After the Justice Department's inspector general released a report citing fired Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe's lack of "candor," President Donald Trump posted a rage-filled tweet expressing his emotions.
"DOJ just issued the McCabe report - which is a total disaster," the president tweeted Friday afternoon. "He LIED! LIED! LIED! McCabe was totally controlled by Comey - McCabe is Comey!! No collusion, all made up by this den of thieves and lowlifes!"
In the report, the DOJ's internal watchdog accused McCabe of exhibiting behavior that "lacks candor" (a fireable offense within the department) on four occasions. The IG also said the former deputy director issued unauthorized disclosures of internal information that went against the department's "public interest." The report said McCabe's disclosure, which was made to the Wall Street Journal, was done "in a manner designed to advance his personal interests at the expense of department leadership."
