hurricane season. we have a lot to go. the dow up about 45 points. this is seven days in a row gains as we close in on a recor record. we achieved less in july. we are back in that territory already. hello, everyone, i am juan williams along with jesse watters, dana perino angus who was back, it s greg! it s 5:00 in new york city. this is the five. speaks juan: bad news for inter-mccabe, federal prosecutors recommend moving forward with criminal charges against the former fbi deputy director. it is unclear what those charges what might be but here s what we do know. andrew mccabe was fired right before his retirement in 2019. it happened after your the
don t need the prosecutor. this has come back to bite him. his attorneys were quite arrogant when he was referred for criminal charges last year to the inspector general. they wanted to work out some deal but andrew mccabe is being referred not just by the ig but the u.s. attorney because he lied to federal investigators, inspector general and under oath three times. it is on the record and andrew mccabe is being held to the same standards as when he was the fbi director. he has taken away their liberties and he should be held accountable for it. juan: but jim comey, no prosecution. katie: there is obvious more information for them to look at more charges and proceed. the new york times reported that a possible indictment was coming. i don t know what the charges are going to be but perjury looks like one of them,

inspector general found he authorized a media leak into an investigation into the clinton foundation. the fbi determined that mccabe did not tell the truth about what happened. jesse, obviously mccabe has been targeted by president trump for a lot of nastiness. what do you think this means for andrew mccabe right now? jesse: it s not good. let s remember, mccabe targeted donald trump ear that is how this whole thing started. juan: wait a minute, he targeted the clinton foundation. jesse: this lie was about that, yes. but lets her member he tried to take the president out. they hatched the insurance plot in his office, and when the president got wind of that insurance policy and fired his boss, james comey, then mccabe comes along and wants people wearing wires and getting trump out of office on democratically. and that is what this is about. this is the reason why trump was elected in the first place. people want to see justice in
