New Acting FBI Director Andrew McCabe acknowledged for the first time in public testimony Thursday that some agents were angry with the 2016 decision not to prosecute Hillary Clinton – while also defending ousted Director James Comey’s overall standing at the bureau.


quote:

I think morale's always been good, but there were folks within our agency that were frustrated with the outcome of the Hillary Clinton case and some of those folks were very vocal about those concerns,” McCabe testified.

McCabe’s comments at the Senate Intelligence Committee hearing mark the first public recognition from the FBI that some agents were angry at the decision not to prosecute.



So, here we have not talking heads or political savants; but the actual people that gathered the EVIDENCE that HRC broke the law being pissed that she isn't charged.

The is admitted by a Clinton ally mind you.

Let's see you spin this bootlickers.....

We'll be told that his statement is just his opinion. Proof of his opinion is adamant to prove his opinion is truth.

He has strong ties to one of the Clinton's best pals.

FBI acting director Andrew McCabe has strong ties to Clinton ally Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe.

Until the administration finds this director, a man strongly connected to the Democratic Party will be in charge. The Democratic Virginia governor’s PAC donated $467,500 to McCabe’s wife Jill McCabe’s 2015 state Senate campaign. The Virginia Democratic Party also spent a little over $200,000 on the campaign.

The now-acting FBI director’s wife lost the campaign to the Republican incumbent. After the Wall Street Journal reported these findings, then-candidate Trump said, “We’ve never had a thing like this in the history of this country.”

At the time, McCabe was leading the probe into Hillary Clinton’s use of a private server.

Something that the MSM refuses to admit. They make it sound as if Trump is Hitler because he doesn't want McCabe being interim director. They never mention McCabe's wife running for a Democratic seat and getting money from Clinton PACs.

I think there is some confusion on this board by the resident liberal loonies about who McCabe actually is. He is the register democrat in the FBI that led the investigation into hillary clinton. Right before the investigation, his wife ran for a state senate seat in Virginia and received $675,000 from Terry McAuliffe's SuperPAC. McAuliffe is also under a federal investigation.

Point is, McCabe is at best independent of Trump in all senses, at worst he is a dem shill, at the same time he is completely destroying the left's narrative that the Trump administration is lying about the motives for firing Comey.

Just like in the other thread, where McCabe gave his opinion, and you called it "factual." Funny how your comments don't have to meet the standards you require of others.

The democrat second in charge (Warner) today (in the first part of the hearing) was muh Russians. You could just feel the muh Russians crap was BS.

Warner made McCabe (under investigation for taking HRC bribe money) promise under oath he would inform him directly and immediately if Trump tried to hinder muh Russians investigation. The democrats were partisan the pubs that were GOPe slide by it. But their real concern was NKorea.

I don't see where this is what was implied. He said SOME with the agency were frustrated with the decision and very vocal about it.

The FBI is a huge agency. It's to be expected there are often differences of opinion. Not really earth shattering news.

Funny how you are comparing two things that are completely different. One involves a group and extrapolating the opinions of some to represent the entire group. The other involves individuals. Eat a dick.

Nope, try again. Both are extrapolating the opinions of some to represent the entire group. You criticized one for making the implication that some represented all, and called the other factual.

Of course this means that Comey committed perjury when he testified under oath that "[the decision not to prosecute] was unanimous " and " it wasn't even close."

Comey was a dead man walking. He was working for a Dem Administration, investigating a Democratic Candidate. If he prosecutes her, Obama fires him, or at LEAST makes life hard for him. If he investigates aggressively, but does not charge her, she fires him if she is elected. (As most people thought she would be) If he does not prosecute and she loses, then Trump fires him. He was in a no-win situation trying to balance an appointed job in the middle of regime change.
