There are signs that federal prosecutors are close to deciding whether to charge former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, according to the New York Times.
I have zero doubts they’ll charge him, no matter the evidence, Barr’s DOJ is entirely corrupt and responsive to Trump’s whims.
So if he is charged and found guilty, how many years does “lacking candor” get you?
Not coincidentally, Trump just nominated Roland Freisler to the U.S. District Court. First case on his docket.
McCabe is so guilt of Felonious Royal Embarrassment.
Thou shalln’t embarrass Don Cheetos. Ever.
Is there a step past banana republic?
" McCabe earlier this month filed a lawsuit…"
…thereby guaranteeing that DOJ would charge him as a way of collaterally attacking his lawsuit.
INCOMING: “How could firing him possibly be bullshit if he’s been charged with a crime?”
I dunno. How many years does it take to vest in his pension plan? Probably one day less than that.
It had better fucking be less than 1.5 years. (Looking at you, DOJ and your boy who threatened the life–multiple times!–of a sitting U.S. Senator.)
Choosing where to start prosecuting perceived enemies. Must make it criminal to not be loyal to the person of the presidency.
Never go full banana.
Yes, but sadly those who could share details don’t speak of it. Bones buried in a corn field are naturally at a loss for words.
This should be interesting. If they try charging him then they’ll be exposed for what they did to him once he’s found innocent. Their lack of evidence against him can then be used in his lawsuit against the DOJ. If they decide not to charge him, then that’s effectively admitting that they don’t really have a case against him. It’s kind of a lose lose situation for the DOJ, right?
I just had a full banana in my smoothie … along with half a large apple, couple handfuls of blueberries, dark cocoa and vit/min/protein powder. Good stuff. 
I wouldn’t underestimate the ability of a Trumpist Fed Society Judge to declare that a pile of manure actually smells like roses.
Well it got us 4 years.
No brainer. McCabe dared to sue and to speak out and the timing of his firing was clearly intended to deprive him of his pension. Of course the next step is to bring criminal charges.
He should claim selective prosecution by referring to all those Trumpistas who lied to Congress and were caught out, with no consequences.
“Failed Shithole Banana Republic”?
And it seems he was given the option to lie and say he was resigning in order to get his pick of different, lower-level jobs, so we know how much value the DOJ is putting on “candor” during the Trump regime.
If McCabe is charged, I am assuming there will be discovery. Would his attorneys depose people at DOJ, FBI, etc?
