Elijah Dominic McDotcom spews:
Still struggling to find the time to read all of McCabe’s filing.
So far it’s a doozy. To be expected considering the team that prepared it. Very detailed, very technical in terms of the relevant code and regulations, and yet concise and largely lacking in any adventurous forays into speculation and hyperbole. It will be read with respect and I suspect some sympathy.
Also worth noting, McCabe is not seeking much. Essentially he’s after declaratory relief which could produce speedier results in at least a couple of his claims. He wants his pension back. And I think he has a good shot at getting it. Even if, as it appears, the DOJ will fight this with everything they’ve got. Because pacifying the tender ego of the racist ManBaby with brain parasites is the only performance metric in any GOP administration.
McCabe argues, and the DOJ appears to have stipulated, that his last official day as an employee was Friday, March 16, 2018. According to FBI regulations, and given his status as an employee on accrued terminal leave, that was also the last full day of service as an employee he had to complete in order to qualify for his civil service pension. The suit argues that as of 5pm that day a “full day” of statutory employment was completed. And according to the records produced in FOIA disco, the FBI recorded that day as a complete full day of accrued vacation and furthermore paid McCabe accordingly for a full day.
But Sesh never got around to firing McCabe until 10pm. And so far, DOJ has withheld from public examination any of the deliberations or other determinations that later caused them to decide that it was not a full day and therefor deny McCabe his pension.
That’s just the first of about a dozen claims asserting errors on the part of DOJ in carrying out McCabe’s termination. Of course they all hang on specific language in the USC or in the FBI regulations. And also on the interpretation of that language as well as established precedent and past practice.
That last bit may prove quite important. When asked to intervene in disputes between employees and employers on matters of workplace rules, and the laws governing employment, when they involve language that is open to some interpretation, the courts customarily defer heavily to an examination of past practice and legal precedent. I’m willing to bet that McCabe can produce a great deal of evidence showing that FBI past employment practice has been to count 5pm as the end of a final full day of employment.
But I suppose the DOJ lawyers can always argue that time space distortions created by the invisible dungeon under a pizza parlor 2 miles north of FBI headquarters means that 10pm was really 5pm. Plus, also…. um… (fuck) um…

Last time I saw Richardson in public was at a museum fund raiser last fall. Not a single soul there under 40. He was tan, but other than that he looked bad (although he’s much thinner now). Taller than I remember. But he had trouble walking. Hair loss that he appeared to be trying to conceal. Bad suit and cheap boots, but wearing what must have been a small fortune in turquoise and silver (high end artisan shit according to people who would know). I’m sure there are some wealthy New Mexicans with less influence and relevance than Richardson. But I can’t think who they might be.

Although I’m sure if that officer saw fit to train his semi-auto assault rifle with safety off on a terrified child sobbing with fear in his own bedroom it is because it was policy for him to do so… if he felt like it… and if the kid was non-white.

Here’s some info on one of McCabe’s due process claims.
In Jan of 2018, acting under orders from president peepee conveyed through Sesh, Dir. Wray called McCabe in and offered him an ultimatum. He could announce to the agency that he was “voluntarily” taking a demotion from Dep. Dir. and Wray would give him his pick of line agent jobs. Or, if he refused to “volunteer” he would be demoted to a role of Wray’s choosing. McCabe refused the deal and following the meeting applied for and was granted terminal leave pending his retirement on March 16. As a result of his refusal to take the DOJ deal, and following his stepping down from his role as Dep. Dir., Wray ordered McCabe’s employment reclassified as a regular line agent, on leave, pending retirement (due process fuckup number 1).
Two months later, under pressure from the AG and the peepee president, the OIG agreed to break off a separate report from the “Big Big ButteryMale Report” dealing with McCabe individually. As a result of that separate report, the OPR recommended to the DAG that McCabe should be fired (due process fuckup number 2). So on March 16, at 10 pm AG Sesh sent an email (due process fuckup number 3) to McCabe ordering that he “should be removed” pursuant to AG’s authority under DOJ order 1202 (due process fuckup number 4).
By the numbers: (1) because Wray followed the RageBaby orders and demoted him way back in January, on March 16, the day when he was terminated McCabe was no longer acting Dep. Dir, but just a regular FBI dude; so (2) OPR had no business referring it’s findings to main justice because it was Wray’s exclusive statutory authority to terminate line agents; and so (3) by agency regulation his termination had to be in writing, hand delivered, stating the precise date of his termination, stating the reason for termination, and specify the procedures for appeal of the termination, not a email saying “go away”; and finally (4) Sesh could not be the name on the pink slip because according to the DOJ order cited, the AG’s authority to terminate an FBI employee does not extend to plain old vanilla line agents like McCabe.
The brief is quite a bit more technical and very boring. But it looks very solid, which is what you would expect from guys like these.
Though this absurd, reckless, and incompetent Republican administration may be a shameful disaster for most of America, it’s looking like a lucrative cottage industry for white shoe law firms.
Roger Rabbit spews:
@52 Sounds like he’s not only going to get his pension, but also back pay at his highest pay grade to the date of final settlement, because he never quit and if a court finds he was improperly terminated then he’s still employed.
A typical settlement in a wrongful termination case is one or two years’ salary, but these fuckups have a remarkable ability to cost the taxpayers one or two million dollars every time they throw the dice.
