Is this about him being a witness for Mueller's obstruction case or is this about firing Rosenstein & then Mueller?
It'll happen fast if its about getting rid of those two.

He knows the only people watching his SOTU speech are his base & billionare friends (and of course Putin) so he's got to show he has covered their behinds.

C'mon Mueller, UNSEAL THE INDICTMENTS!

Didn't McCabe just take accumulated leave? He already announced his retirement. He's still on the payroll through March, no?

That's the point of all the concern.

out of McCabe and anybody else flushing out the Whitehouse. Their only political cover for forcing him out would be Nunes' self-serving memo. But that hasn't been released. The House would have to take a vote to declassify it.

So now that McCabe is retired with full benefits, trump doesn't have that scapegoat anymore. If they want to make an issue, then they are going to bring charges on McCabe, but they won't because it's all bullshit, including the memo.

If they try to install one of Giuliani's set, that will be, should be, ripped to shreds by anyone watching. trump thinks he's playing smart. He's not. He's fucking with the careers of people who actually work for a living and care about this country, and know him to be the grifter mole that he is. There will be a reckoning.

I suspect McCabe is pissed and rightfully so. See my comment down the page.

What pisses me off is McCabe being attacked by these pieceofshit congressassholes who aren't fit to shine McCabe's shoes or to pick up after his dog. God knows I hope McCabe goes on Rachel and gives 'em hell.

Maybe they feel they have reached critical mass and can make their move.

And most operational people have been through a lot more than a dump dynasty attempt.

Admittedly dump's friend vlad may have slipped in some pretty powerfully situated operatives but for the most part these will be detected and isolated. Sort of like the body reacting to an infection. Now, auto-immune - that's scary.

Hmmm. McCabe announced several weeks ago he would retire in March. FBI sources say he is retiring now because he has enough vacation time saved up to see him to end of March. So -- he will officially be on leave from now to 3/31 at which point he retires..

I suspect he said:

"FUCK IT!!! JUST FUCK IT!!! I have spent my whole professional life serving this country with integrity, patriotism and fidelity and I will not be pissed on any longer by a gang of lowlife motherfuckers in Congress and the White House!!!"

that I was unable to read because of paywall, that said Wray found something in an upcoming Inspector Generals report that concerned him about McCabe and was going to move to demote him but let him leave early to avoid that punishment.

Not sure of details perhaps someone else can read story and comment
