Mark Levin: Don’t Fire Rod Rosenstein; New York Times Article May Be a Setup
Breitbart ^ | September 21,2018 | Mark Levin

Posted on 09/21/2018 5:03:00 PM PDT by Hojczyk

Radio host Mark Levin warned fellow conservatives on Friday evening that they should not rush to conclusions about the New York Times‘ latest story alleging that Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein had plotted against President Donald Trump.

He warned that Trump’s enemies might be trying to goad him into firing Rosenstein before the midterm elections by leaking information from memoranda created by former Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe, who was fired in March for lying.

In addition, Levin cautioned conservatives to consider why the Times — with its record of inaccurate reporting on the Trump administration — would have wanted to expose a threat to Trump. He pointed out several left-wing canards in the article, such as the claim that Trump had asked former FBI director James Comey to end the investigation of National Security Advisor Michael Flynn.

Levin suggested that McCabe, or Mueller — or Mueller’s deputy, Andrew Weismann — had clear motives to leak the claims about Rosenstein to the Times — claims that were tellingly absent from Lisa Page’s contemporaneous notes about the meetings.

“They have absolutely nothing on the President of the United States. They are trying to push their agenda. They are there for one reason and one reason only — to write the report in hopes of impeaching the president with a Democrat Congress,” Levin said.

“The Special Counsel’s office … would like nothing more than the President of the United States to fire Rosenstein to claim that he is truly obstructing an investigation, trying to influence their investigation, and then write it up as, effectively, as in Watergate, a ‘Saturday Night Massacre’ of sorts.

“In other words, it’s a setup of the president,” Levin concluded, adding: “The president must not fire Rosenstein, certainly not prior to the midterm election. That’s what they want.”

These days I’d believe that except the Democrats aren’t that bright but someone else out of left field might be.

Then again DJT is a match for the best of them.

Of course this is a set up. The deep state corruption is on parade for all to see. These bad actors must be purged from the government. They can set up their own blogs and say whatever they want. But, I am not willing to pay their salaries and I’m not willing to condone those who are unwilling to follow their oaths.

There was never a good time to fire him. Levin is wrong as usual. We had a precious few years to wrest control of our 4 trillion dollar corrupt stasi state and that was with ALL HANDS ON DECK. Jeff Sessions’ treachery really farked us—Bad. The GOP’s treachery really farked us—Bad.

No, Trump needs to bring the hammer down NOW!! Let the chips fall where they may. Fire them all and convene military tribunals. If dems get control and try to impeach, it will be go time anyways. If the repukes try to impeach, same.

I tend to agree as well. Rosenweasel should’ve never been hired and should’ve at a minimum been fired for appointing a special counsel without basis, but now Trump probably has to hold tight through the midterms.

I agree. I believe this story is either by McCabe because he found out recently that there’s a grand jury out on him and he told people through the media awhile back that if he goes down, he’s taking a lot of people with him, seemly starting with Rosenstein here getting fire or this is from Mueller camp because they have nothing and they wished to continue on in perpetuity after midterms, so a peek into obstruction of justice for firing Rod no matter how ridiculous must be looked into

Could be..Im NO fan of Rosenweasel..but I think the timing of this is VERY Suspicious..I think this is an attempt to piss of Trump make him fore Rosenstein BEFORE the midterms, and then the left will call for his impeachment in case they get the House..wait til AFTER the midterms, if the GOP keeps the house, then fire the prick

I agree with Mark.

It’s a set up.

Now, consider the desperation of the Left/Mueller to “Leak” this to the NYT?

I get the impression that Rosenstammer is just a cake eating bureaucrat and at some point may just throw up his hands and walk over to the White House and provide them with a full briefing.

Rosenstammer was just thrown under the bus by Mueller/McCabe.

“Rosenstammer was just thrown under the bus by Mueller/McCabe.”

I doubt that. Rosenhummer gave Mueller and his cabal their cushy special counsel jobs. They are in it to the end. High treason co-conspirators. Levin is full of it.
