On the same day (May 10,2017) McCabe assumed the office of Acting FBI Director, after Director James Comey had been fired for mishandling the Hillary Clinton email investigation, McCabe opened a [[criminal]] investigation into [[President Trump]] which became the [[Mueller investigation]] obstruction inquiry. That same day again McCabe lied to internal FBI investigators about [[leak]]s he authorized to the ''Wall Street Journal'' two weeks before the [[2016 presidential election]] denying the Clinton Foundation pay-to-play investigation had been shut down due to political influence, the Inspector general determined.

McCabe served as Acting Director until August 1, 2017, when [[Christopher Wray]] was confirmed by the Senate as the new FBI Director. At that time, McCabe resumed his duties as Deputy Director while still under investigation for misconduct, a position he held until January 29, 2018.
