The takeaway seems to be that one should not lie to one’s boss, the INSD, and the OIG.
Affirmative. There seems to have been an element of CYA involved.
Doesn’t change that Trump wanted him gone anyway for having the audacity to be involved with the collusion investigation, but he gave our unbeloved Prez and AG the weapon to shoot him with.
Looks like McCabe wasn’t truthful to about a dozen people.
The lesson here is that Trump has nothing to worry about; he’s lied to like 320 million.
Curious whether anyone has read his point-by-point rebuttal. It’s difficult for me to understand the back-and-forth; I feel like I lack a sufficiently solid understanding of the legal principles and bureaucratic history and so forth involved to make a fair judgment. Do others, with greater background (note that I’m not saying “with greater partisan venom”), have insight here?
