The long-awaited showdown between the Justice Department and Congress is finally here.
It started late Friday afternoon. While the rest of the country was parsing the just-released report on the FBI from the Justice Departments inspector general, senior congressional leaders and selected committee chairmen quietly met with FBI Director Christopher Wray and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein at a secure location in the basement of the Capitol.
At issue was Justice and FBIs continuing defiance of congressional subpoenas. At the top of this list is the demand from the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence for documents about why and whether the FBI had an informant insinuating himself with Trump campaign officials before the Russia investigation officially started.

I think Pres.Trump is out ahead of our domestic enemies, he has to deal with it behind the scenes and at, unfortunately a much slower pace. With our Intl foes, China trade & expansionism, N Korea funny looking pudgy guy with Missiles nukes & no economy, Iran, Crazy turbin tops with nuke aspirations, expansion, and a, Death to America tude. Saudi Arabia, massive corruption among the Tribe, nasty international influence & goat humping when no one is looking. Mehico with its invasion of us, and narco economy,etc he has to be (and is, thankfully for us and the world) bold, decisive and unwavering. He’s demonstrated these traits repeatedly. Unfortunate for us, when it comes to our own backyard, it’s a much different game he must play.
Lots more threads coming loose, a few new names coming out, and more news cycles seeping this scandal into the public consciousness. Peter Strzok escorted out of the FBI building on Friday? Maybe more pieces are ready to fall soon.
Maybe this is what that Congresswoman was talking about on TV at the Horowitz hearing, when she said that Republicans were going to try to fire Rod Rosenstein this Friday.
So Paul Ryan us really offering three more deadlines.
So Paul Ryan us really offering three more deadlines.
Runor is that he may be gone Friday. If not, we do this Monday.
How you going to get two-thirds of the Senate to convict? Hell if we could get just the GOP members of the Senate to play ball, Trump could simply fire him in his own without fear of getting impeached himself.
.
Anyone paying attention can tell theyre going to try to take out Trump, and they believe thats what their mission is.
If Strzok has said the slighest thing about Hillary, his co-workers wouldve reported him and he wouldve be fired long ago.
They didnt want to look at his personal phone or Computer - for a good reason.

You people really crack me up. None of you know what is going on at the DOJ.
My theory is that Rosenstein was given blanket immunity to go after the Deep State, while Sessions did a head fake so that the DOJ wouldn’t appear politicized.
LOL, So what’s the weather like on your planet?
Well said. The stakes are high. His domestic enemies are the most dangerous. They are willing to end American sovereignty and “fundamentally transform” or destroy its culture.
Exactly right, which is why the game is slow and arduous, we all wish it was over yesterday, but we should be down on our knees, thankful for a man like this, because it is for all the marbles.
So we're looking at what, some time in 2025?
Thanks.
As a first step, cut the FBI budget by 50%. You would think Americas elected representatives would be more concerned about an attempted coup
“Comey letting Hillary off was bad enough but the ‘devastating’ IG report that wasn’t gives us a glimpse of how far gone we are. “
Exactly. The radical left are in firm control of our ‘administrative’ state, our corrupt courts and the fakestream media. They have something on most of the so called republicans in the Kabuki party, too.
Ill read about it in the Enquirer for free while I wait in-line at Wallmart...
He’s actually Jeff Sessions.
Anyone else hear that??
Yes! I heard it.
There are rumors swirling around that some 'breaking news' is coming on Friday. I have no idea what this is all about though...
Methane storm brewing
