Firing Rosenstein obstruction of justice, lawmaker says
2018-09-23
[PRESSTV] US President Donald Trump
...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States...
has been warned over an attempt to fire Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein amid a probe into the billionaire’s ties with Russia.

Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party, Democratic Representative Ted Lieu told MSNBC on Saturday that sacking the official who appointed special counsel Bob Mueller would amount to obstruction of justice.

"You just had Paul Manafort flip, you had Michael Cohen, his longtime lawyer, flip," he said. "And then all of a sudden we see these sources talking about what Rod Rosenstein said."

#6  Let an Inspector General referral manage the flak until post-midterm.

Thence bye-bye.

#5  I really wonder sometimes...do some of these congresscritters have any idea what laws actually mean? Cause from the crap they say, they should all be committed for having some seriously hard breaks from reality.

#4  I don't trust Rosenstein. He should have recused himself from anything to do with Mueller's SC. Rosenstein can't be both a witness in the SC and in charge of Mueller's SC according to Federal law. He also signed the 4th FISA warrant application based on what info. It was made-up info which was known to Rosenstein.

It is probably best to go with what #1 news said. Turn over to the DOJ IG and let the recommendations come from him. RR will be recommended for prosecution or firing or he will resign. Trump can bypass the Dem criticisms of obstruction of justice or interference with Mueller's SC if RR were fired.
