Acting FBI director McCabe, Sen. John Cornyn among 4 who will interview for FBI director job

[PA Democrat]

Sen. John Cornyn (Tex.), the second-ranking Senate Republican, who has in recent weeks become a more outward defender of President Trump, and acting FBI director Andrew McCabe, who on Thursday contradicted the Trump White House on a range of topics, will interview Saturday to serve as the FBI’s permanent director, according to people familiar with the matter.

The men are two of at least four people who will interview to replace James B. Comey, whom Trump suddenly fired this week, the people said.

The others are Alice Fisher, a white-collar defense lawyer who previously led the Justice Department’s criminal division, and Michael J. Garcia, a judge on the New York State Court of Appeals who previously served as the U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York.

All four will be interviewed by Attorney General Jeff Sessions and Deputy Attorney General Rod J. Rosenstein, the two top officials in the Justice Department.

"Recused" Jeff Sessions will be interviewing the person whose main goal will be to thwart the Russian probe for Trump. Cornyn at Monday's Senate hearings on Russia focused on the leaks! the leaks! the leaks!

Alice Fisher was alleged to have been involved in secret meetings dealing with "enhanced interrogation techniques" (TORTURE) during their use at Guantanamo during G.W. Bush's presidency. More recently, she delivered testimony supporting Gorsuch's SC nomination.

Acting director McCabe made the list as a mere formality IMO.

Anyone have any info on Garcia?
