Before he was fired,
Andrew McCabe lied
at least four times to the
Department of Justice and FBI,
including two times under oath
with Inspector General
Michael Horowitz,
according to Rep. Jim Jordan
(R-OH):
Jordan said:
“McCabe didn’t lie just once,
he lied four times.
He lied to James Comey.
He lied to the Office
of Professional Responsibility,
and he lied twice under oath
to the Inspector General."
"Andrew McCabe,
former FBI Deputy Director,
is also the "Andy" mentioned
in the text messages between
the FBI's Peter Strzok and
Lisa Page, when they were talking
about the "insurance policy" to
drive Trump out of office
if he became President"
"Four times McCabe lied
about leaking information
to the Wall Street Journal.”
McCabe authorized
an FBI spokesman
and an FBI attorney
to leak to Devlin Barrett,
of the Wall St. Journal,
before the 2016 election,
( at a time when McCabe
was under fire for his wife,
who while running for a state
office, took a huge $467,500
campaign contribution
from Clinton proxy pal,
Terry McAuliffe ).
McCabe's leak led to this
Wall Street Journal story
that a Clinton Foundation
investigation was ongoing:
"New details show that
senior law-enforcement officials
repeatedly voiced skepticism
of the strength of the evidence
in a bureau investigation
of the Clinton Foundation,
sought to condense what was
at times a sprawling
cross-country effort, and,
according to some people
familiar with the matter,
told agents to limit their
pursuit of the case."
"The probe of the foundation
began more than a year ago
to determine whether
financial crimes or influence
peddling occurred
related to the charity."
McCabe most likely leaked
to the WSJ to combat rumors
that the Clinton's bribed him
(through a huge donation
to his wife's political campaign)
to back off the Clinton Foundation
investigation.
The FBI also had evidence
from undercover informant
William D. Campbell,
who recently told
Congressional investigators
that he collected smoking gun
evidence of Russia
routing millions of dollars
towards a Clinton charity
in advance of Clinton's
State Department approving
the Uranium One deal.
McCabe's FBI team,
under FBI Director Comey,
heavily altered the language
of the FBI's official conclusion
concerning Hillary Clinton's
mishandling of classified information
-- "decriminalizing" her conduct,
starting with a first draft
written by Comey in April 2016,
or early May 2016, before
17 planned FBI interviews,
including the Hillary Clinton interview !
On May 6, FBI Deputy Director McCabe
forwarded the Comey draft statement
to other senior FBI employees,
including Peter Strzok, E.W. Priestap,
Jonathan Moffa, and an employee
on the Office of General Counsel,
whose name has been redacted.
Precise dates of the edits,
and identities of the editors,
are not apparent from
the documents.
When McCabe was fired,
Attorney General Jeff Sessions
said that McCabe had:
"made an unauthorized disclosure
to the news media and lacked candor
- including under oath
- on multiple occasions."
