Busy day. Over at the Senate, Lindsey Graham is drilling Andrew McCabe on the strange contrast in the FBI pouring in resources into investigating the Trump associates on a lead from an English bar but not a CIA referral of a Hillary Clinton/Russia allegation.

McCabe seems bizarrely unaware of any evidence that undermined the investigation including the CIA information the FBI that Carter Page was a CIA operative. As with Comey and Yates, no one will admit knowledge or responsibility. It is as if the FBI was left on auto-pilot.

McCabe just joined Comey, Rosenstein, Yates and others saying that he would never have signed off on the surveillance if he knew then what he knows today. That seems to make it unanimous on both the abusive surveillance and unanimous on the denial of personal responsibility.

Feinstein is again saying that the IG said that there was a legitimate basis for starting the Russian investigation. In truth, the IG said that, because the standard for opening a FISA surveillance was so low, it could not say that it was legally improper to start it...

...The IG emphasized that this was due to the low standard and added that the FBI was quickly informed that the underlying claims were flawed and that the Steele Dossier was unreliable.

McCabe just said that the Special Counsel report detailed eight claims of obstruction of justice that met the standard for criminal charges. That is not true. His own boss refuted that and slammed McCabe for his conduct. https://jonathanturley.org/2020/06/04/rosenstein-slams-mccabe-obstruction-theories-and-1000-prosecutors/
