It's entirely possible that these two things are true: (a) the firing of McCabe was justified based on McCabe's conduct; (b) Sessions would not have fired McCabe without pressure from Trump designed to fuel a false narrative of Trump's innocence.
-
The multiple lies, including "under oath" were the reasons for the firing, not the talking to the press. McCabe focused on the talking to the press in his statement to cloud the issue and divert you from the lying.

HELLO? Sessions released a statement saying both the OPR and OIG concluded that McCabe had made "an unauthorized disclosure to the news media" and "lacked candor — including under oath — on multiple occasions." (Lacked Candor is FBI speak for lying)
-
Lacked candor is being less than honest. I look forward to the actual details, particularly given that Jeff Sessions has ... outright lied ... under oath.
-
Yes...thank you...being less than honest is exactly why he was fired. They fire you at FBI if you aren't honest, especially when you do it under oath. Play with words all you want - lying, concealment, less than honest...they get you the same consequences at FBI
-
Yes. You seem to be confusing being less than honest with lying, and your case on Comey is weak. I agree McCabe's firing may be merited on the lack candor ground, already wrote that, tho await the IG Report.
-
McCabe is #2 at the FBI - he damn well knew the rules. I have no sympathy. It's sad when it happens to someone at the end of their career...but McCabe made his own mess
-
I think you misunderstand my stance.

I don't need to read the IG Report myself to understand what Sessions said.
