Ex-FBI official was concerned Russia probes could ‘vanish’

Former FBI deputy director Andrew McCabe says in an interview aired today that he worried that investigations into US President Donald Trump’s ties to Russia and possible obstruction of justice would be shut down after Trump fired FBI director James Comey.

According to CBS, which conducted the interview, McCabe said Justice Department officials discussed bringing the Cabinet together to consider using the Constitution’s 25th Amendment to remove Trump from office.
