Rosenstein recommended Trump fire Comey.
now there's an investigation into the firing of Comey...

Rosenstein has to step down... conflict of interest.

So you're missing a few cards out the deck also.

If​ he hasn't broken a law, then why is he trying so hard to destroy the investigation. Just cooperate if you have nothing to hide.


Russians.

How is he trying to destroy the investigation? You liked the job Comey had done/ was doing?

They're all idiots, but that's par for the course. My bar has been lowered.

you're the lowest comom denominator here. how much lower can your bar get?

Because it's wasting time that could be spent working on his proposed-agenda.

Which is the only attainable goal by the democrats. It's sad.

Again, the dems only care about winning the current news cycle and screw themselves in the process.

It's more for the midterms next year, plus trump is obsessed with cable news and isn't focusing on getting legislation passed while his political capital is at its peak. Democrats are dangling the keys on front of trump and he is falling for it hook, line, and sinker.

"I am being investigated for firing the FBI Director by the man who told me to fire the FBI Director! Witch Hunt," Trump wrote.


And in the process, has uncovered the fact that if Trump is being investigated for firing Comey. then Rosenstein, who recommended the firing, must recuse himself.

Which has apparently started a sh*tstorm over at the DOJ. And now it appears they are scrambling to prevent Rosenstein from recusing himself, because if he does, the next person in can fire Muehller and bring in his own special prosecutor.

And the person who would take over for Rosenstein? Rachel Brand.

Quote:According to people briefed on his thinking, while Mr. Trump has left open the possibility of dismissing Mr. Mueller, his anger has been mostly trained on Mr. Sessions and Mr. Rosenstein. The president blames Mr. Rosenstein for appointing Mr. Mueller in the first place, and he faults Mr. Sessions for his earlier recusal from Russia-related issues.

But the people briefed on the president’s thinking said Mr. Trump also knows that firing Mr. Rosenstein would be politically dangerous.

Responding to Mr. Trump’s statement on Twitter, Senator Dianne Feinstein of California, the ranking Democrat on the Judiciary Committee, said she was “growing increasingly concerned” that Mr. Trump might attempt to fire both Mr. Mueller and Mr. Rosenstein.

“If the president thinks he can fire Deputy Attorney General Rosenstein and replace him with someone who will shut down the investigation, he’s in for a rude awakening,” she said in a statement. “Even his staunchest supporters will balk at such a blatant effort to subvert the law.”

Separately, the apparent expansion of Mr. Mueller’s investigation into whether Mr. Trump obstructed justice, including by firing Mr. Comey, has raised the question of whether Mr. Rosenstein, as a witness to and participant in the events in 2017 that culminated in that ouster, may have to also recuse himself.

If Mr. Rosenstein recuses himself from overseeing the special counsel investigation or were to resign or be fired by Mr. Trump — acting attorney general duties for the inquiry would fall to the department’s No. 3 official, Associate Attorney General Rachel Brand.

Ms. Brand has never served as a prosecutor. She advised the Bush Justice Department on selecting judicial nominees, and she served as a Republican appointee on the Privacy and Civil Liberties Oversight Board.

“As the deputy attorney general has said numerous times, if there comes a point when he needs to recuse, he will,” said Ian Prior, a Justice Department spokesman. “However, nothing has changed.”

Feinstein is wrong. Trump can fire him and it would be perfectly legal.


Lmao

That's not at all what she was referring to.
