Celebrities react: FBI Dept Director Andrew McCabe is fired
Mr Sessions, on the off chance you are reading this, I sincerely hope you realize that you have now solidified your fate in history and for the rest of all time as the most corrupt representative of Americas law and order that ever lived!

On Friday March 16, 2018 Attorney General Jeff Sessions fired Dept Director Andrew McCabe two days before he was set to officially retire. McCabe had stepped down from his role a few weeks ago originally. Andrew McCabe released s scathing statement accusing the Trump administration of purposely lying and slandering his name and reputation as a 20+ year veteran of the FBI because McCabe testified that he was able to cooborate former Director Comey's testimony of events interacting with Trump.
McCabe becomes another casualty in the war between Democracy and Autocracy. Fortunately for US Autocracy is lead by a weak moron. And since a frightened GOP refuses to defend US, this November Democracy will come roaring back. VOTE!

Andrew McCabe’s first sentence: “I have been an FBI Special Agent for over 21 years. I spent half of that time investigating Russian Organized Crime as a street agent and Supervisor in New York City.” https://t.co/aGfPQIvCZl

It’s going to take YEARS to undo this wretched batch of shit. So everybody had better get used to talking to each other NOW. It’s the only way it’ll work out.

I would be the worst director in the world if 50% of the people I hired I either fired or quit. A director, like a President, needs to be able to accurately appraise others’ characters and talents to get the job done. Trump is incapable of this, and unfit to be President. https://t.co/JrkC5S3jLo

Gloat now, but you will be fired soon. And it’s not going to be done cowardly, as you’ve done to so many who’ve served you. There’s a storm gathering, Mr. President, and it’s going to wipe out you and your corrupt organization all the way down to the studs. https://t.co/I0UlNAlwxI

Andrew McCabe FIRED, a great day for the hard working men and women of the FBI - A great day for Democracy. Sanctimonious James Comey was his boss and made McCabe look like a choirboy. He knew all about the lies and corruption going on at the highest levels of the FBI!

It's not that hard for the Dems to flip Congress in November, all it takes it people going to the polls and voting. So far since Trvmp has been in office there have been 43 elections and Democrats have won 39 of them, like Conner Lamb in Pennsylvania last Tuesday, in a solidly GOP district that went for Trvmp by 20 points in 2016. So it can be done, all it takes is people getting off their asses and voting.
I can't believe people are starting a fund for him. He's a rich asshole who worked for the FBI.
I feel like McCabe was anticipating this though because that's quite a statement to release in the heat of the moment lol
In his coffin
i feel like march 16 will go down as the true beginning to the end of the trump presidency. he cant fire people to get out of this. and even if he manages to get mueller fired, mueller is too fucking smart to not already have a contingency plan in place for that exact scenario. trump is fucking with people a LOT smarter than he is and the people he has chosen to surround him on his staff are dumb as fuck allowing this to go on.
But seriously, it's so fucking frustrating living in this country. So many politicians are against Trump and his policies and actions, yet nothing can be done about it.
I really hope the Stormy Daniels thing will take him down at least a peg, but lbr even that's a stretch now. :/
