Andrew McCabe

Listened to NPR interview on fresh air with Terry Gross. Great show as always.

He was fired 2 days from retirement. At the time various members of Congress offered to hire him to get him over the goal line that everyone works toward.

Did he get his government retirement? If not, the next president should grant it.

6. That's what I was thinking. That and how ironic McCabe's success is. Trump forced everyone to sign

a Non-disclosure Agreement and/or Non-disparage agreement. Had all those people not been silenced, much of the material in McCabe's book would have already been released. Having all the info come out at once, and from such a reliable source is making it exponentially worse for Trump. LOL. Couldn't happen to a nicer douchebag.

It’s a good thing for him Mueller wasn’t investigating. He doesn’t like when people lie to him.

5. He is suing the DOJ for his firing. He'll win.

Pretty sure it can be proven that he was fired for opening the investigation into Trump-Russia.

Putting him safely over the line. Trump's action was pure spite.
