 IG: McCabe ‘Does Not Recall’ Meeting in His Office Where Page Argued There’s ‘No Way’ Trump’s Elected

(CNSNews.com) - Department of Justice Inspector General Michael Horowitz testified in the Senate Judiciary Committee toda [1]y that then-FBI Deputy Director Andy McCabe said he did “not recall” whether he was at an August 2016 meeting allegedly held in his own office--that included his then-counsel Lisa Page and then-FBI Deputy Assistant Director Peter Strzok--in which Page, according to a text message by Strzok, argued “there’s no way he [Trump] gets elected.”

Both Page and Strzok had been involved in the Clinton email investigation and both were at the time of the August meeting involved in the investigation of Russian involvement in the presidential election.

At today’s hearing, after saying that it was the IG’s understanding that the meeting was in McCabe’s office, Horowitz said: “I’ll be clear, I can’t speak to whether McCabe, Mr. McCabe, was there or not.”
