Buried in McCabes' response, rant against the President, is this telling statement, "In fact, this entire investigation stems from my efforts, fully authorized under FBI rules, to set the record straight on behalf of the Bureau, and to make clear that we were continuing an investigation that people in DOJ opposed. [emphasis added]

McCabe is referring to his role in the Clinton investigations. Hmmm people in the DOJ, during the Obama administrations tried to stop investigations into Clinton. Sounds like obstruction of justice. Those people have must be very nervous tonight.

I agree being married to a lady who dared to run for office as a democrat and accepting money from Clinton cronies, is a fatal flaw. However, it is not his only sin.

Not true he is only entitled to the money that he contributed into his pension, plus all of the interest that his investment earned.

He will end up with enough money to open a Subway Sandwich Shop or an Home and Auto Insurance business.

With Andrew McCabe's firing thing could get ugly bigly!!!

He also violated the Hatch Act when he actively campaigned for his wife.

The Dems will find him a nice cushy job as an executive in a Security firm or a law firm and he will keep his mouth shut.

Now, being fired AND suggesting that he is hiding information with his take everyone with him comment, he CLEARLY deserves NO PENSION. Nada, Zip.

And, he clearly deserves to be investigates/prosecuted/hung.

Take out the GARBAGE.

First it becomes very apparent that everything at that level is being orchestrated to not have anything improper. By operating this way slows things on one end, but makes convictions in court more solid if sought on the other end. Former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe's legal problems now may be a concern to everyone in the Obama administration. That being said a whole host of new pressures or ones increased will soon be visible. The next big story I can not guess, putting high level hacks directly into the frying pan is uncharted territory that may not yield what we normally would expect.

Lots of speculation about pensions here. Does anyone have any actual experience with the federal program?

A lot of the articles I have seen say that the cut off date being discussed is when his pension will be "fully" vested. Many pension plans have partial vesting after various years of service. I worked for one company where a partial pension vested after 5 years.

Given the generous benefits I have seen for federal employees, I would guess that McCabe has a partial pension vested.
