Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein threatened to “subpoena” emails, phone records and other documents from lawmakers and staff on a Republican-led House committee during a tense meeting earlier this year, according to emails reviewed by Fox News documenting the encounter and reflecting what aides described as a “personal attack.”
The emails memorialized a January 2018 closed-door meeting involving senior FBI and Justice Department officials as well as members of the House Intelligence Committee. The account claimed Rosenstein threatened to turn the tables on the committee’s inquiries regarding the Russia probe.
[snip] A second House committee staffer at the meeting backed up Patel’s account, writing: “Let me just add that watching the Deputy Attorney General launch a sustained personal attack against a congressional staffer in retaliation for vigorous oversight was astonishing and disheartening. … Also, having the nation’s #1 (for these matters) law enforcement officer threaten to ‘subpoena your calls and emails’ was downright chilling.”

DUH!!! He’s been there 26 YEARS!!!!
Is Rosenstein part of the Deep State/Swamp?
************************************************
Hell, he a Deep State 4-Star General leading the Deep State’s “resistance”. He is NOT acting in the interest of the American citizenry.
This guy is a total a$$hole.
Sessions is a genuine failure in all of this mess. He stood up for Rosenstein, taking the obfuscations of his agency reps over the claims of congressional staff.
He is backing the wrong horse if he thinks his agency can be rescued from its lawless policies and procedures.
The entire DOJ is infested with true believers in state supremacy.
Stay in line or face the weight of the state.
Do not question them.
The Kenyanesian Usurper had eight long years to completely corrupt our government.
I have never see such weak yellow jackasses as the Republicans in both Houses. F—k, they about as useless as ti!s on a boar. I'm mad as hell and Trump, wake the hell up. You may lose the Senate and House, and that mean you have lost everything.
The mere fact Sessions uses his years of service to say how much integrity he believes RR has is laughable! Just proves he’s a swamp rat!!!
Rosenstein os a part of the racketeering DOJ/FBI cartel that needs a RICO investication into their liberal fascist crime sybndicate activities,
Typical liberal fascist tactics, playing the system against itself, avoiding oversight of Congress, keeping documents
away, and even altering and destroying documents.
All of this is in support of a liberal fascist Obama coup against the President AND Congress, from within out of control agencies withing the US government.
PDJT should terminate everyone involved in this huge fiasco and themn indict them everyone, use RICO( Racketeering Influence, Corrupt Organization) statute!
“Rosenstein’s rot”
Thanks a rot Jeff.
“Rosenstein os a part of the racketeering DOJ/FBI cartel that needs a RICO investication into their liberal fascist crime sybndicate activities,”
DOJ/FBI....hoods with badges and guns.
at least two people witnessed RR threatening and Sessions defending him?...insane..
Rosenstein has only a few months left. He’s going to be gone soon after the November elections.

Less than thirty hours to go.
I beg to disagree on the point that in order to fail, one must first try.
Sessions is not a failure; he is a coward.
