Trump to meet with Rosenstein, FBI director
The Hill ^ | 21 May 2018 | Jordan Fabian

Posted on 05/21/2018 11:24:23 AM PDT by Meet the New Boss

President Trump will meet with Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein and FBI Director Christopher Wray on Monday afternoon amid a burgeoning dispute with federal law enforcement over the Russia probe.

A White House official called the meeting "routine" but also said that Trump's demand for a federal investigation into whether the FBI improperly infiltrated his campaign will likely come up.

Director of National Intelligence Daniel Coats will also attend the meeting at the White House.

The Inspector General investigation that Rosenstein called for is a delaying tactic.

We need a non-swampy federal prosecutor appointed to use grand juries and a team of untainted FBI agents to investigate illegalities in the US government surveillance of Trump people and usage of intelligence for political purposes.

We already have Comey on the one hand claiming he got a FISA warrant on the Trump people based at least in large part on the credibility of Steele with respect to his phony dossier. But on the other hand in court in England, Steele testified he never vouched to the FBI for the credibility of the dossier.

Both need to be put under oath before a grand jury. As well as Strzok and Brennan and Halper and everyone else involved in this.

Professor Mifsud, if he is still alive, needs to be found and placed in witness protection if necessary, in order to give the whole story of how Trump people were set up and whether he himself was the claimed "Russian agent" who shuttled and laundered Hillary-produced phony dossier material to Steele.

Trump needs to wait until they arrive and then with his attorneys present inform these two creatures they are being recorded in case anything leaks.

Sessions must be busy with a pot bust. That seems to be the only thing he is concerned about.

Sessions busy with a pot bust


No,with a pot roast.
He has oven mitts on and can’t answer his official calls on the cell phone. Can’t press the buttons.

Someone else will have to take responsibility.

Say, little girl, you knew all about Russia hacking Hillary's emails, am I right?

I'll take your silence as a "yes."

Agree with all of your points.

If I were Trump I’d consider swamp critters wray and rosenslime as hostile actors. Rudy might be a good addition in the room, as well as Coates.

Taking a nap again. Don’t disturb his beauty sleep. He and Clapper need it.

Sessions would have to first formally un-recuse himself in order to participate in any discussions of this matter.

I see all the "armchair" presidents are checking in this afternoon.

You know, the ones that feel they know better than Trump and so presume to tell him how to run the country.

Hmm, ya think? "Ah, what shall we talk about today?"

Arm Chair Presidents? You miss the point.

They are enhancing their self esteem by patting themselves on the back and reinforcing the Free Republic groupthink

The problem here is that the GOP leadership is not helping Trump.

At best, their attitude is “OK, genius, let’s see if you can get out of this”. At worst, they’ve promised Mueller impeachment if he can give them a fig leaf.

Any nefarious dealing by the FBI/DOJ are already known by Coats.

And he can present the info to Wray and Rosenstein and Trump can tell them to set about proving it to the extent as can be entered into court.

Trump’s going to demand to see some unredacted memos.

Mr. President:

Have two witnesses and record the whole thing!

Without that, they will lie, lie, lie!

Oh, and then fire there butts!
