Rod Rosenstein Skips Speaking Engagement After Unexpected White House Meeting
Breitbart ^ | 12 Apr 2018 | Ian Mason

Posted on 04/12/2018 4:10:34 PM PDT by mandaladon

Rod Rosenstein was unexpectedly seen leaving the White House Friday morning, then was noticeably absent from a press conference at which he was scheduled to appear, fueling speculation the Deputy Attorney General may be slated for the chopping block. “Unfortunately, Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein has been called away on another matter today, so [Acting Associate Attorney General Jesse] Panuccio will have the honor of introducing the attorney general later in our program,” acting DOJ Civil Rights Division head John Gore told reporters at a major press conference at the Main DOJ building in Washington, DC.

Rosenstein appeared on the program for the event – distributed to reporters that day – as scheduled to appear alongside Attorney General Jeff Sessions, HUD Secretary Dr. Ben Carson, and Secretary of Labor Alex Acosta to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the Fair Housing Act.

Hours earlier, reporters saw Rosenstein exiting the White House after an unexpected meeting. Some cited sources claiming he was there to discuss the ongoing controversy over the speed of document production for the House Judiciary Committee’s subpoena and other requests from Congress.

Why is taxpayer money being spent wasted on the "50th Anniversary of the Fair Housing Act"?

Only after he met w POTUS, he was told to ‘watch the water’, clean water from the Whitehouse must wreak havoc on a system used to drinking ‘Swamp Water’!

He was "unexpectedly" seen leaving the WH.

So he was not expected to leave after he got there?

Or the reporter wasn't expecting to see him exiting the WH?

Was his exit unexpected or was the sight of him unexpected?

They write these things like double entendres. It could mean anything.

“Maybe he was ill.’

Did anyone check to see if the President’s shoe was sticking out of his Azzz! I remember a line in “The Best LIttle Whorehouse in Texas,” where Burt Reynolds ( Sheriff Ed Earl) tells Dom DeLuise ( the scumball reporter) “I’m gonna knock you so flat, you’ll have to roll down your socks to $hit!”

"....I'm betting that Rosenstein has offered his resignation.....before the IG report comes out....."

I'm not a betting man except in golf but that sounds like a pretty good bet to me.

I hope that Trump gave him the LBJ treatment. Which means that Trump called him every name in the book and threatened to castrate him on the spot.

Article should read meeting was today, not Friday. Tomorrow is Friday the 13th - maybe RR will get canned.

President Trump might fire him but it’s too late! They got what they wanted by punting the ball over to those ny trump haters ..this is going to be a very long long witch hunt!! Brace yourselves for the barrage of leaks from the confidential papers they acquired in the unlawful raid and pray like you have never prayed before!

What about the document viewed Wed. evening by Nunes and Gowdy regarding initiating the Trump Russia investigation July 2016? Is it connected to a surprise meeting with Rosenberg Thur. morning?

I’m waiting for signals from Nunes, Gowdy and others to ascertain the likelihood that it was a setup. Not holding my breath though.....

I read excerpts of Comey’s windfart as well. Utterly unimpressive and dotted with childish excuses. Yes, childish is a good descriptor of Comey.

On a light note...I don’t know who cooked up that Rosenweasel meme, but every time now, EVERY time, I see or hear Rod Rosenstein’s name mentioned, I think Rosenweasel.

Et two, Sir LS of the S? 8<)

Comey did it:

““You can call us wrong, but don’t call us weasels. We are not weasels,” - Comey”
