Typical leftist move. They take care of their people who lose their jobs or get into some kind of trouble. Take care of them really good so the person won’t rat ‘em out.

He was fired. It’s back to zero for him. If he wants to work for 20 years for the congressman more power to him. But as someone on this thread said, he will never pass a background check.

I figured something like this would happen.

All he needs to do is add a couple of days of service to make his retirement requirements.

I do not believe that is how it works. He has his service so far. It is not negated. The question is, how does he get the extra couple of days needed for retirement?

Answer: a friendly congressman hires him for a couple of days. They count for civil service, and the usual rules of hiring do not apply to congress.

Still has to go through the process. Which means the congressman has to post the job internally, McCabe will have to pass a background check and while that is happening, McCabe will not be issued a government ID and Password.

The real crime is how does a gov‘t employee get a full pension at age 49 ?

No wonder the feds are going broke

“Election security” for a Democrat means election fraud. McCabe might score some bonuses if he gets enough fake votes in.

This would be akin to putting the
fox in charge of the hen house.
Aren’t the FBI tasked to investigate
voter fraud to begin with? McCabe
couldn’t accomplish voting integrity
during his tenure as an FBI agent.
He certainly isn’t about to change
horses and go at this full gallop.

Anyone remember a guy by the name if Robert Hanssen?

The Deep State is real, and scary.

It is a combination of special pensions for law enforcement and time in service.

Used to be common for most police departments and the military.

Depends on the position. He hasn’t been found guilty of anything yet, so...

Not necessarily. As long as it is the same or lower grade, it can be a noncompetitive appointment. He just needs a few days.

I remember Congressman George Hansen.

He went after the IRS. Then the deep state went after him.

Eventually, the Supreme Court vindicated him, after he had been financially destroyed.

The Media paint him as a con artist.

Potentially could soon be a felon. Yep, that would be a solid qualification from the Dem perspective.
