I’m conflicted about this guy. He has a lot to answer for and about, but the odd thing is that the thing he is hung up on was a leak with which I agree. Apparently he was in charge of an investigation of the Clinton Foundation (CF) in election year 2016. The Wall Street Journal got wind that he was ordering that investigation shut down. He says he was ordered by the DOJ’s unnamed Principal Associate Deputy Attorney General (PADAG), likely Matthew Axelrod, to shut it down and had a “very dramatic” confrontation when he balked. To protect himself, McCabe then had Lisa Page leak his version to the WSJ. After that he repeatedly lied (sometimes under oath) about authorizing the leak even though he probably had the authority to leak.

The crux of the matter, which gets little mention, is that the Obama apparatus ordered an investigation of the Clinton Crime Family operation shut down in the middle of a Clinton campaign and McCabe resisted, if what McCabe contends is true.
