Rosenstein is a Rat.

On Nicolle now,

To save his job Rosenstein in the fall of 2018 told Trump that he would "land his plane." Rosenstein has been in on it with Trump. The I.G. needs to investigate Rosenstein. We need a Congressional hearing with Rosenstein. Did Rosenstein assure Trump that he was on his side.

and start cleaning house. Our country has gone to hell under Trump. Our justice department works for Trump.

and people are nervous about how impeachment will look politically? Give me a break. One of our presidential candidates needs to lead the charge politically and House Democrats need to go to full body armor.

was Rosenstein running to Trump with all of Mueller's findings?

I can't post this enough times. Rosenstein was in charge of Mueller, he was supposed to be neutral.

I'm at a loss for words, which is scary. Are there no decent men in our justice department?

I think it was when he was testifying at his confirmation hearing.

it seemed out of context when he said it. I didn't see Nicole's program, was Rosenstien on?

Anyway, what now strikes me is that this is one of those "code" terms like COFEVFE.

speech yesterday criticizing Obama and praising Trump for "upholding the rule of law," it's conceivable that someone in the DOJ contacted the Washington Post and leaked this story. Hmmmmmmm. Going to be very interesting how this plays out. I am encouraged if we can expect future leaks in an effort to get around the unholy obstruction and treason committed by the so-called "Attorney General," William Barr.

I think if Rosenstein had really wanted to throw a monkey wrench into the SCO investigation, he could have. I doesn't appear that happened. TBH, Rosenstein doesn't seem to have acted much differently than all the different characters cited by Woodward in "Fear" who said one thing to Trump, then didn't do it.

I sure hope Mueller hasn't been compromised too. I believe he's best buds with Barr + a Repuke. Schiff, and Nadler are our only hope.Start the impeachment hearings.

Would Mueller have hesitated to call obstruction obstruction if trump were a democrat? I don't think so.
