    Sessions did not recuse himself from the Clinton email investigation (or the IG review of that investigation)

    EDIT: I stand corrected, see NewRoxFan post below

    That's nice, but I was thinking about Comey.

    Regarding McCabe, he is a material witness to the obstruction involving Comey. So even then, the recusal is relevant.

    And non of this matters with respect to whether or not the man deserved to be fired. What matters is the Trump administration pattern of going after people who have not pledged loyalty to the man over country and/or those who have witnessed or investigating his transgressions. Country first. Party last.

    You don’t need to imagine. FBI already ruled no conflict of interest.

    There is some good news for Andrew McCabe, and I can't say I'm surprised, telling my significant other that this would likely happen when we heard the news about the FBI's former Deputy Director. My suggestion? "Heck, a Democratic member of Congress should simply hire McCabe for a couple of days." That's exactly what has been offered to McCabe. My understanding is that the end result of this act of "juvenile ******* behavior" by trump and Sessions is that it simply does one thing. It highlights just how rotten and childish trump and his underling, Sessions, are. McCabe will get his pension, regardless, in my humble opinion.

    (I don't use Twitter, so forgive the excess stuff, which I shrunk to make less noticeable)

    McCabe claims Comey gave him approval to leak. Comey denied it in congressional testimony.

    As is always the case, you are wrong. McCabe had no involvement in the Clinton email investigation until after the election was over. During the campaign, he had recused himself from any Virginia political corruption matter.

    Trump has trumped the system. He is already a 100% dictator, way worse than Putin or Kim.

    I know Trump is a corrupt *******, but please don't put him on the same level as someone like Kim who starves an entire nation, puts entire generations into concentration camps and has daily executions.
    Same with Putin who has been responsible for a lot of deaths and extreme measures vs citizens that spoke out about him.

    You are a fool if you do not see that is exactly what Trump is capable of if he were to get the power he desires

    That crap isn't better than what the right-wingers you are attacking here say, let's stay realistic.
    There's a dramatic difference between his petty tweets and systematically murdering your own citizens.

    What is still great about America is that we'll probably never know the answer to such speculation. Those in Russia and DPRK have their answers.
