End it? They are cheering it on! Trump is hosing up their cash flow. Neither side is going to stop Muller or Rosenstein. Personally, I would make a speech that there is either 1 set of laws we all follow, or their are 3; one for the peons, one for the politicians and one for the president....the kind they have in 3rd world shitholes where people and families suddenly vanish. There is no reason why only the President should follow a Constitution that no one else follows!

It’s about time this MF’er is reminded who he works for.

Isn’t it awful, Rod, when someone treats you the same way that you treat Trump.

Breathtaking how arrogant these coup co-conspirators are...They know they have the backing of both parties, corrupt courts, the whole of the administrative state, the fakestream media and Jeff Sessions. No one to hold them to account.

Rod Rosenstein said this today:

“The way we operate in the Department of Justice, if we are going to accuse someone of wrongdoing, we have to have admissible evidence, and credible witnesses, we need to be prepared to prove our case in court. And we have to fix our signature to the charging document, and that is something that not everybody appreciates,” Rosenstein told the audience.”

How does the Dossier fit that Evidence?

I say make old Rosenstein Exhibit #1.

He was bragging on his Dept, and this should come back to bite him.

"Why are so many weasels in this whole story so ugly? Mueller, Comey,, Rosenstsein, Clapper....I’ll stop so I won’t use up bandwidth for FR."

It's not just the "small group" at FBI, they're just the ones that have been caught.

Many POTUS fans would likely lynch Rosenstein. The whole deep state, legal institutions, American heritage, rule of law, must give way to the mercurial genius that is Trump, as the see it. Who needs a US Constitution when you can make it all up as you go along?

Congress has the 'Constitutional' duty of oversight. You are so obsess with the man Trump, you have lost sight as to who threatened Rosy with impeachment. Are you a new immigrant? Because, you clearly have no clue, with the 'original intent' of the Constitution, as framed by the founders of this nation. Your primary choice was not even eligible to hold the office of president under 'original intent'... 'We the people' are government.

When members of a branch of federal government remind those in other branches that they can exercise those powers, that is called “separation of powers” rather than extortion.

IMPEACH him and be done with this talk talk talk talk talk talk charade. The deep state ain’t getting drained at a rate that we will even see a ring disappear in the bathtub of sludge.

The one man that could have killed this nonsense early on.

I dont know if I dislike him or McCain more now.

Both are traitors.

The moment it came out that Rosenstein signed one or more of the FISA warrant applications requesting covert surveillance of the Trump Campaign, he should have immediately been impeached for his failure to recuse himself or inform congress. I wonder if Sessions knew about his involvement before it was made public, because it certainly made him look like an idiot in retrospect...

Was it extortion when Comeystain came to Trump and said “I have this dossier about a pee-pee tape in Russia that would be damaging to your administration if the news ever got out (and it was funded by tens of millions from Hitlery Rotten Clinton’s campaign’s opposition research slush fund)”?

A lot of drama here but I would prefer action to talk from some quarter to deal the Department of Justice. The White House firing folks would be more direct and have immediate effect as opposed to talk of impeachment from unreliable Republican politicians.

Turn over the documents, and stop posturing.

All this out-of-control dragging-on insanity would have never happened had we not Useless Sessions enabling it.
Sessions should be fired asap and replaced by someone who would make Rosenweasel’s life worse than hell.
