Actually, that was not for political purposes, even though it involved the political process. That was an ongoing investigation into Russian infiltration into US elections from before Trump was the GOP nominee for president. Indeed it was long before that interference was a "hot" story, which is actually the story destined to be the "all time biggest political scandal" if - sorry, when - it's finally reported that the Trump campaign was conspiring with the Russians.
Ummmm...
Because that's not an issue? He's not responsible for his wife's political career or donations to it. McCabe has been canned for "unauthorized disclosures to the media" - for political reasons, less than 2 days before he was scheduled to retire and collect a pension. Why are you harping on old news?

This is a good point, which I may have made myself: Someone inside the campaign informing the FBI is not the same as the FBI planting a spy.
FURTHER UPDATE:
Felix Sater?US officials tell CNN that the confidential intelligence source was not planted inside the campaign to provide information to investigators.
One of the officials said the informant is a US citizen but provided no other details on the identity.
The officials say that the identity of the informant had been closely held at the highest levels of the FBI and intelligence community, and the individual has been a source for the FBI and CIA for years.
CNN
FURTHER UPDATE: Not Sater. I've seen analysis naming the informant. I won't do it here. Nor will I link to those who do.
FURTHER UPDATE:
Sue the son-of-a-bitch, Bromwich.
