Alert on this.
Sessions fired him because of
"Lack of candor" in Clinton Investigation.

Lack of candor say the liars.
Now he can't draw a pension which he would have earned on his 50th birthday on Sunday.

Maggot is a rat bastard.

We have to find some Republicans... he has to be impeached. Cut the bleeping deal needed, but he has to be impeached.

What do we have on Ryan?? It’s time to find those goods. If we need to pay for the info, so be it.

Our motto from now on should be ENOUGH!

There is a case against him that he was fired for inappropriate actions so it would be VERY hard for him to show that the investigation is incorrect or lies and prove that there was no cause to fire him.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/fbis-andrew-mccabe-is-fired-a-little-more-than-24-hours-before-he-could-retire/2018/03/16/e055a22a-2895-11e8-bc72-077aa4dab9ef_story.html?utm_term=.084f22dafb7b

Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz put McCabe in his crosshairs during a broad look at alleged improprieties in the handling of the Clinton email case. In the course of that review, Horowitz found that McCabe had authorized two FBI officials to talk to then-Wall Street Journal reporter Devlin Barrett for a story about the case and another investigation into Clinton’s family foundation. Barrett now works for The Washington Post.

Background conversations with reporters are commonplace in Washington, though McCabe’s authorizing such a talk was viewed as inappropriate because the matter being discussed was an ongoing criminal investigation. The story ultimately presented McCabe as a somewhat complicated figure — one who some FBI officials thought was standing in the way of the Clinton Foundation investigation, but who also seemed to be pushing back against Justice Department officials who did not believe there was a case to be made.
