DOJ: Inspector General Examining Whether McCabe Was Promised Promotion to FBI Director by Hillary Clinton
Posted on March 20, 2018 by Investigative Bureau
Andrew McCabe may have revealed to his inner circle an inside plan to replace his friend James Comey as FBI director if and when Hillary Clinton was elected president of the United States, according to top officials in the Justice Department.
The Inspector General, who is combing McCabe’s communications while he was deputy director of the FBI during the 2016 presidential election, is looking at many parallel revelations from McCabe’s discussions in emails and text messages, DOJ sources said.
There was at least talk of a FBI promotion, one DOJ source said.
The Inspector General is independent and conducts its investigation without direct DOJ oversight or meddling. When asked how the DOJ personnel know specifically what the IG was probing about McCabe’s tenure at the FBI — beyond what the IG has already published about its focus — one source said “we hear things just like you, but we have to wait for all the details.â€
If those discussions about a promotion to FBI director with co-workers and McCabe’s inner circle were anything more than bravado, that certainly is troubling.
