Great expose on Rosenstein's inner circle. Also contained a link to the NY Times interview with Trump where he expressed doubt over the appointment of Rosenstien, to Sessions, who is believed to have recommended him for his Deputy position.

Speaking with Times reporters, Trump said he ended "up with a second man, who's a deputy" after Attorney General Jeff Sessions recused himself from Russia-related investigations that involved the Trump campaign.

"Who is he?" Trump said. "And Jeff hardly knew. He's from Baltimore."

"Rod Rosenstein, who is from Baltimore," Trump later added. "There are very few Republicans in Baltimore, if any. So, he's from Baltimore."

Once Strzok is fully unravelled CINC can fire anybody he wants with no blowback. No ‘hell to pay’.

IG Horowitz needs to step on it!

LOL, Mr. President! "He's from Barcelona!"

This was at the bottom of the article.

Another Update: Tucker Carlson reports that another top Mueller Deputy who worked for Rosenstein when he was U.S. Attorney, Aaron Zelinsky, failed to disclose that he represented the person who installed Hillary’s private server.

This investigation always comes back to Rosenstein. He panicked when he went to Mueller and I sense he is panicking now. Rosenstein is the focal point for Mueller but after that the big plot was hatched in the Oval Office.

The most common question I am asked in interviews these days is why doesn't President Trump fire Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein. The better question is why doesn't Rosenstein just quit, as it's clear that nobody responsible for picking him wants him around anymore. In case you missed it, even President Trump called him out as a hack.

My question is who's vetting these people before they're nominated? Who is responsible for making these personnel decisions and recommending them to the President? He's selected some horrible people. Whoever's responsible should be fired immediately. As it says a little later in the article, Reagan knew that personnel was policy. Without the right people in key slots you're doomed policy-wise. Just look at the State Department...they are actively fighting the President very step of the way.

There needs to be a huge amount of firing. I don’t understand why that’s not happening.

J. Christian Adams should be the Special Counsel investigating the Kenyanesian Usurpation.
