RUSH EXCERPT:

McCABE: "It is incredible John, that indictment is extraordinarily detailed. The inclusion of the photographs, it is a very impactful document, that makes serious, serious charges against the senator. They are allegations at this point, right? He has not been proven guilty of anything yet. It is true that conduct laid out in the indictment is damning, it is breathes in, and it really goes to show the incredibly high bar we have in public corruption cases that we have now. As a result of the case — against governor years ago that went to the Supreme Court. It’s a very high bar to be able to prove these cases. You have to show a very clear quid pro quo, that the politician accepted something of value in a term of committing unofficial acts. The items of value or laid out explicitly in this indictment, and it is an impressive document, it will be one that he has a hard time defending against."
