Politics Talk. Now we know why the McCabe firing isn't being pushed in the media...he had a clear political agenda...

via Daily Caller.

Former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe lied four times, including to James Comey, about his authorization of leaks to the media, according to a Republican lawmaker familiar with an internal FBI report recommending McCabe’s firing.

“He didn’t lie just once; he lied four times,” Ohio Rep. Jim Jordan told Fox News’ Laura Ingraham on Thursday.

“Four times he lied. He lied to James Comey. He lied to the [FBI’s] Office of Professional Responsibility, and he lied twice under oath to the inspector general.”

Jordan, a Republican member of the House Judiciary Committee, told The Daily Caller News Foundation earlier on Thursday the Office of Professional Responsibility report revealed McCabe not only did not tell Comey he authorized leaks to the media, he “affirmatively denied” he did so.

So this is why this story faded so quickly from the headlines.  This is why the news media dropped it like a hot potato.

The timing was bad but the results unquestioned.  McCabe would have been fired no matter who was the Attorney General.  The Inspector General of the FBI had a solid case and made a common sense recommendation.

What agenda did McCabe push?

I have no idea and it's irrelevant.  What is relevant is that the premier law enforcement agency in the US (according to them) has a problem that's at the top of the tree.
