So, now David Bowdich will assume the duties of deputy director. He joined the FBI in 1995, as a special agent, and was a SWAT team member, an investigator into gangs, etc. He had previously been a detective and police officer in New Mexico.


Waste no time, Trump supporters! Start explaining why Mr. Bowdich should go!

Can you provide the link where she confirms he was removed? Because the one posted earlier was definitely not a confirmation AT ALL.

He should get more benefits like free housing in the Federal pen for being the traitor he is.

Stepped down, retired, removed, its all been reported and really not all that clear but he is out.

A.G. Rosenstein should be next, if he signed off on, or approval of, using the Dossier to get or extend a surveillance warrant on anyone in the Trump campaign.

"FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe is stepping down from the FBI, CBS News' Pat Milton has confirmed.

However, sources at the FBI said that this was largely his decision, CBS News' Andres Triay reports. He is currently on what's known as "terminal leave," that is, McCabe had accumulated enough leave time to depart the FBI now. His official retirement is in March. "

I mean, happens all the time in our company. Someone has a retirement date of Feb. 1 but leaves mid-December using their accumulated vacation time.

Of course he did. Most certainly he has attempted to obstruct justice.

According to many, that’s just a strange coincidence and very tin foil hat thinking. Those same people claim this is being done because McCabe is working as a witness for Mueller. The latter not tin foil hat thinking.

How else could they possibly rationalize destroying the very system of laws and justice that protect them from despotism?
McCabe very likely broke the law by illegally spying on candidate Trump and then POTUS elect Trump.
