It Sure Looks Like Things are About to Go Down Between McCabe and Comey
Law and Crime ^ | 31 March 2018 | Elura Nanos

Well, you had to know that drama between Andrew McCabe and James Comey was going to heat up. After Deputy FBI Director McCabe was fired, just two days before his planned retirement, he issued a statement that reflected badly on former FBI Director James Comey. In the statement, which refuted the Trump administration’s accusations of unauthorized media leaks relating to the Hillary Clinton email investigation, McCabe said the following about his talks with media:

As Deputy Director, I was one of only a few people who had the authority to do that. It was not a secret, it took place over several days, and others, including the Director, were aware of the interaction with the reporter.

The problem was that Comey had already gone on record that he never leaked information and never approved such a leak. The inconsistency in the two men’s official statements was hard to ignore.

He’s a candidate to become completely unglued. McCabe’s problems go way beyond the lying.

He’s surrounded by DOJ colleagues who’ve already flipped on him. He’s a candidate to exit with a final meltdown.

Comey has already been accused of leaking info after he left.

Comey admitted he leaked his memo(s) regarding his talks with Trump to his professor friend to leak to the press to get a special prosecutor appointed.

Nothing to see here - just a Gentlemen’s disagreement. They’re both upstanding public servants, after all...

That’s why Jill McCabe took to the ComPost.

These are real lies as opposed to the phony lies Flynn told.

Yes, plus Comey fingered Bill Preistap in his testimony before the House committee, and Preistap has not been called to testify, which suggests he has already flipped and is working with the investigators against Comey.

McCabe can be chief of police in Trump’s soon to be built penal colony. Call it Puerto Rico.

Perhaps he lunches with Corzine.

‘Kabuki theater, none of them will do time or even be indicted.’

Exactly. We get another, ‘It’s about to happen,’ story and that’s the extent of it.

That would be a real injustice. A thorough investigation is absolutely required here.

Comey must have jumped out of socks when he heard McCabe say he knew all about it. Like most liars and crooks, they can't keep their stories straight. They reek.
