FBI’s No. 2 set to quit amid storm

THE FBI’S deputy director will step down next year amid attacks from President Trump and other Republicans accusing top officials at the agency of partisanship and bias, according to reports.

Andrew McCabe will likely retire as the agency’s second-in-command after he becomes eligible for his full pension in March, the Washington Post reported on Saturday.

McCabe, 49, has endured a whirlwind year as political storms swirl around the nation’s top law enforcement agency. McCabe (photo) became acting FBI director in May after President Trump fired James Comey and served until Christopher Wray took the helm in August.

Trump has labeled the agency “tainted” and said its reputation is “in tatters.”

Trump, who spent Saturday morning at one of his golf clubs, took aim at McCabe Saturday after returning to his Mar-a-Lago resort.

“How can FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, the man in charge, along with leakin’ James Comey, of the Phony Hillary Clinton investigation (including her 33,000 illegally deleted emails) be given $700,000 for wife’s campaign by Clinton Puppets during investigation?” Trump tweeted.

McCabe’s wife, Jill, received money from Clinton ally Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe’s political action committee and the Virginia Democratic Party for a state Senate race in 2015.
