Newt Gingrich Says You Must Read The Rosenstein MEMO Telling President Trump To Fire James Comey.
IWB ^ | Ruby Henley

Posted on 04/24/2018 5:01:42 AM PDT by davikkm

The American people should read the Rosenstein memo sent to Trump before he fired Comey. Newt Gingrich just announced today: “Let the country, through Sunday talk shows, deal with the memo. It’s devastating. It’s clear that if you got that memo and you’re the president, you would have fired Comey,” Gingrich said.

Gingrich was referring to the three-page memo that Rosenstein wrote in May 2017 after Trump announced he had fired Comey, entitled “Restoring Public Confidence in the FBI.”

Rosenstein wrote that he “cannot defend the Director’s handling of the conclusion of the investigation of Secretary Clinton’s emails, and I do not understand his refusal to accept the nearly universal judgment that he was mistaken.” thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/384358-gingrich-trump-mishandled-rosenstein-memo-on-comey

The Comey book tour seems to have suddenly gone away. Vanishing isn’t an easy thing when you’re a 6’9” empty suit. Check the drapes.

Check the roof, to make sure he's not gonna jump... and check the garage, to make sure he's not parked in there with the car running.

They never thought she'd lose...

So true Re her never losing. Comey thought he was clearing the decks for her , Lynch, all the nefarious dealings of Obama. The whole Comey memo fiasco is the insurance policy of strozek , et al. Muller is the carrier insuring theirvloss while collecting premiums from us in the form of our tax dollars for his wild goose chase

Yeah, he should have released this. It would have taken a lot of heat off himself.

I don't get the whole concept of personally written memorandum as being something of evidence? People at all levels in an organization write memos all the time. Most are just posturing crap.

When I get a memo I read three things before I read the content. Who wrote it? Who is copied on it? And the subject?

Why are memos so important to everyone? They are more like "Dear Diary".

Sessions is the fool and idiot in this whole play. He recused himself from the beginning, which means as a leader, he simply abrogated all responsibility. He allowed the bureaucrats and insiders below him to simply operate without any control, and play to their own biases and interests. Sessions is an example of how NOT to lead.

Until someone is charged, it means nothing.

Well yes. but Trump should have fired Rosenweasel the moment he used the firing as an excuse to make Comey’s BFF the SC. It was an obvious set up and Sessions just let it happen. The disloyalty is breathtaking.

James Comey is 6”8” tall -— yet he’s still such a small man.

Wrong, Rosenstein set the whole thing in motion, it was part of the plan to fire Comey and then appoint Mueller to investigate everything. Do you really think Comey was hurt by Trump firing him, not at all as demonstrated by his comments and book tour. After all Comey has millions stashed away.

This country is living the biggest scheme ever to unseat a President and some republicans are so stupid they cannot see it. SAD!

Because when you send out a memo, it is to certain people and states certain Things. It is not at all a 'dear diary' entry, it's an official, if informal, communication to people other than yourself. And as an FBI agent, he is required to maintain such records. He is trying to claim the memos weren't memos, but just diary notes to himself. In which case he wouldn't be required to maintain records. BUT, the wording of them clearly show them to be official communication that he was supposed to keep as an official FBI record.
