    Trump is irrelevant to this. This was an internal FBI matter and Trump was not really in the decision making process. This was between the FBI, the Inspector General, the Attorney General (who took no action until the FBI and IG reached their conclusions and made their recommendations), and McCabe.

    Of course trump is vindictive thats obvious, but the question is was it obvious to you that Obama was vindictive as was his DOJ ?
    Every politician is vindictive in one way or another.

    Personally I would much rather have a Trump who tells you right up front and in tweets what he thinks than have a snake like obama who grins while he fills you full of venom

    Lots to be said in favor of honest vindictive politicians versus snakes.

    Assuming that both the FBI's internal investigation and the AG's independent investigation reached the proper conclusion and McCabe did in fact lie, how is that different from the actions of Scooter Libby, who was sentenced to prison for the same thing? He was sentenced to 30 months in prison for lying.
    McCabe, a law enforcement officer, should be held to the same or even higher standard.
    Higher standard in my book. The Spider-Man Rule applies: With great power comes great responsibility. McCabe abused his powers and he deserves to be punished severely for it.

    There's no "if" about it. He was outed by an internal FBI investigation. No trial needed.

    The clueless left , apparently, fail to grasp that McCabe's firing was INTENDED TO BE PUNITIVE.

    McCabe was a civil servant. He's not going to lose his pension. This pension denial talk is just more dishonesty in reporting

    Wrong again, sweetheart. He may get part of it, but he failed to qualify for full pension. If it was up to me, he wouldn't get one $#@!ing red cent from the taxpayers he screwed over with his corruption.

    Are you saying he'll win on appeal and regain his full pension? That you think the OPR and OIG are wrong? Fascinating!
