Why? I'll Tell You Why

The media is filled today with stories wondering why McCabe was investigated in the first place by the IG.  Trump must have demanded it, is the conclusion of many, but that is just wrong.  The reality is that the IG investigation began with a review of how the FBI handled the Hillary Clinton email investigation.  That review was demanded by congressional Democrats to make sure that the FBI wasn't kowtowing to some sort of GOP pressure.  Among those who announced that the investigation was a good idea were Andrew McCabe's lawyer.  The investigation was run by an IG who was appointed by president Obama but who is officially non-partisan.  In other words, the Democrats demanded, applauded and staffed this investigation.  Now that McCabe has been found to have lied under oath, the Democrats somehow want to blame the whole thing on Trump.  Morons like Democrat senator Richard Blumenthal of my own state (who is more commonly known as #LyingDick) are even claiming that the firing of McCabe is obstruction of justice by Trump.  Amazing!  What's next?  Will Blumenthal shoot someone in the Senate and then seek to have Trump arrested for murder?  I wouldn't put it past him.
