Gowdy Does 'Not Believe' McCabe Told the Gang of Eight About Trump Probe

In recent days, while on his book tour for The Threat: How the FBI Protects America in the Age of Terror and Trump, former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe has been speaking out on how he acted on his "Concerns" about President Trump's relationship to Russia.

"It's possible" Trump is a "Russian asset," McCabe declared Tuesday night.

Trump and his allies are sounding off against McCabe for admitting that the FBI investigated the president.

McCabe responded, in part, by noting he didn't face any push back from the bipartisan Gang of Eight.

Former Rep. Trey Gowdy doesn't believe him, especially because he says House Intelligence Chairman Rep. Devin Nunes and then-House Speaker Paul Ryan would never have played along with it.

"The reason he's doing it this way is that Devin and Paul are not allowed to discuss anything that is said in a Gang of Eight meeting, and McCabe knows that. So he can level the accusation and Paul and Devin cannot refute him."

Gowdy also took some time to criticize the FBI for its longstanding bias against the president, something which Trump appreciated.
