It's ABOUT TIME....



DOJ inspector general has referred McCabe case to federal prosecutors for possible charges



Federal prosecutors in Washington have been asked by the Justice Department (http://abcnews.go.com/topics/news/us/justice-department.htm)’s inspector general to determine whether the FBI (http://abcnews.go.com/topics/news/us/federal-bureau-of-investigation.htm)’s former deputy director, Andrew McCabe, should be charged for allegedly “lacking candor” on multiple occasions with internal investigators and with then-FBI director James Comey (http://abcnews.go.com/topics/news/whitehouse/james-b.-comey.htm), according to a source familiar with the matter.
In a report made public by lawmakers last week, Inspector General Michael Horowitz concluded that McCabe repeatedly misled investigators looking into how sensitive investigative information ended up on in a national newspaper in the weeks before the 2016 presidential election (http://abcnews.go.com/topics/news/elections/presidential-election.htm).

Horowitz’s office then referred the matter to the U.S. Attorney’s office in Washington, indicating Horowitz believes McCabe committed a federal crime (http://abcnews.go.com/topics/news/crime.htm) with his actions. It’s unclear exactly when the referral was made.


The inspector general began investigating McCabe in August 2017, after the FBI’s Inspection Division told the inspector general’s office that the deputy director may have lacked candor when questioned about his role in disclosing sensitive information to a reporter.
In its report released Friday, the inspector general’s office said McCabe “lacked candor” in July 2017 when he told investigators – under oath – “that he was not aware of [the FBI attorney] having been authorized to speak to reporters around October 30,” and he “lacked candor” again four months later when he acknowledged authorizing the disclosure but “stated that he told Comey on October 31, 2016, that he had authorized the disclosure to the WSJ.”

Trump should still fire Rosenstein for doing that end run around Sessions. Getting the DOJ and FBI to deal with this now and knowing how long it takes them to move on things. Some of this will be coming out during Mid Terms. Which wont help the Demos with their Elites making the news.

So what goes around comes around. Make sure the leftness starts learning that concept.

McCabe has responded.


McCabe: The Inspector General is a Joke and There's No Way I'm Getting Prosecuted .....



Fired Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe is quite confident the DOJ Inspector General's referral Thursday to the U.S. Attorney for his criminal prosecution is going nowhere.


"We were advised of the referral within the past few weeks. Although we believe the referral is unjustified, the standard for an IG referral is very low," McCabe's attorney released in a statement Thursday afternoon. "We have already met with staff members from the U.S. Attorney’s Office. We are confident that, unless there is inappropriate pressure from high levels of the Administration, the U.S. Attorney’s Office will conclude that it should decline to prosecute."


The U.S. Attorney for Washington D.C., who will ultimately decide if McCabe should be prosecuted for lying under oath multiple times to FBI agents and inspector general investigators, is Jessie Liu. More on her background (https://www.justice.gov/usao-dc/meet-us-attorney): ......snip~

Isn't it justice that all BS is coming out and the people driving the BS are getting more and more n the cross hairs of the legal system? Listening to Comey day over day shows you what a flaky guy he really is as well. I believe McCabe 100% they all knew what was leaked and all agreed. Comey says "McCabe can lie because he is a good guy." Trump can't lie because I don't like him. Genius you idiot!

This is one of the worst attacks on our democracy in history. The bad thing is that entire administration knew about all of this going on. Look at all the actions 3 weeks leading up to admin change what was done by the Obama admin. It was all done because they knew his illegal executive order (legislating) was going to be gone in a pen swipe. They NEVER thought Trump would be elected and were scrambling to undermine to save their lack of effort on passing actual legislation. This is pretty much the summary.

Comey and the other Intel Agencies on 3/30/17 called a meeting to brief the intel committee. They told them they had info they were checking out that is real problematic (Dossier). NEVER mentioning again it was salacious shit from a political opponent. Nunes said it was so serious sounding they were floored by the meeting. Comey told them what they had was all from Russia intel and a British spy we had.(Also remember that's when the dems were referring serious shit coming out! They were lied to as well). Nunes said if they had told the entire story of the source everyone would have walked out laughing at them knowing it was likely a steaming pile of campaign dirt. So they were dishonest about it, most likely just like they were at the FISA court.

