Andrew McCabe should be facing prison time right now, but alas, we don’t live in a country where justice is blind. So instead, he’s going on CNN — even after admitting he committed crimes — and whining about how unfair the DOJ was in their investigation of him. This is the same guy who helped trash Michael Flynn’s life over a supposed lie that neither Flynn nor the agents interviewing him thought was a lie.
Here’s McCabe on CNN clutching his pearls with faux indignation.
Andrew McCabe: “As glad as I am that the DoJ and the DC attorney’s office finally decided to do the right thing today, it’s an absolute disgrace that they took 2 years and put my family through this experience for two years before they finally drew the obvious conclusion." pic.twitter.com/T8x7drbukU

Yes, the investigation into McCabe was an absolute disgrace, but mostly because it ended with him not in handcuffs. Meanwhile, McCabe and his cohorts did far, far worse to others while proclaiming their righteousness. This is what having no shame looks like.
But instead of just ranting, I’ll let Undercover Huber lay it out in the most concise way possible.
Imagine if DOJ had investigated McCabe for two years & at the end of it declined to charge him criminally but still wrote a report detailing all the bad things he’d ever said, done or thought about doing & then claimed the report “does not exonerate” him & hinted he be impeached

Boy that’d sure be a “disgrace”. Can’t have that. Sounds very politicized
Yet that’s what McCabe helped to do to Trump and many in his orbit
If Durham delivers nothing given him taking a victory lap on this expect the anger to be volcanic

McCabe isn’t an idiot. He knows exactly what he did and he knows exactly how hypocritical it is for him to now cry foul after he’s destroyed numerous lives in pursuit of the same crimes he committed himself. But like most bureaucrats, McCabe lacks the ability to feel shame and believes himself to be above accountability. Elections? Presidents? Laws? None of that applies to these people. They are a law unto themselves and continue to flaunt it in the faces of Americans who are wondering what the heck our justice system even stands for at this point.
The damage done to these institutions is likely irreversible. It’s not Donald Trump’s fault. It’s not Bill Barr’s fault. It’s McCabe, Comey, etc. who have absolutely destroyed the credibility of federal law enforcement and that will be their legacy. No amount of CNN hits is going to change that.
