So Trump is replacing Comey AND his deputy director. It's obvious Trump wants to insert partisan hacks that won't push the investigation into Trump & Russia, clearly, as Trump is already lying publicly stating he's not under investigation.
I was truly impressed with McCabes testimony today and his dedication to Comey, Trump clearly wasn't.
McCabe is a Democrat and was Comey's Deputy Director of the FBI and started his FBI career with Comey in the New York Field Office where he focused on organized crime, so you can see why Trump wants McCabe out.
Sad state of affairs.

The Deputy Director of the FBI is not appointed by the POTUS. I don't think Trump can fire him because McCabe is still just the Deputy Director he's not the actual directer he's just filling in for the vacant spot which is part of the duties of his position.
It's a position that is filled from with-in the FBI. I think the only way he can be fired is by the next actual director. of the FBI..
