The AP has a big article out today in which Andrew McCabe is quoted as saying that his firing by the Attorney General is part of President Trump's "war on the FBI".
Think about that. Three non-partisan agencies (the Inspector General, the Office of Professional Responsibility of the Department of Justice and the Office of Professional Responsibility of the FBI) find that McCabe improperly leaked confidential information to the media and also lied under oath on multiple occasions. All three of these independent non-partisan agencies recommend that McCabe be fired. The Attorney General accepts those recommendations and fires McCabe. (In fact, McCabe is lucky he has yet to be indicted.) Nevertheless, now that he has been caught, McCabe says his firing is part of Trump's war on the FBI and the media plays it up big. Anyone, and I mean anyone with a brain would understand that unless McCabe wants to admit criminal behavior, he has to say something like the nonsense he is tossing out now. It's not news; it's just a phony excuse by McCabe cause he got caught.
Of course, publishing phony news that criticizes Trump is always something that the mainstream media likes to do. Still, the is #FakeNews at its worst.
