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.

Sadly, I think the more reasonable thing to conclude is it means there is no real investigation going on

Agree; I just don’t think we’re going to get it.

Each of the three men display certain animal characteristics.
James Comey; The Great Dane,
Robert Mueller; The Bloodhound,
Andrew McCabe; Pit Bull.

They both need to be charged, disbarred, convicted, and jailed. Give one 5 years to rat out the other; promise the other 10 years minimum. Else 3 each if they plead guilty AND finger everyone else involved.

We sure get a lot of those in the past year. Don’t recall ever seeing so many, everywhere, and almost none pan out.

McCabe- noisy useless Chihuahua thinks of himself as being much bigger that he is and is sorely in need of a hard kick in the ass.

So true. It’s remarkable how many people still get excited about things that are ‘about to happen.’ It’s always, ‘soon,’ but never, ‘now.’

The sad truth is that Mueller’s interminable witch hunt will need to finally wind down before things actually start happening. That’s one motivation for Mueller to just keep it going: to hamstring Trump.

McCabe’s problems go way beyond the lying. He’s surrounded by DOJ colleagues who’ve already flipped on him.

Anyone who waits too long won't be able to get any of the 'good' deals... time's flying.

Sessions is actually waiting to try and catch him lighting up a joint so he can bust him for that instead.

Those that go into public discourse and defend their crimes have not “made a deal.” Those that keep their damn mouth shut have made the deal. Stotze is not talking, his lover Lisa Page is not talking, McCabe is not talking with the exception of blaming Comey. Stotze and Page have made the deal and are not talking. When McCabe shuts up we will know he has made the deal. Coemy is the man that will take the hit unless he gives up Hillary and Obama and much of the top of the FBI.

Dubai is a lovely place to live if you have a lot of money and they do not have an extradition treaty with the USA. Winters in Dubai are great. Summers are humid hell but that is why they invented air conditioners. The elite never feel the heat in Dubai if you have a lot of money.
