Less than a week after Andrew McCabe opened an obstruction of justice investigation into the President in May 2017, the Washington Post knew about it

Just in case you were wondering if the FBI was leaking law enforcement sensitive information like a sieve
2017 Timeline:

—May 9: Comey fired

—May 11/12: McCabe opens obstruction case on POTUS

—May 17: Mueller appointed

—May 18: **WaPo aware POTUS is focus of investigation**
judicialwatch.org/wp-content/upl…

—Jun 14: WaPo publicly reports obstruction investigation
washingtonpost.com/world/national…
Note: After DAG Rosenstein was made aware WaPo somehow knew about the most sensitive FBI investigation in the entire country, he doesn't appear to have launched any kind of probe into how that got leaked

And to be clear: no issue with reporters here, the leakers are the issue

Grenell to Acting DNI 🔥🔥🔥 nytimes.com/2020/02/19/us/…
Germany exhales a sigh of relief, John Brennan starts hyperventilating into a brown paper bag
Yeah because tapping a quietly disloyal person would make more sense 🤦🏻‍♂️

Imagine if DOJ had investigated McCabe for two years & at the end of it declined to charge him criminally but still wrote a report detailing all the bad things he’d ever said, done or thought about doing & then claimed the report “does not exonerate” him & hinted he be impeached
Then imagine that the “crime” he was being investigated for never even happened, was largely based on a fake dossier funded by his political opponents and McCabe’s attempts to clear his name were then claimed as evidence of “obstruction” despite being legally incoherent
Boy that’d sure be a “disgrace”. Can’t have that. Sounds very politicized

Yet that’s what McCabe helped to do to Trump and many in his orbit

If Durham delivers nothing given him taking a victory lap on this expect the anger to be volcanic

Deputy AG #RodRosenstein removed then-Acting @FBI Director #AndrewMcCabe from the #Russia investigation in May 2017 upon appointing #SpecialCounsel #RobertMueller to take over the probe, according to a statement by @TheJusticeDept. (Read thread ⤵️)
theepochtimes.com/rosenstein-rem…
“[Rosenstein] in fact appointed…Robert Mueller, and directed that Mr. McCabe be removed from any participation in that investigation,” a DOJ spokesperson said.

The revelation is significant because, days before being removed, #McCabe opened an obstruction of justice…
…investigation into President Trump following the firing of then-FBI Director James @Comey. Just 5 days prior to this, he told the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence that he was not aware of any effort by the Trump administration to impede the @FBI’s #Russia probe.

I was asked to revisit my White House bugging threads this morning! So I will discuss them in this thread. Jeff @themarketswork had a valuable article yesterday on Lisa Page's testimony to Congress based upon transcripts he was provided. theepochtimes.com/transcripts-of…
There is some info in her testimony that would indicate that CIA Director John Brennan was coordinating the information provided to FBI so it would trigger an investigation of Carter Page & the Trump Campaign. Page swears they all believed it was true but never verified it.
As always, the plotters responded with an article in the NYT's but as they had no advanced warning of Jeff's article they couldn't get the first spin on the story! They appear to be trying to get ahead of confirmation that they bugged the White House. nytimes.com/2019/01/11/us/…

"Then-acting FBI Director Andrew McCabe opened an obstruction of justice investigation into Trump days after Comey's firing, sources say"

What a complete and total maniac, as acting director of the FBI to open an investigation of the President for that

cnn.com/2018/12/06/pol…
"Rosenstein and top FBI officials viewed Trump as a leader who needed to be reined in..."

"They discussed a range of options, including the idea of Rosenstein wearing a wire while speaking with Trump..."

lol McCabe is trying to throw Rod Rosenstein under the bus again.
"The obstruction probe was an idea the FBI had previously considered, but it didn't start until after Comey was fired."

wait WHAT!?

They were going to open an obstruction of justice investigation into President Trump even BEFORE Comey was fired? What!?
