VOX: Exclusive: top FBI officials could testify against Trump
The acting head of the bureau told top officials to prepare.
Shortly after the appointment of special counsel Robert Mueller in May, acting FBI Director Andrew McCabe told several of the highest-ranking managers of the bureau they should consider themselves possible witnesses in any investigation into whether President Donald Trump engaged in obstruction of justice, according to two senior federal law enforcement officials.
McCabe has told colleagues that he too is a potential witness in the probe of whether Trump broke the law by trying to thwart the FBI's Russia investigation and the investigation into whether the Trump campaign colluded with the Russian government to defeat Hillary Clinton in the 2016 election.
Two senior federal law enforcement officials have told me that the new revelations illustrate why they believe the potential case against Trump is stronger than outsiders have thought.

Update: FBI officials warned they might have to testify against Trump: report (The Hill)
WNU Editor: The leak appears to be coming from Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe's office .... the same Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe that President Trump wants fired .... Trump questions why Jeff Sessions didn't fire acting FBI Director Andrew McCabe (Washington Examiner). Demands for Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe recusal/removal have been building up since it became it known that his wife received campaign money from a Hillary Clinton ally last year. All that I can say is that if this VOX report is true, it is more evidence that the "intelligence establishment" is pushing back on President Trump. The only difference now is that they are not even hiding it anymore.
Hat tip to Fred for a heads-up on the above story.
Update #2: The expectation now is that Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe will be posted elsewhere when newly appointed FBI Director Christopher Wray has settled into his new office ....
