House Intel Dem to Trump: ‘Gloat now, but you will be fired soon’

Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.) scolded President Trump for celebrating the firing of former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe on Friday night, telling him to “gloat now, but you will be fired soon.”

“And it’s not going to be done cowardly, as you’ve done to so many who’ve served you,” Swalwell tweeted Saturday. “There’s a storm gathering, Mr. President, and it’s going to wipe out you and your corrupt organization all the way down to the studs.”

The Democrat, who sits on the House Intelligence Committee, was responding to Trump’s tweet celebrating McCabe’s firing. Swalwell also tweeted on Friday night that McCabe's firing showed “how guilty people act.”

Trump, who had attacked McCable multiple times, called the firing “a great day for democracy.”

Attorney General Jeff Sessions fired McCabe on Friday after an internal FBI office found that McCabe wasn’t completely honest with investigators during a review and had made an unauthorized disclosure to the media.

McCabe quickly hit back, saying he was dismissed as part of an effort to undermine special counsel Robert Mueller. McCabe could be a key witness in Mueller’s probe of Russia's election interference, as he led the FBI in the weeks after Trump fired former FBI Director James Comey.

McCabe's firing took place just two days before he was scheduled to retire and be eligible for his pension. His dismissal puts that pension in jeopardy.
