TRUMP WORKS HIS REVENGE ON TRUTH SPEAKERS ONE MORE TIME! READ MCCABE'S STATEMENT HERE!
There is nothing clearer than Trump's desire for revenge against anyone who counters him or supports Mueller's Russia investigation. It's why he fired former FBI Director, James Comey a year ago and why he just fired Secretary of State Rex Tillerson the other day. Andrew McCabe was fired by Jeff Session last Friday for the very same reason - he spoke the truth. Even worse, in public testimony in Congress, he actually testified under oath about how and why James Comey was fired. This is, in Trump's diseased mind, the very height of disloyalty. Disloyalty, it seems, is the third rail or the red line never to be crossed with Trump. Normally, loyalty works in both direction: the person who gives loyalty is returned loyalty by the recipient. But not with Trump. With him loyalty works in only one direction: he demands loyalty from all who surround him but feels no compulsion to return the favor.
Yes, we all know and as Trump trumpets daily, he is a different kind of President. He's right, of course, since I don't think we've ever had a President who lies so much and so openly, who makes decisions on the last person who sucked up to him and who is so ridiculously uninformed and lacking in the the least flash of intelligence that even dogs display.
The latest sorry-assed event in a year long cornucopia of sorry-assed events, is the firing of Acting Director of the FBI, Andrew McCabe. Here's McCabe's post-firing statement and it is a doozy!

The latest sorry-assed event in a year long cornucopia of sorry-assed events, is the firing of Acting Director of the FBI, Andrew McCabe. Here's McCabe's post-firing statement and it is a doozy!
I have been an FBI Special Agent for over 21 years. I spent half of that time investigating Russian Organized Crime as a street agent and Supervisor in New York City. I have spent the second half of my career focusing on national security issues and protecting this country from terrorism. I served in some of the most challenging, demanding investigative and leadership roles in the FBI. And I was privileged to serve as Deputy Director during a particularly tough time.
For the last year and a half, my family and I have been the targets of an unrelenting assault on our reputation and my service to this country. Articles too numerous to count have leveled every sort of false, defamatory and degrading allegation against us. The President's tweets have amplified and exacerbated it all. He called for my firing. He called for me to be stripped of my pension after more than 20 years of service. And all along we have said nothing, never wanting to distract from the mission of the FBI by addressing the lies told and repeated about us.
No more.
The investigation by the Justice Department's Office of Inspector General (OIG) has to be understood in the context of the attacks on my credibility. The investigation flows from my attempt to explain the FBI's involvement and my supervision of investigations involving Hillary Clinton. I was being portrayed in the media over and over as a political partisan, accused of closing down investigations under political pressure. The FBI was portrayed as caving under that pressure, and making decisions for political rather than law enforcement purposes. Nothing was further from the truth. In fact, this entire investigation stems from my efforts, fully authorized under FBI rules, to set the record straight on behalf of the Bureau, and to make clear that we were continuing an investigation that people in DOJ opposed.
The OIG investigation has focused on information I chose to share with a reporter through my public affairs officer and a legal counselor. 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. It was the type of exchange with the media that the Deputy Director oversees several times per week. In fact, it was the same type of work that I continued to do under Director Wray, at his request. The investigation subsequently focused on who I talked to, when I talked to them, and so forth. During these inquiries, I answered questions truthfully and as accurately as I could amidst the chaos that surrounded me. And when I thought my answers were misunderstood, I contacted investigators to correct them.
But looking at that in isolation completely misses the big picture. The big picture is a tale of what can happen when law enforcement is politicized, public servants are attacked, and people who are supposed to cherish and protect our institutions become instruments for damaging those institutions and people.
Here is the reality: I am being singled out and treated this way because of the role I played, the actions I took, and the events I witnessed in the aftermath of the firing of James Comey. The release of this report was accelerated only after my testimony to the House Intelligence Committee revealed that I would corroborate former Director Comey's accounts of his discussions with the President. The OIG's focus on me and this report became a part of an unprecedented effort by the Administration, driven by the President himself, to remove me from my position, destroy my reputation, and possibly strip me of a pension that I worked 21 years to earn. The accelerated release of the report, and the punitive actions taken in response, make sense only when viewed through this lens. Thursday's comments from the White House are just the latest example of this.
This attack on my credibility is one part of a larger effort not just to slander me personally, but to taint the FBI, law enforcement, and intelligence professionals more generally. It is part of this Administration's ongoing war on the FBI and the efforts of the Special Counsel investigation, which continue to this day. Their persistence in this campaign only highlights the importance of the Special Counsel's work.
I have always prided myself on serving my country with distinction and integrity, and I always encouraged those around me to do the same. Just ask them. To have my career end in this way, and to be accused of lacking candor when at worst I was distracted in the midst of chaotic events, is incredibly disappointing and unfair. But it will not erase the important work I was privileged to be a part of, the results of which will in the end be revealed for the country to see.
I have unfailing faith in the men and women of the FBI and I am confident that their efforts to seek justice will not be deterred.
NOTE: And there you have it folks. Without a doubt one of the most pointed of screeds that I have ever seen. McCabe was fired for being honest in front of a Congressional Committee and for speaking truth to power. Whatever you might think of McCabe's transgressions at the FBI (he leaked to the press under the direction of his superiors) there is simply no more potent condemnation of Trump, Sessions and the entire Trump Team than this. They simply will not truck any and all testimony that belies their "we had nothing to do with it" line on Russian collusion. McCabe sounds like the very essence of what America used to be about. Used to be before Trump. I'm hoping that the pushback over McCabe's firing - come one, hours before his pension set in - will spread far and wide. I'm happy to help in this effort since this is the lowest of the low when it comes to Trump.
And make no mistake about it. This action by Trump and Jeff Sessions fits a pattern. The pattern of deep, dark involvement with the Russians in tilting the election to Trump. We all know that McCabe was fired because he refused to kow-tow to the Trump and Sessions line about the Russia investigation. McCabe, in my view, is a true American hero. End of story.
Trump Is Toast!
