Andrew McCabe Fired: Sessions Fires Assistant FBI Director Before Retirement

Well, it’s a start. [1]

And of course the media immediately leaps up in defense of McCabe. Don Surber [2] notes this one and dispatches it;

For example, NBC News reported, [3]“When McCabe’s wife, Jill, ran for the state Senate in Virginia in 2015, she accepted a donation from a political action committee controlled by Gov. Terry McAuliffe, a friend and supporter of Hillary Clinton’s — and that became the basis for a series of Twitter attacks from Trump.”

It quoted a Trump tweet — “Problem is that the acting head of the FBI and the person in charge of the Hillary investigation, Andrew McCabe, got $700,000 from H for wife!

“The NBC said Trump was “erroneously claiming that McCabe had a role in facilitating the contribution.”How does NBC know he had no role in that $700,000 payout to Mrs. McCabe? I want proof from NBC that McCabe was clean.

You you know that’s the interesting part… Whenever money flowed to Hillary Clinton it was always wrapped in plausible deniability.

Addendum, 30 minutes later: I see Glen Reynolds [4] is noting the same thing, including the peice from Don. Guess I’ve got to put him higher on my morning tour of the net.

And by the way, I’m watching and waiting for Surber to get the boot from Blogspot for actually being conservative. After all, that kind of censorship is the new norm. [5]
