On November 22, The Daily Caller<\/a> posted an article about a recent statement by Andrew McCabe. As I am sure you remember, former FBI Director McCabe was at the heart of the crossfire hurricane scandal and other actions used by the deep state to cripple the first term of President Trump. Frankly, if justice were bi-partisan, Andrew McCabe would be in jail at the very least. However, he still considers himself relevant.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

Former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe expressed concern on Thursday that President-elect Donald Trump could name Kash Patel as FBI director.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Patel and former Republican Rep. Mike Rogers of Michigan are the frontrunners<\/a> to replace FBI Director Christopher Wray, who Trump appointed<\/a> in 2017 after firing then-FBI Director James Comey. McCabe expressed nervousness about Trump potentially choosing Patel, a former Trump administration official, as Wray\u2019s replacement, saying Patel would be more dangerous as the agency\u2019s number two person.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cNo part of the FBI\u2019s mission is safe with Kash Patel in any position of leadership in the FBI and certainly not in the deputy director\u2019s job. So just as a\u2026 as an example, the deputy director job in the FBI is unique because, of course, the director is a political appointee and the and the deputy director is typically a senior FBI agent, somebody who spent their entire career learning about the FBI, understanding its people and doing its work. So the deputy director actually runs the FBI on a day to day basis,\u201d McCabe told CNN host Kaitlan Collins. \u201cYou\u2019re essentially the chief operating officer.\u201d\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

The article notes:<\/p>\n

McCabe was fired<\/a> as deputy director of the FBI in 2018 following an inspector general\u2019s report<\/a> that accused him of lying about leaks to the media, but the firing was reversed<\/a> in 2021 following a legal settlement after President Joe Biden took office.<\/strong><\/p>\n

If McCabe is against the appointment of Kash Patel, then I support the appointment!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
