Looks like McCabe has a gofundme for his legal defense. He know's perjury charges are forthcoming. So, if anyone is sympathetic and want to help the bloke out, you can google his gofundme page. Rep. Jim Jordan says they've caught him lying 4 times and it's in the report that got him fired.

Jim Jordan, the bastion of truth and liberty himself.

If/when a Special Counsel is appointed to look at the FBI and FISA she'd just be low hanging fruit to get the indictments started.

You do realize, don't you, that the FBI had long been investigating Hillary and her emails, Bengazi, whatever, and determined no need for a special council. You get that, right?

Why then, did the subsequent investigation into Trump CO (started long before the chief dildo declared his candidacy, by the way, because you know: he gleefully hangs out and does business with criminal targets of the FBI) actually require a special council investigation into his matters?

Why do you think this is, Tajj? What is so profoundly difficult about asking yourself the easy, simple, obvious questions? Why do you refuse to engage at the lowest level of known facts, and then begin your reasoning from that vantage point? What is the allure of starting with known, generally unverifiable but usually debunked conspiracy nonsense, and beginning with that as your foundation of truth, seeking to then cherry pick disparate, unconnected tidbits of events and scattered fantasy to then prove a known lie?

I don't really fathom the appeal of seeking to lie to and undermine yourself. Why is this so attractive? As a rational, educated person, I guess I just don't understand the modern conservative mind. I dispensed with obvious nonsense ages ago, and learned to recognize that when the shouts of angry simpletons clearly disagreed with the obvious, known data, that these assholes were lying to me. Why do you and other conservative nimrods continue to allow these assholes to treat you like children? Why do you vote for them when they do nothing but promise you the moon, and turn around and legislate you into persistent anger and moral and economic poverty?

When is too much actually too much and you will find need to dispense with the amoral twats that are in charge of your teamsportsing political party?

How could they not have any idea?

It's been all over the news: The IG claims McCabe leaked and lied multiple times while under oath. The FBI's OPR recommended his termination. This seems to be S.O.P. for FBI agents who are accused of being 'less than candid' (or whatever their phrase is).

BTW: I continue to hear that claiming he will get no pension is incorrect.

Fern

No one, as far as I know, has claimed he gets no pension, at least after the first day that the news broke. What is demonstrably true, however, is that he needed one more ay to trigger his 1.7% rate on top of the default 6 or 7% rate, whatever that is.

It isn't about getting no pension, it's about not getting his full pension.It is a significant chunk of change considering his salary.

I've seen that guy in interviews. He think talking fast makes him credible.

When you are part of a three man tripod of Devin Nunes, Matt Goetz and Jim Jordan...you do not tend to have much credibility.
