law enforcement.”

The possible list of reasons is nigh-endless, and nothing he has done is out of place for your standard-issue partisan Democrat.
I’d love it if your hypothesis were true but we need more data points than merely that he was once, long long ago, a combat-hardened Marine.
People can change for many reasons. Time spent in DC is particularly corrupting, and he has been there a very long time now.
On the other side of the evaluation are more numerous and specific data points, such as that the traitor Comey was his own protege, the advancement of other corrupt individuals under his leadership, or his personal delivery of uranium to Russia in the Clintons’ Uranium One scheme.
At the best that’s a lot of very shady stuff for a white hat to be involved in.
I would love for him to be our secret man on the inside, but the more likely reality is that he is a champion for a Deep State that treated him quite well, and that is the role he plays now.
The memos are proof of a conspiracy. Actually, if Trump is questioned by Mueller, he will be charged with lying basis the conspiratorial memos. Sessions needs to indict the coup now.
Excellent historical analogy.
Thank God we don't have one now.
I’ll agree with that. We have a three party system now.
Democrats
Republicans
Trump
That doesn't mean that Sessions didn't play up to Tump in order to get the position. Could all be part of the long game they play.
And John Kerry has three purple hearts.
Exactly...patience is a virtue.
Sure...move to Turkey and live in a totalitarian regime. America is still a Republic.
Hang in there mister.
(Waiting and watching)
The House impeaches...the Senate convicts. Clinton has been impeached. In this case, we want that effort to fail.
“Cankles’ head on a pike” ping!
The whole Mueller team has ignored the real crimes. Mueller should be ashamed to be a tool of the conspirators!!!!!Get rid of him and his cronies.
“People here wanted Cankles’ head on a pike. Well, this is how you get it.”
Hope you are right, LS. You’ve been right about a lot of things that others have missed. So, here’s hoping...
John Kerry isn’t a Marine.
