McCarthy is not trying to justify anything. He is pointing out that since the coup attempt took the form of a counterintelligence operation, Obama almost had to be in the loop. So far he has avoided scrutiny.
Ive listened to several interviews with McCarthy.
Each time, he lays out all the evidence that it was an attempted coup and proceeds to the conclusion that no one can be prosecuted because, legal/law mumbo jumbo.
To which in my head I always quote Kurt Russell as McCredy when he sees the Thing turn the guys head into a spider and walk away.
You gotta be fn kidding me.
