Andrew McCabe said he was the one who booted Peter Strzok from the special counsel's team, not Robert Mueller
McCabe's role in Strzok's ouster from Mueller's team is a newly disclosed wrinkle in the saga for the former counterintelligence agent. Strzok played a central role in the investigation of Hillary Clinton's private email server and helped launch the counterintelligence investigation into links between President Donald Trump's 2016 campaign and Russians.
"My recollection is that there was a brief discussion between me, the special counsel, and one of his attorneys, a discussion of his desire and, you know, expression that he thought it would be appropriate for me to return to the FBI," Strzok recalled under questioning from Rep. John Ratcliffe .
