Andrew McCabe: Decision To Investigate Trump As A Russian Agent Was Based On Public Information, Not Secret Intel

DC: Former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe acknowledged Tuesday night that the FBI’s decision to open a counterintelligence investigation against President Trump is based on information that is already publicly known rather than previously undisclosed information tying the Republican to Russia.

“Are there other things that haven’t been made public at this point that contributed to the opening of the investigation of the president?” CNN’s Anderson Cooper asked McCabe in an interview.

“I’m not so sure that there are things that haven’t been made public,” replied McCabe, who was fired from the FBI on March 16, 2018.

McCabe’s comments help settle speculation about whether the FBI had secret information linking Trump to Russia. The New York Times first reported on Jan. 11 that the FBI had opened the investigation alongside a separate obstruction of justice inquiry against Trump.

McCabe’s comment on CNN suggests that the FBI did not have any smoking gun piece of evidence showing that Trump was working as an agent of the Russian government.  MORE

  1. All of these details…

    1. Obama was spying illegally on Americans throughout his presidency, and Trump since 2012 (birther revenge) and with even more vigor when Trump won the Republican primary.

    2. Numerous multifarious corrupt deals were going on all over the place within the Obama administration and in connection with the Clinton Foundation.

    3. No one expected (1) or (2) to become an issue because Hillary was the annointed and expected to become president.

    4. When Trump won the presidency, hysterics broke out among all the criminals who (a) had to cover up their years of wrongdoing and (b) desperately needed to remove Trump since their being outed was at risk as well as their panoply of donors and power-brokers also being unhappy that their globalist economic schemes also were at risk.

    5. Everything else, including finger-pointing every which way, the post-inauguration abuses and shenanigans, the machinations by the corrupt FBI “team” to put Mueller into place (aided and abetted by corrupt Congressers and incestuous relationships with corrupt corporate-owned media), the brazen attemped coup against a sitting president, and the continual lying and fake news all are related.

    There are scores of co-conspirators who must be perp-walked or locked up in Gitmo.

    Please wake me up when someone is arrested.
