Washington insiders must be wondering what will happen next after the last-minute decision by AG Jeff Sessions to terminate former Deputy Director of the FBI Andrew McCabe only hours before his retirement would have been effective. This action will surely give partisans plenty to fight over during the coming days and months. We must remember how this came about.
This action demonstrates the danger in draining the Washington swamp and the resistance within the establishment to President Trump and his administration. The McCabe pension was reported to be worth up to $1.8 million, as he is 50 years old and could easily receive 30 years of pension for 20 years of work. This loss certainly could make an enemy of the former Acting FBI Director.

McCabe (a lawyer) issued a public statement that is a political response and an argument for a defamatory claim against the President......... Read more
My Take - Let's get this out of the way. They're now claiming he shouldn't he fired because it's being done the last minute before he retires.
Let's try and get this right.
It's not a matter of when he's being fired is whether or not he committed a crime. And it appears he did. Get past that emotional clabber. He claims he's going to sue - good! In a such a civil action he can be questioned during discovery and he can't claim the Fifth Amendment and refuse to answer, and that will include being called to testify in court. He can't refuse to testify and he can't refuse to answer. He needs to start worrying about going to jail, not his pension.
