Where do you take any evidence from that that addresses the presumed allegations?

Maybe I too hastily replied. The innuendo for his firing had been that he leaked to the press damaging information. McCabe seems to refute that head on. I am not sure how they're going to justify his firing, but so far no evidence of any wrongdoing. No?

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.

You've read the IG Report? You mean Jeff Sessions is leaking now too?

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
