WASHINGTON (AP) — Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein is denying a report in The New York Times that he suggested last year he secretly record President Donald Trump in the White House to expose chaos in the administration.

Rosenstein says the story is “inaccurate and factually incorrect.”

He never did this. He’s a swamp weasel but he’s too smart to ever take that kind of personal risk. Now, I can see him engineering a surveillance operation on Trump, but nothing as James Bond as wear a wire himself.

Those shiny dress shoes slowly swinging and twisting slightly in the cool breeze. What an image.

Levin is all over this. It's crystal clear to him (for a variety of reasons if you stop to think about it a bit) this is a set-up. Democrats are hoping against hope Trump will fire Rosenstein before the election, thus assuring a huge Democrat win which, with control of the House, the first order of business will be Trump's impeachment for obstruction.

If Trump wants to fire Rosenstein (and there are myriad reasons to do so), do it after the election.

Personally, I think Trump and his legal team are far too clever to fall for this.

Interesting to me, is that we have heard from neither Jeff Sessions NOR President Trump.

TWEET: 21 Sept: George Papadopolous: The British and Australian governments’ attempt to sabotage the Trump campaign is about to backfire in a spectacular fashion...

TWEET: 21 Sept: George Papadopolous: The day that BRITISH intelligence source, Stefan Halper, lured me to London so that the British MI6 could spy on the campaign, the British Ministry of Foreign Affairs invited me to their offices to talk about Trump and what a threat him supporting Breexit was.

17 Sept: Spectator Australia: Tinker, tailor, Downer, spy?
by David Long
Papadopoulos says he doesn’t remember saying anything to Downer about Russia. Downer is reported as saying now that they only had a single drink and a brief discussion. After that discussion, Downer reported back to Australia and that information was conveyed to the FBI, presumably at the insistence of prime minister Malcolm Turnbull...

And ratting to the FBI on the future President of the USA with false information might just be the reason that Malcolm Turnbull got such a swift kick in the balls from Trump during that first telephone call...

In one report, Downer, possessed of Papadopoulos’s information, passed it on to Elizabeth Dibble at the US London embassy. According to Fairfax, Downer passed the information back to Australian authorities who then passed it along to their American counterparts. And it is reported, that Downer told The Australian that he had sent an official cable about what was said to Canberra within a couple of days of the meeting with Papadopoulos...

It is highly probable that Downer did both” ratted to Elizabeth Dibble and sent a cable to Canberra. But Canberra is also reputed to have informed the FBI and that would not have happened, if it did, without the knowledge of Malcolm Turnbull...

The question that raises, however, is, whether Downer was authorised by the Commonwealth government to make that contact, or whether it was a freelance job?

We don’t know, do we, because no one has bothered to make him give sworn evidence or has asked the Australian government whether the contact was part of Downer’s brief. It’s moments like this that you wish our Senators interests went a little bit further than their parochial back fence. Such an enquiry would probably help to repair the relationship between the US President and Australia that Downer’s actions jeopardised.

Malcolm Turnbull was kicked out by his own party in recent weeks, and is sulking in his million-dollar apartment in Central Park West, NYC. call him in for questioning.
