Line 65: + − The fact is that McCabe participated in the controversial, high-profile Clinton investigation even though his wife took money from McAuliffe. FBI’s senior leadership should never have allowed that appearance of a conflict to undermine the Bureau’s important work. The Senate Committee wises to know if McCabe was involved in approving or establishing the FBI’s reported arrangement with Christopher Steele, or if McCabe vouched for or otherwise relied on the politically-funded dossier in the course of the investigation. Simply put, the American people should know if the FBI’s second-in-command relied on Democrat-funded opposition research to justify an investigation of the Republican presidential campaign.<ref>https://nobsopus.blogspot.com/2017/04/grassley-examines-potential-conflicts.html</ref>+ + +

McCabe came under investigation by the Department of Justice Office of the Inspector General to examine whether the political and financial connections between his wife’s Democratic political campaign and Clinton associates warranted his recusal in the FBI’s Clinton email investigation. While McCabe recused himself from public corruption cases in Virginia—presumably including the reportedly ongoing investigation of McAuliffe regarding illegal campaign contributions—he failed to recuse himself from the Clinton email investigation, despite the appearance of a conflict of interest created by his wife’s campaign accepting $700,000 from a close Clinton associate during the email investigation.
At the time of McCabe's accession to the directorship, McCabe was under an internal FBI Inspector General review for [[conflict of interest]].<ref>https://www.judiciary.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/2016-01-12%20DOJ%20OIG%20to%20CEG%20et%20al%20-%20Review%20of%20Clinton%20Investigation%20Process.pdf</ref> McCabe, who assisted in writing the bogus Benghazi talking points for [[Susan Rice]] and oversaw the whitewashing of Hillary's email investigation, is married to a candidate for the Virginia state Senate who took $700,000 from [[Terry McAuliffe]]'s PAC while the FBI’s investigation of Clinton',s emails was ongoing. McAuliffe simultaneously with Clinton was under FBI investigation for pay-to-play schemes involving a Chinese businessman.<ref>http://www.dailymail.co.uk/embed/video/1294661.html</ref> McAuliffe ran [[Bill Clinton]]'s [[United States presidential election, 1996|1996 presidential campaign]] which was marred by a foreign influence peddling scheme known as [[Chinagate]]. Despite evidence, McCabe refused to merge the McCauliffe investigation into the ongoing pay-to-play investigations of the [[Clinton Foundation]].<ref>http://www.breitbart.com/texas/2016/10/30/fbi-investigation-bribery-clinton-foundation-spans-nation-multiple-field-offices-says-wsj/</ref> McAuliffe was [[Hillary Clinton 2008 presidential campaign|Hillary's 2008 campaign manager]].