At some point in time you dems need to start being honest on this board stop rooting for this bad shit you are right now. This is as wrong as the day is long! This was about undermining a President that isn't beholden to a bunch of handlers that will say what he wants and undo your executive orders. Now you are hoping for some technicality thru the law to bail you out of all this crap.

These are the facts and are indisputable. Sickening!

Quite a reflection on the lack of legal understanding when the DOJ refers it for "Possible charges". Seems as though they don't quite have a case here, but are hoping a Trump appointed federal prosecutor will throw aside the rule of law and pretend there is one.

There's nothing flaky about Comey. He's told the truth, the same information given, throughout all this. Trump has changed his mind on WHY he fired Comey at least three times. No, Comey did a nice job of showing he's telling the truth.

The legal definition...
The third charge in the employee’s removal action was Lack of Candor, wherein the agency alleged that the employee displayed a lack of candor during an investigative interview. The Board noted that lack of candor and “falsification,” two common charges, are distinct from one another. As the Board explained, “[w]hereas falsification involves an affirmative misrepresentation and requires intent to deceive, lack of candor, by contrast, is a broader and more flexible concept whose contours and elements depend on the particular context and conduct involved.” The Board observed that lack of candor “need not involve an affirmative misrepresentation, but may involve a failure to disclose something that, in the circumstances, should have been disclosed to make the statement accurate and complete.” However, the Board noted, to constitute lack of candor, the misrepresentation or omission must be made knowingly.

He deliberately misrepresented the facts. In Leftgoofyworld, apparently, that's not "lying".

So, if your wife fails to inform you that the child she is having is not yours, she isn't "lying" to you, in Leftgoofyspeak.

Got it.

Keep it up...it's fun watching you trying to dance around the ugly truth...again.

Fired, Proven Liar: I May Sue Trump for Defamation and Wrongful Termination, You Know.....


It's a very dumb day in Washington, DC. The attorney for fired Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe is reportedly threatening (http://thehill.com/homenews/administration/384152-mccabe-to-sue-trump-admin-for-defamation-wrongful-termination) to file a lawsuit against the Trump administration over "defamation" and the supposedly wrongful termination of his client's employment at the Bureau. This would have been an audacious, long-shot maneuver a few weeks ago, but based on (https://townhall.com/tipsheet/guybenson/2018/03/19/reminder-mccabe-was-fired-on-the-recommendation-of-fbi-ethics-office-based-on-nonpartisan-inspector-generals-finding-n2462159) what we've learned (https://townhall.com/tipsheet/katiepavlich/2018/04/13/breaking-inspector-general-report-torches-andrew-mccane-n2470734) in recent days (https://townhall.com/tipsheet/mattvespa/2018/04/19/its-official-doj-ig-refers-lyin-mccabe-to-federal-prosecutor-for-possible-crim-n2472590), it looks a lot more like a totally ludicrous stunt. I suppose that once you've determined that your best play is to cast yourself as a martyr, you've got to see the charade through (https://www.axios.com/andrew-mccabe-fbi-james-comey-civil-lawsuit-trump-398b0c8a-3634-43bb-8498-29b536923cb8.html) to the bitter end:


