McCabe's Memory Was Foggy, His Testimony Conflicted With Other Witnesses
2017-12-21
[PJ] Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe's closed-door interview with House Intelligence Committee investigators on Tuesday did not go well for him, Fox News' James Rosen reported in an exclusive on Wednesday.

According to congressional sources, McCabe's answers during his seven-hour interrogation conflicted with the testimony of previous witnesses, prompting one House investigator to tell Fox News, "It’s hard to know who’s telling us the truth."

The discrepancies have spurred Republican majority staff of the intel committee to issue fresh subpoenas next week for other Justice Department and FBI personnel.

Fox News reports that those personnel are likely to be "demoted DOJ official Bruce G. Ohr and FBI General Counsel James A. Baker, who accompanied McCabe, along with other lawyers, to Tuesday’s HPSCI session." Ohr -- whose wife Nellie worked for Fusion GPS through the summer and fall of 2016 -- is set to appear before the Senate Intelligence Committee later this week, as well.

#8  Those IM's from Strzok to his hussy clearly identify McCabe as the leader of the cabal working on a palace coup.

You don't suppose that any of those IM's came up in discussion today?

#7  "Foggy", eh? Perhaps the Mueller Standard of Perjury should be invoked and McCabe should be given an immediate Perp Walk?

#6  Andy, please think of Jill. I hope you realize we'd really rather not go there unless we are forced to. Now, be a good chap and give us a hand with this tawdry matter won't you ?

#5  OK, McCabe, here's the deal: You give us the straight story and you get five years at Leavenworth instead of ten.

#4  McCabe claimed he could not recall – despite the reported existence of documents with McCabe’s own signature on them establishing his knowledge of the dossier’s financing and provenance.

This statement is very damning--McCabe invokes the Hillary defense? He's got to be eyeball deep in this and lying. McCabe is the number 2 guy at the FBI, he had to know what's going on with this and many other things under investigation as well.

McCabe has been asked to come back today. What's it going to take to refresh his memory and peel this onion of corruption?

Meanwhile the Dems are still trying to breathe life into the dead corpse of a feeble Trump-Russia collusion investigation. Get on with the burial of this stinking corpse. Have a little dignity and decorum. Quit $hitting in your pants and clean yourselves up.

#2  "It’s hard to know who’s telling us the truth."

Given the circumstances, nobody.

#1  Comey appears to have the same problem. Perhaps someone should check the water cooler. Surely Bruce and Nellie Ohr can give us the straight skinny.
