Justice Department officials on Saturday will interview four candidates to succeed ousted FBI Director James Comey.

They include acting FBI Director Andrew McCabe.

Michael J. Garcia, an associate judge on the New York's highest court, is also on the list.

John: I'm nervous about the interview with Jeff tomorrow.
Sandy: Really. You'll do fine. What are you going to wear.
John: I don't know. I can't really decide.
Sandy: You want me to iron the white hood...you know Jeff always likes it when you wear the robes.




Cornyn on the short list. These guys are such asshats. Only saving grace is that it was the appointment of political hack to the Director role that drove Mark Felt into the arms (and front pages) of Woodward and Bernstein.

WHAT AM I SAYING ? A "CONSCIENCE" ? Finding a republican with a
conscience is like trying to find a dog with table manners.

choke it off with lack of funds, cronies to obfuscate and deny, control of protest and
attacks on truth with FAKE NEWS finger-pointing. Much as we know what's going on,
the country remains divided.

Even if a very good scenario plays out, how do we reverse this unlawful theft of
our resources, property, income streams, social benefits?

Can I get a witness?

The only reason he/they will interview McCabe, is for "optics", as these people like to call it. " He was considered, but... (he wouldn't be a holster for the boss's...."

No way he will be chosen, especially after his demonstrated loyalty to the FBI (We should know that the mission of most of these folks is very serious) and Comey. .

His valuable experience is worth nothing to these morons, only honor and loyalty to Caesar.
