A U.S. attorney who refused to pursue charges against former FBI Director James Comey was reportedly fired after it was discovered he held secret meetings with federal judges in the Eastern District of Virginia.
Reports Monday state DOJ prosecutor Robert McBride, who served as first assistant to interim United States attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia Lindsey Halligan, was assigned to handle the Comey case, but declined.
MS.NOW (formerly MSNBC) has more via anonymous sources:
McBride, a prosecutor and former supervisor in a U.S. attorney’s office in Kentucky, had been asked in recent days to run the Comey case, and told top Justice officials he felt it would be difficult to do that and also run the office, according to the people.
According to MS.NOW’s sources, it was soon discovered before discarding the case, McBride, 64, had secretly met with more than one federal judge from the Eastern District without informing Halligan.
Halligan had also recently learned that McBride held private meetings with federal judges in the Eastern District of Virginia, according to a source familiar with McBride’s removal.
That source said the meeting was convened without Halligan’s knowledge and was viewed as undermining the administration. The offices of the attorney general and deputy attorney general supported McBride’s removal and the Executive Office of U.S Attorneys signed the paperwork to remove him.
Of course, MS.NOW doesn’t question what transpired during the secret meetings or how they may have influenced McBride’s decision to drop the case.
Halligan was appointed as the US Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia by President Donald Trump last September after he fired off a Truth Social post excoriating US Attorney General Pam Bondi for failing to prosecute several Deep State coup plotters.
Days later, ex-FBI chief Comey was indicted by a grand jury on two felony counts, lying to Congress and obstructing a congressional proceeding.
In November, a U.S. district judge appointed by President Bill Clinton ruled Halligan was appointed unlawfully, dismissing the case against Comey without prejudice and requiring the DOJ to refile if it seeks to proceed.
“Lindsey Halligan is still pursuing the case against Comey,” reports The Gateway Pundit. “However, McBride was stonewalling and refusing to re-prosecute Comey.”
Now the jig is up and McBride is out!
