McCabe is a potential key witness in the Russia probe. Mueller is also examining whether Trump might have obstructed justice, including by firing Comey last May. McCabe denied any impropriety and said he was the victim of a Trump administration “war” against the FBI and the special counsel. McCabe kept memos of his interactions with Trump, US media reported Saturday, adding that the documents could bolster his version of events. Lack of candour under oath is a firing offense at the FBI, but the politically-charged context of the move raised questions among McCabe’s backers.