Hey, maybe McCabe figures -- probably correctly -- that he can raise even more money (https://townhall.com/tipsheet/guybenson/2018/04/02/report-mccabe-also-lied-to-comey-about-his-leaking-n2466791) from liberals by promising to use their cash to sue Trump. The Spite Wars (https://hotair.com/archives/2018/04/02/andrew-mccabe-now-youve-given-half-million-dollars-think-can-shut-gofundme-page/) are a source of bottomless motivation, it seems. Sure, Trump has hurled insults at McCabe on Twitter for many months, but the idea that a public figure like McCabe would win a libel or slander judgment (proving "actual malice (https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/defamation)" is hard to do) against the president is, let's just say, far-fetched. Incidentally, might Trump decide to abandon his dumb musings (https://www.nytimes.com/2018/01/10/business/media/trump-libel-laws.html) about changing libel laws if he comes to learn that the existing legal standards protect...him, as much as anybody? As for the "wrongful termination" claim, that would take real cojones. The Justice Department's nonpartisan Inspector General has determined (https://townhall.com/tipsheet/guybenson/2018/03/19/reminder-mccabe-was-fired-on-the-recommendation-of-fbi-ethics-office-based-on-nonpartisan-inspector-generals-finding-n2462159) that McCabe wrongfully leaked information to the press in his capacity has a high-ranking FBI official, then lied about that leak on at least four occasions, including to a number of federal investigators. He did so "knowingly and intentionally (http://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2018/04/ig-has-referred-mccabe-for-possible-prosecution.php)" in at least one case, according to the IG report.

As the Board explained, “[w]hereas falsification involves an affirmative misrepresentation and requires intent to deceive, lack of candor, by contrast, is a broader and more flexible concept whose contours and elements depend on the particular context and conduct involved.” The Board observed that lack of candor “need not involve an affirmative misrepresentation, but may involve a failure to disclose something that, in the circumstances, should have been disclosed to make the statement accurate and complete.” However, the Board noted, to constitute lack of candor, the misrepresentation or omission must be made knowingly.

He deliberately misrepresented the facts. In Leftgoofyworld, apparently, that's not "lying".

So, if your wife fails to inform you that the child she is having is not yours, she isn't "lying" to you, in Leftgoofyspeak.

Got it.

Der....
Keep it up...it's fun watching you trying to dance around the ugly truth...again.

is like the general article in the military. the one they always add which says and just because we want to. That's not a crime. It's a catch all for someone they can't convict otherwise.

Even some in the Lame Stream reported McCabe lied. They didn't use the terminology lacked candor. Since they knew that meant lied.

Leave it to leftists to play on terminology.

Clearly if he would have lied, they would have said that.

But if all they are saying is he "lacked candor", well, you don't have to lack prosecutorial powers to know that's a bogus and rather junior high school girl infighting term.
The IG are not prosecutors. Likely it is just procedure to use lack candor as opposed to lies. Most people don't see a difference in the terms.

He was referred to the USAG who CAN prosecute, for withholding the facts on numerous occasions; if you want to keep pretending that that is not lying...go ahead.

Wrong. Read what I already provided. There is "falsification" which is knowingly providing UNTRUE data as fact, and there is LACK OF CANDOR, which is deliberately withholding the facts; BOTH are " LYING".

One has NOTHING to do with the other. McCabe is a life long republican. The democrats are losing their base to liberals and they need money. The DNC did this after Nixon was charged with breaking into their headquarters. don't you think these guys should pay?

Nixon did not, nor was he charged with breaking into DNC HQ. People associated with him did, and if you read seriously about it, it seems as if they were trying to get caught. The group included some serious spies. Nixon got caught up in the cover up.

Uh-huh..sure he is. Please provide his voter registration.

His wife got nearly $1 million from longtime Clintonista Terry McCauliff for her campaign AS A DEMOCRAT.

Make up some more nonsense.

Were you court martialed under Art. 134?

It does not mean nothing. It is used to incorporate laws not codified in the UCMJ.

That is why terminology should be made simple for the leftness. Truly it should not be made more difficult, or wherein the left can make more out of whats there. Keep it nice and simple so there is no confusion. As in this case......The IG should have just came out with it straight forward.


McCabe knowingly lied to investigators. Fuck all that BS about lacked candor. The Mope lied. Was lying. Knowingly lying to investigators that were questioning him.


Leftists like to use big words. Prime example is Eric Dyson. Who got chased off the De Paul Campus by bruthas who mocked his ass for using terminology that is about a play with headgames. Rather than telling it like it is.

As a lawyer, when I hear lack of candor it is describing a lie. There is no issue here.

It seems it is an issue for leftists. As they have trouble understanding that lack of candor means lying. I think they just have a filtering problem.
