By Katelyn Polantz, CNN Reporter, Crime and Justice
Former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, whom Donald Trump-era Attorney General Jeff Sessions fired hours before his retirement as the then-President’s political furor toward him grew, has settled a lawsuit with the Justice Department, allowing him to officially retire, recoup hundreds of thousands of dollars in legal fees and his pension.
McCabe is a CNN law enforcement analyst.
The New York Times first reported the settlement.
