Sources Within the FBI Tell True Pundit FBI Assistant Director Andrew McCabe has been Demoted Citing Lack of Confidence.
Under director James Comey, McCabe had unilateral control of FBI investigations including counter-terrorism and the Joint Terrorism Task Force (JTTF). McCabe will retain his title as deputy director but the responsibilities associated with the position have effectively been removed.
As the FBI's second in command, Mr. McCabe oversaw high profile cases including the Hillary Clinton email investigation. Mr. McCabe's close association with the Clinton Campaign has been at the center of the controversy, more specifically donations made to his wife's state senate campaign. It was revealed that Dr. Jill McCabe received a $600,000 donation from close Clinton associate, and governor of Virginia, Terry McAuliffe. The donation was made while Andrew McCabe led the investigation into Hillary Clinton's emails.

Acting FBI Director Andrew McCabe Accepted $600,000 'Donation' to Wife's Campaign
From the True Pundit Exclusive article:
This internal demotion likely sets the stage for McCabe’s departure from the FBI, according to sources who say that an investigation by the United States Office of the Inspector General into McCabe’s dealings with Hillary Clinton’s campaign have yielded troubling revelations.
...
FBI sources said Wray no longer had confidence in McCabe’s ability to serve as second in command of the Bureau.
One federal law enforcement source called the OIG probe into McCabe’s associations with the Hillary Clinton campaign a “train wreck.”
One source said McCabe is on “borrowed time” at the FBI.
Current FBI director Christopher Wray assumed the top position at the bureau after James Comey was abruptly fired by President Trump in May of this year, also in relation to the then director's poor handling of the Clinton email investigation.
