RosenWeasel needs to be tried for Treason for signing the last FISA renewal after Trump became POTUS using the Dossier that they had at least 9 months to verify, but apparently made no progress on.

Rosenstein is a white hat. He was granted immunity from Sessions to after the Deep State without suspicion.

I’m serious...

Fire everybody from Sessions on down. Enough. The DoJ serves at the pleasure of the President. It’s time they find out exactly what that means. This country cannot survive a coup by the Deep State.

Hope so, because seriously that branch is about to snap. The natives are getting damned restless.

The House Freedom Caucus is the only thin line of defense of the president. They will become at risk next.

We lose Rock-a-bye Midterms and that bow breaks and baby will fall.

How is it extortion when all you want is the guilty party punished.

Someone needs to go and wake Jeff Sessions from his nap.

Things are getting serious.

You have insider knowledge of this? Because that’s a real stretch.

Meanwhile, House conservatives, who have been calling for a second special to investigate allegations of bias at the FBI, have begun drafting a resolution that calls for the impeachment of Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, the top DOJ official overseeing special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation.

The articles include allegations that Rosenstein violated federal law by refusing to comply with a congressional subpoena that was part of Congress’s efforts to obtain documents about FBI surveillance during the election, intentionally stalling document production for congressional investigations into possible government misconduct and failing to enforce key laws and protocols.

The impeachment and removal of DAG Rod Rosenstein will cause the resignation of AG Jeffrey Sessions.

At that point, President Trump can replace Sessions with an AG of his choice--perhaps Rudy Guiliani or Joe DiGenova--and this Mueller travesty can be wound up in a week.

The President should then move forward with a new Special Counsel and a deep, thorough investigation of the actual crimes committed by the gangsters of the Obama administration.

This transition from Mueller's ugly fantasyland to a surgical investigation into the cancer-ridden guts of the Obama years needs to commence as rapidly as possible.

‘The criminals are very bold...’

Because Sessions is very weak.
