McCarthy promises accountability as Barr reviews IG’s FISA report: ‘The closest we’ve ever seen to a coup’
By Ronn Blitzer | Fox News

    House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., promised that guilty parties will be held accountable after Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz releases his report on the FBI's alleged abuse of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) in the Russia investigation, and predicted that former bureau leaders James Comey and Andrew McCabe will face criminal charges after what he described as an attempted "coup" to take down President Trump.

The report will address concerns with whether or not the FBI acted improperly in obtaining a FISA warrant to monitor former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page in the early stages of their investigation of Russian election interference and possible Trump campaign connections. The Inspector General's office has already turned over a draft of its findings to Attorney General Bill Barr, and a final report is expected in the near future.

"We came the closest ever to this country having a coup, and now we need accountability," McCarthy told Fox News' "Sunday Morning Futures." "I respect this attorney general so greatly, that the way he has handled this, he believes in accountability, but more importantly, he believes in the rule of law."

When asked if there will really be accountability, McCarthy promised, "Yes."

For our nation's sake, I hope and pray that Congressman McCarthy is 100% correct.  If he isn't, we truly have become just another Banana republic on the face of the earth.

"What did the President Know, and When did He know it?

Howard Baker, Minority Leader of US Senate.

The equivalent would be if the same question was poseed by the ranking democrat Senator, regarding Obama.

I believe that Obama was responsible, if he knew or not.

You can delegate authority, but you cannot delegate responsibility.

Obama was responsible for actions by Lynch, Comey, McCabe, etc.

They might teach that (Or have once taught that) at the service academies. It is a Business Managemet topic.

It is NOT a Harvard Law or Constitution topic.

 Not only accountability but responsibility.

By Sara Carter - September 15, 2019

Republican House leader Rep. Kevin McCarthy, R-CA., told Fox New’s Sunday Morning Future‘s host Maria Bartiromo that the origination of the FBI probe into President Donald Trump’s campaign in 2016 and what followed ‘was the closest thing to a coup that anyone has ever seen.”

Moreover, he noted that the actions and evidence gathered regarding many former Obama Administration officials and bureaucrats like former FBI Special Agent Peter Strzok, former FBI Attorney Lisa Page, former CIA Director John Brennan, former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe reveal that they were attempting to frame Trump.

Last week, the District of Columbia U.S. Attorney Jessie Liu recommended moving forward with charges against McCabe. The charges stem from recommendations made by Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz’s report last year that McCabe lied under oath and leaked to the media. McCabe’s lawyers attempts to appeal the decision was rejected by the Deputy Attorney General, a source familiar with the decision told SaraACarter.com last week.
