What's this?

Thanks

No offense to you on this particular number, but I will always check numbers whether it is a leftie or rightie number.

Even knowing McCabe spent a huge amount of his career making well over 6 figures in government, this number seemed way to high in my layman's mine. I could see a few million, but 11 million without inheritance seemed far fetch.

It appears some obscure internet site publish it and Rush Limbaugh mentioned it on one of his shows so it took off. Oh well, fact checking leftie and righties is a good thing.

Can you link me a believable article on the 11 million net worth? -- VaTechie 04/20/2018 09:51AM

Someone has too, the FBI management team at the highest levels -- Charleston Cav 04/19/2018 7:10PM

Nothing like weaponizing Justice. ** -- HokieDelNorte 04/19/2018 3:01PM

It's an IG referral, right? -- wahoo138 04/19/2018 3:56PM

No, no, no! Anything bad for Dems is now "weaponizing Justice". Of course, -- Hoodafan 04/19/2018 4:04PM

I agree, let it roll ** -- VaTechie 04/19/2018 4:04PM

Can we make that determination before the the matter is resolved? -- Hokie5150 04/19/2018 3:17PM

Yes, we can. Trump shouldn't be telling DOJ who to go after -- WahooMatt05 04/19/2018 3:29PM

So much for accepting the IG's findings.... ** -- hoothat 04/19/2018 4:52PM

It could taint the IG's findings, but the IG should do its job in any event ** -- hoolstoptheheels 04/19/2018 5:58PM

Shouldn't we start with accepting the election results? :-) ** -- Hoodafan 04/19/2018 5:03PM

Trump was asking him to be fired before the IG released anything -- WahooMatt05 04/19/2018 4:56PM

Making claims without substance again -- hoothat 04/19/2018 5:57PM

I disagree to an extent. I see this as a bit more normalization of -- hoolstoptheheels 04/19/2018 6:20PM

If the IG is independent should he be talking to trump? ** -- walkthecorner 04/19/2018 6:16PM

He can't inform the chief executive of his findings? ** -- hoothat 04/19/2018 7:48PM

I would say that does compromise indepenence but -- walkthecorner 04/19/2018 7:53PM

He didn’t. Referral is from IG. ** -- JMHoo 04/19/2018 4:05PM

Did McCabe break the law or not? ** -- Hokie5150 04/19/2018 4:04PM

Yes he did but Trump’s extra commentary -- walkthecorner 04/19/2018 5:08PM

Sure it does, but it doesn't mean that McCabe's actions are untouchable -- Hokie5150 04/19/2018 5:51PM

That wasn't the question. The question was 'was justice weaponized' -- WahooMatt05 04/19/2018 4:19PM
