Well, when I read what MSNBC had said, I knew he was going to.

MSNBC’s information is generally known to reveal truth by painting a picture around it.

According to the New Yorker, it’s possible he has resigned.

No, he needs Rosenthal to be gone. Then maybe they can get rid of the rest of the coup members. Keep in mind that McCain was part of the coup, so there are coup members in other branches, too. Then there’s Omarosa….who was she working with? I vote for getting rid of Fiona Hill. With that resume, it’s incomprehensible that she was hired.

"Rosenstein has been “Headed to the White House” for quite a while according to Fox News."

He could get there faster, but he doesn't like to fly.

Firing Rosey might be a mistake. Trump can keep him under wraps at the DOJ, maybe even demote him. If he’s dumped he will join the punditry at MSM and become a hero to the left, which is not needed weeks before the mid terms.

Speculation and rumors do not raise the level of the conversation. Rod Rosenstein is very much a creature of the Swamp, and he sincerely believes it will protect him. As of the present time, he is entirely correct in that assumption. Unless there is sufficient evidence to be made public of either a dead girl or a live adolescent boy in his bed, not much of anything will touch him.

For sure his immediate boss, Jeff Sessions, is not making the right moves here. What pictures of obscene little secrets do the Swamp denizens have on Sessions?

Nobody just walks away.

Drudge says he not resigning - that he wants to get fired... If Trump fires the quisling democrats will use it as ‘obstruction’ if they take over congress.

Trump is in New York, so Rod won’t be meeting with him.

Maybe with the chief of staff...

Rosenstein has been “Headed to the White House” for quite a while according to Fox News.

It's a long walk. Nobody will give him a ride. You know how hard filth like that is to get out of car fabric.

He should be given a fair choice; either the firing squad, or he really gets in trouble.

Obstruction of justice in what? A witch hunt that has proven illegal and un-Constitutional all along? Or do we just let that illegal activity continue?

Stopped for a bite on the way? DC power lunches take a long time.


And usually include about 4 martinis.

It’s been more than half an hour now and Rosenstein still hasn’t arrived at the WH. Maybe he’s hitchhiking and no one will give him a ride.

Doubt anything happens but a slap on the wrist.

However, if he is out the door MAKE SURE TO TAKE HIS CLEARANCE AND HIS COMPUTERS AND IPHONES AND PAT HIM DOWN FOR WH PENS.

Maybe Kelly has a big pile of evidence to show the weasel.

These are the documents we are going to use to prosecute you and hang you for treason.

That would make my day!
