If you had any doubts about how critical McCabe was to this whole deal, how mad they are and how in league the media is, check how they’re trying to save his pension. This is before the IG report drops, even knowing it will say that he lied and leaked.

Former Bush official Ari Fleischer gives them a warning, noting it really isn’t the best idea.

The FBI Office of Professional Responsibility recommended his firing.

So Democrats are revealing how critical he is to them and are protecting someone who the FBI itself has recommended firing for lack of candor, a cardinal sin in the FBI. Lying in an internal investigation multiple times.

But for Democrats that’s like breathing.
