Former FBI deputy director Andrew McCabe lands book deal
The Hill ^ | 09/18/18 | Joe Concha

Former FBI deputy director Andrew McCabe has scored a book deal for "The Threat: How the FBI Protects America in the Age of Terror and Trump," according to an announcement from his publisher.

McCabe was ousted from the bureau earlier this year after a Justice Department inspector general report concluded that McCabe had lied about his disclosures to media. McCabe has denied the allegations and is currently suing the Justice Department for wrongful termination.

The book deal comes just months after former FBI Director James Comey released "A Higher Loyalty," which is highly critical of the president and sold more than 600,000 copies in its first week alone in April.

"I wrote this book because the president's attacks on me symbolize his destructive effect on the country as a whole," McCabe said in a statement through St. Martin's. "He is undermining America's safety and security, and eroding public confidence in its institutions. His attacks on the most crucial institutions of government, and on the professionals who serve within them, should make every American stand up and take notice."

According to the publisher, McCabe will chronicle "a series of troubling, contradictory, and often bizarre conversations" with Trump and other administration officials that he claims in the book "undermine the FBI and the entire intelligence community" while posing a threat to the public.

McCabe began his career with the FBI in a New York field office in 1996. He was fired by Attorney General Jeff Sessions fired in March just days before his scheduled retirement and has disputed the inspector general's report about the reasons behind his firing.

“...just full of this crap...”

Exactly. One library and one library branch that I frequent both have used book sale rooms along with tables full of for free books: 95% of it is this type of garbage that no one reads.

The book is a rewrite of “Moby-Dick” but with a “better ending”. McCabe is Ahab want will try to sell the book as autobiography rather than non-fiction.

Every time a rat needs legal fees, some publisher floats the bill like this. Commie liberal scum.

Unfortunately that’s a state law.

This situation screams for a federal version of that. Obscene to see these people profit from their crimes like this.

Everyone who should hide their faces from decent society is now writing books. What strange times we’re living in.

He should be looking to get a plea deal instead.

Is McCabe being funnelled hush money to keep the EU out if it?
