Former FBI deputy Director Andrew McCabe wrote memos detailing his interactions with President Donald Trump, as well as on some interactions between the president and former FBI Director James Comey, a person with knowledge of the matter told HuffPost. He has also turned hard copies of the memos over to special counsel Robert Mueller, the source said. But Attorney General Jeff Sessions fired him late Friday, a decision that could significantly affect McCabe’s pension. In a lengthy statement, McCabe said he was fired because his memos could corroborate Comey’s accounts of interactions with the president. Trump applauded McCabe’s ouster in a tweet Saturday morning, calling it a “great day for Democracy.”“Sanctimonious James Comey was his boss and made McCabe look like a choirboy,” Trump wrote.
