Folks. This is not just about McCabe. This is Trump’s way of intimidating anyone in the Federal bureaucracy, who does not pledge loyalty or who might even think about blowing the whistle. The Chinese have a proverb for this: “Kill the chicken to warn the monkeys”. Trump’s vicious and criminal behavior will ultimately be his downfall. I just hope our constitutional system is robust enough to survive his depradations.

See, that’s the problem. People need to stop referring to it as “maniacal rage” and start referring to it as “continual tantrums”.

I guaranmotherfuckingtee that Comey has absolutely no conception that he is in any possible way responsible for the rise of Trump and the fall of the USA.
The man has never shown any ability to perceive even the slightest flaws in himself or his actions.

Neither do I.
I want to see him impoverished, ignored, and in court, being sued till hell won’t have it again.

Oh yes you will be free of this president and his maniacal rage…we’ll all see to that. We owe you that much at least.

To have that cloud lifted suddenly, it’s really hard to get your mind around it.
Talk to Secretary Clinton. They did it to her several times.

Couldn’t happen to a more deserving cantaloupe. His handlers are desperate. He is going down in the most public, humiliating way possible and he deserves it.

I want him to live long enough to be indicted, convicted, sentenced, and spend many days in prison. Once he’s in prison he can live to 100 for all I care.

I agree with Andrew McCabe. Christian conservatives are loyal to their party and biblically vile and vengeful. They don’t forget those who question their authority and are capable of enormous evil.

And he isn’t going down alone either.

Andrew will be free when a van pulls up to the entrance of St. Elizabeth’s Hospital, and a large guy with an orange ass is escorted inside.

I hope he doesn’t have to wait until Trump is out of office to get a favorable decision in a wrongful termination suit. Let’s hope that there are a few decent judges left on the bench.

Sometimes I’m exasperated by the failure of media figures to give due expression to the depth of the peril in which we find ourselves and at the lack of alarm generally by a public numbed by a quarter century of post-Fox epistomological crisis.
Everyone who’s not blinded by the personality cult (or one of them, anyway) seems to be taking a “we’ll wait until after the election to freak out about it” approach.

Those people executed by hungry dogs in North Korea… they too “lacked candor.”

Yes, because in 2016 it didn’t matter what laws were broken or norms destroyed because Trump couldn’t possibly win.
So naturally, the entire world should embrace the “he won’t be reelected, we’ll be fine and all of this will fix itself in 2020” narrative.

I used to think this, but consider how many “constitutional sheriffs” and birther DAs there are in deep red states (and the occasional blue one). They would be racking up indictments and arrest warrants with an assembly line.
I think that real Special Prosecutors would be a great idea, and maybe they should have the power to indict (but perhaps not try until end of term, with statute of limitations tolled but also no federal funds used for defense).
Any simple solution we try to put in place will sooner or later be gamed by the nihilists on the right, and we have to be ready for that.
