    Attorney General Jeff Sessions — at the public urging of President Donald Trump — has been pressuring FBI Director Christopher Wray to fire Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, but Wray threatened to resign if McCabe was removed, according to three sources with direct knowledge.

    Wray's resignation under those cir stances would have created a media firestorm. The White House — understandably gun-shy after the Comey debacle — didn’t want that scene, so McCabe remains.

    Sessions told White House Counsel Don McGahn about how upset Wray was about the pressure on him to fire McCabe, and McGahn told Sessions this issue wasn’t worth losing the FBI Director over, according to a source familiar with the situation.

    Pompeo is also expected to run CIA as Repug political arm

    I'm surprised Wray stood his ground

    The two parties have, for the most part, been hands off law enforcement when it comes to party politics.

    This administration, even more so than the incompetent Bush administration, has made political correctness tests the only thing that matters. That is dangerous.


    Trump asked acting FBI director McCabe who he voted for in 2016.
