As news and excited reactions pour down the collective American brainstem in a semi-rigorous attempt to make sense of Andrew McCabe‘s firing, one liberal legal expert and constitutional law professor is simply not there for partisan response efforts.

Instead, it appears McCabe’s ouster was in line with the law and he should probably be thankful he’s not facing criminal charges for the behavior that led to said ouster.

George Washington University School of Law Professor Jonathan Turley predicted McCabe’s firing some time ago. Turley discussed the firing today in an interview with CNN‘s Michael Smerconish.

If people are going to view Turley as the expert on matters revolving around McCabe and the Mueller investigation, keep in mind he thought back in May 2017 this would be helpful for the Trump administration.  He also said the appointment of a special counsel was unnecessary until the firing of Comey made it inevitable.


Turley said that until Mueller was named, President Trump could not fully clear his name in the face of ongoing leaks and allegations.

The appointment of a special counsel was "almost inevitable when the Comey memo hit," Turley said.

Thusfar, as evidenced of the long long trail of criminal corruption, lies, treason and worse that have stunk up the highest offices and agencies in the land since at least Clinton, the guilty always get a free pass from every single institution designed and intended to keep justice -  and the guilty get a ticket to even higher office and power.

Color my cynical and jaded.

I am not going to believe ANY of these creatures get prison time until I see them in orange jumpsuits being led to their cells.

I personally think that every creature in DC understands the depth of the corruption, rot and treason - and they must know that to dig it up and toss it out - will split and collapse the entire government itself.  So no one is going to take things to that level.  Our culture and society has already demonstrated that it does not matter what truth and evidence exists in any travesty of justice (Michael Brown anyone?) the politicization of any attempt to bring justice will result in stoked upheaval and sabotage.

Firing McCabe is likely the limit of where they will go.  But do not expect to see a criminal trial.  Not gonna happen in my estimation.

According to Forbes this is hardly going to graze his pension either.

From what I gathered in the article and accompanying CNN piece was that he still gets a pension, just not as early.  Instead of receiving early benefits at 50, he'll have to wait between 7-12 years before receiving them, missing out on $500K, or more.

Thank you for bringing this up!  As far as I can tell, Jonathan Turley is perhaps a couple of steps above Jay Sekulow.

This is one major reason to take everything Q says with a dump truck full of salt.

From Watergate AG Mitchell, Halderman, Erlichman, Dean and others served time in prison.

I'm already taking people who say Obama and Clinton are innocent of wrongdoing with a dump truck load of salt.

I'm not so sure that I agree that draining the swamp of all the swamp creatures and punishing those for all their involvement in the corruption and scandals would collapse the government. I see it as the longer we  wait to hold those accountable and responsible the greater the risk that they will collapse the government. 

Do I have hope that anyone (namely Clinton, Bammy, Holder, Comey, McCabe, etc.,) will go to prison?  No. Not at all.

If he is guilty of a crime then he should go to prison.  Looks to me like a big old reality television show where people can take sides based on sketchy details made to tantalize the watchers.  Then the next series comes on the scene and this show is over.  A distant memory.
