Former acting FBI chief says Trump pardons are undermining justice: 'It's remarkably disgusting' [View all]
The former acting FBI chief Andrew McCabe has criticised the wave of presidential pardons issued by Donald Trump this week as "remarkably disgusting."
Speaking to CNN, Mr McCabe said the president "is actively engaged in undermining the system of justice that he is supposed to protect and defend."
"These pardons are essentially the culmination of those acts of obstruction of justice," that was cited in the Mueller report, he added.
Mr McCabe was fired by Trump's first Attorney General Jeff Sessions one day before his pension kicked in. A Justice Department report said at the time that McCabe had overstepped his authority by allowing an aide to speak to the Wall Street Journal about an FBI probe into the Clinton Foundation.
