It's endemic among the radical right.

When it pops, it'll hurt.

Who's that with a needle?

Trump wanting a war with Venezuela is the part that is really scary. He's just going by a playbook and doesn't care who gets hurt or what the consequences are. Of course, his sycophants will say that Mcabe lied about this.

The Republican party. That s how George W got his spot, and they spent 8 years doing NOTHING but trying to make Obama a one term president. This time they sided with an enemy of our country to keep out the popularly elected candidate because that countries leader didnt want her. They are the party of traitors. Trump Republicans are destroying America for spare change. Hmmm..who else do we know....7 pieces of silver was it?

Yes, Mueller will. It just won't be the truth you are hoping for.

There is a greater chance what Mueller reports will be more along the lines of what I think happened than what Trump fans think but we'll see what happens. The report should be made public and Trump and his cronies should be eager for all Americans to see what's in it.

Truth isn't truth.

You single out small nuances and try to claim that no one knows what they are talking about.

Do you?

I assume you know that Jeff Sessions, the former Attorney General, was nominated by Trump and later dismissed by him.

Sessions fired McCabe and we all know he did so at Trump's behest.

Really guys if this is the best you can do there is no point in bothering to post.

We get it. You like Trump. Trump can do no wrong. All the media is making stuff up and treating your boy unfairly.

Its blithering nonsense.
Again, you are wrong. This is getting tedious. Sessions let McCabe go after the FBI & DOJ ordered his release after a review. He was fired by his peers. Sessions & Trump had nothing to do with his internal review. As for the rest of your post.....all putting words in my mouth.

McCabe stated he has seen the letter Trump wrote and signed, that he wanted McCabe fired, long before any investigation into McCabe.

Sounds like doctored evidence by the Individual 1 camp...

Its no secret that Trump wanted him fired but he doesn't get to pick and choose which career civil servats he wants let go, the IG recommended his removal and that is how the system works.

"Fired FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe’s book tour began with a “60 minutes” interview this week in which he confirmed that he commenced an effort to remove President Trump from office, citing his concerns with the president’s supposed ties to Russia, for which no evidence has ever surfaced."

Andrew McCabe was far from the only FBI official to disgrace himself. Other now-fired FBI officials, such as James Comey and Peter Strzok, helped transform the FBI into a political weapon to sabotage the president through the baseless Trump-Russia investigation. There are still only two primary explanations for their conduct. The first is they were simply incompetent and commenced a probe without sufficient nonpartisan evidence. The second and more likely explanation is that McCabe and his cohorts were on a hell-bent quest to overturn the results of the election. Call it what it was: a soft coup attempt. Luckily for our republic, the coup attempt failed."

Hard to believe this could happen in our country. How would the media act if the Obama administration was treated this way?

Yes indeed he did. This reads like a piece of Hollywood fiction, deep state tries to unseat an elected president, by abusing their powers of office, colluding with Russians inside the Kremlin, a British spy, the DNC, the Democratic Party's presidential campaign, the CIA, FBI, NSA, FISA judges, and officials from the outgoing presidential administration.
