Law fag here… Before everyone runs off the deep end, recall that the OIG referral is ONLY in reference to an unauthorized leak to a media outlet. No other nexus of facts is involved. McCabe likely remains under investigation otherwise as part of the general FBI Fisa abuse investigation. There could be a lot of reasons for the OIG investigation being dropped. First, it appears that the CIA is the ring leader of misinformation and coup attempt - perhaps it is best that McCabe maintain credibility as a possible witness in those investigations, rather than lose credibility as a witness by being the defendant in the OIG referral matter. It's hard to say. Could also be that the OIG matter simply cannot be proved up at this point. If McCabe offered useful information, you want to protect his credibility for future testimony. All this to say, this news is only in reference to a leak to a media outlet - NOT the larger investigation re: FISA abuse.
Nothing to see here…
