If this happened, it is a declaration of war by an agency against those who would supervise their conduct, against our republican form of government. If it happened, Rosey should have been fired immediately. Jeff Sessions, where are you?

We need confirmation.

I don’t know how much more ammo they’re going to give to Trump to fire Rosenstein...but with this, I doubt he makes it through Tuesday.

If this report is true, surely Sessions has been informed by the committee which would make Sessions either completely inept or complicit since he has not already terminated Rosenstein.

Now that this is alleged, members of the committee will be asked to confirm, and we’ll know the answer shortly.

Well if it’s from a congressional source, it must be true.

Jeff chose this POS as his DAG. I want this goose-stepping goofball fired. I want him indicted for high treason.

Ditto. If true, then Nunes truly is a true patriot with a backbone to match. He has done a ‘face job’ on Rosenstein and is very publicly saying put your money where your mouth is.

Any attempt at retaliation will be grounds for firing. Perhaps this is part of Sessions referral to the IG for verification. I believe Sessions overreacted by recusing, if so our friend rosie may have opened the door to redemption for Jeff Sessions to step through. One can hope.

Actually, I read about this a few weeks ago, right here. It was little more than rumor at the time. Now, Jarrett has gone on record with a “sources said” report, it’s more likely to be true.

Seriously? If this is true, why hasn’t Rosenstein been fired already?!?

if true, this is exactly the abuse of power we are talking about, the exact abuse of power that sorely needs to be routed out and dealt with. And while we’re dealing with little napoleons, we need to change that public employee union pension law that governs loss of pension from ‘finally’ convicted (whatever that is supposed to mean) to ‘convicted’.

Elected members of congress have specific independence. If this really happened, I’ve go to thing the chairman and all party leaders, both parties, would have been all over this. Recall previous times with member communications were threatened, they circle the wagon on these things. So, it was a subtle message, not a threat. The house called their bluff and released the memo, even got Ryan’s blessing.

Chris Farrell of Judicial Watch last night also reported that "the FBI is threatening the president of the United States".

I would like to see confirmation on both of these reports.

If this is actually the case, then it’s cause to fire all of the top brass at DOJ and FBI, and make the case for congress to vote to de-fund and close both agencies.

Sessions could have put a stop to this crap on day one. Instead, he did the exact opposite, and let this whole FBI/DOJ plot go wildly out of control.

He’s the head of DOJ, and his should be the first head on a pike. The rest will be lucky if they stay out of prison.

Threatening the President and members of congress is a real bad idea.

If true then he’s a goner. This type of story is designed to force a resignation or justify firing.

Where is Jeff sessions?

No wonder Nunes had this memo released in its entirety.
I’m sure Rosenstein’s name will appear plenty of times in future memos released by the HPSCI.

I don’t believe this. I am skeptical of Rosenstein, and I think he is a prisoner of his bureaucracy.

But i think he is a by the book guy and it would be beyond foolish to do this.

It’s an empty threat anyway, he can’t just arbitrarily subpoena from members of Congress.

I think it is more likely that this is a deliberate false leak to uncover a leaker.
