    FBI's No 2 steps down; Trump publicly criticized him of political bias

    White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said Trump ”stands by his previous comments” about McCabe

    Andrew McCabe, the FBI's No. 2 official whom President Donald Trump publicly criticized for alleged political bias and reportedly wanted fired, stepped down from the bureau Monday, weeks ahead of his retirement. The move followed months of blistering criticism by Trump and his Republican allies that McCabe, 49, was an anti-Trump partisan. Recent reports said McCabe had been pressured to leave the bureau.
