"I think RR just went in the direction of the political winds. As long as it looked like HRC would win he went that way. Once Trump won and it was clear to insiders that the entire collusion narrative was predicated on lies and illegal intel ops he went that way."

Pretty much one of the definitions of a Weasel.

. who says they didn’t use them against the Romney Campaign in 2012?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

They didn’t need to use anything against Romney, he was a willing Designated Loser.
It was the tea party that was getting the attention in that time period, mostly by the IRS.

I’m not sure Rosenstein was a snake as much as being incompetent or spineless. Will Chamberlain posted a great analysis on why Mueller was shut down. If you recall, Giuliani was very optimistic that the administrations argument that it was a stretch to apply a particular law against Trump. It was only after Barr was hired that Mueller was instructed that he was chasing his own tail.

I still say if it walks like a weasel, talks like a weasel, and acts like a weasel, it is a weasel.

That means RR was a snake. Whatever latitude RR gave Mueller was in the scope memo. A scope memo RR never would think would become public, and which apparently included a green light for Mueller to pursue obstruction of justice.

Even now, after all the revelations, that scope memo still has not been publicized.

I'll be shocked if RR turns out to be a white hat.

I thought “Rosenweasel” was already one of his nicknames.

...who says they didn't use them against the Romney Campaign in 2012?

Dirty Harry (the guy who arrived in DC a pauper and left a multi millionaire) has already admitted to having lied about Romney's taxes. In fact,he expressed pride in the effectiveness of his deceit.

Don’t know for sure what you mean; whether you consider RR a saint or a snake; but keep in mind who he’s married to. Her name escapes me right now, but she’s a hi-power lawyer who has successfully defended many lowlifes in the hi level political world and got them off Scott free.

Lisa Barsoomian
Mrs. Lisa Barsoomian is an attorney; but most importantly is that she is the wife of Rod Rosenstein, Deputy Attorney General for the United States Department of Justice. Prior to that, he served as the United States Attorney for the District of Maryland. Surely you don’t want to read about that, therefore check out the 5 facts we found about Mrs. Barsoomian Rosenstein

50-year-old Mrs. Barsoomian was born on January 15, 1968. She is the daughter of Armenian immigrants.
Together they have two beautiful daughters; Julie, 18, and Allison, 15.
She graduated from Georgetown Law.
Moreover, according to reports, she represented Hillary Clinton, between 1991 to 2017; she also represented Bill Clinton, James Comey, Barack Obama, Kathleen Sebellius and Robert Muller.
Furthermore, Lisa Barsoomian Rosenstein works for R. Craig Lawrence.

I remember some time ago someone posted a YouTube video on FR that was close to an hour in length I believe. My memory is fuzzy on the exact contents of the video but it was something to the effect that Trump had a big plan in place that was to bring certain politicians and corruption to justice. Gosh, wish I had that vid handy as it was interesting to watch.

That has been alluded to that the Trump campaign was not the only one that was being spied upon. I bet AG Barr has a full plate of investigations going on.

When will Romney find out his 2012 campaign was spied upon as well...

That headline says about the same thing as the other one. This one says that RR defends Comey’s FIRING that it WAS NOT obstruction. The other one says RR unloads on coming. Both are in the same vein which is RR is trashing Comey.
