Devin Nunes blasts Andrew McCabe’s book tour as ‘transparently self-serving’

Published



Rep. Devin Nunes, the top Republican on the House Intelligence Committee, condemned former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe on Tuesday after he openly discussed a conversation he had with congressional leaders about the bureau’s investigation into President Trump.

“Andy McCabe was fired from the FBI for lying and leaking, and many of the stories he’s telling on his book tour are transparently self-serving.
