Former FBI official Andrew McCabe—who was fired two days before his scheduled resignation over feuds with President Trump and Attorney General Jeff Sessions—will publish a book this December detailing Trump’s war on the FBI. A Tuesday press release from St. Martin’s Press announced The Threat: How the FBI Protects America in the Age of Terror and Trump will provide “a candid account of his career and an impassioned defense of the FBI’s agents” and detail “a series of troubling, contradictory, and often bizarre conversations” that led McCabe to the conclusion that “actions of this president and his administration undermine the FBI and the entire intelligence community.” McCabe was fired after Sessions claimed that he had leaked to the media and lied under oath. McCabe, a 20-plus-year FBI vet, has denied those charges. In the publisher’s statement, McCabe is quoted saying “I wrote this book because the president’s attacks on me symbolize his destructive effect on the country as a whole [...] He is undermining America’s safety and security, and eroding public confidence in its institutions. His attacks on the most crucial institutions of government, and on the professionals who serve within them, should make every American stand up and take notice.”
