Trump’s trying to get the McCabe firing to take out Sessions… Think of this as a variation on the Saturday Night Massacre with its cascading resignations. Only this time the lawfare has more reality-TV elements.
More interesting is that it may be about the various Russians investigated by McCabe years ago, and why Flynn, Papadopoulos, etc have made plea deals...
This is really about how guilty people act...

Whether or not McCabe’s conduct has been above reproach, all of this is true. And to make matters worse, the firing occurred when Jeff Sessions’s own job is clearly on the line. Sessions, remember, was mulling McCabe’s firing even as Trump himself was mulling Sessions’s firing.
