[Alas Babylon!]

Sessions’ recusal left Deputy AG Rod Rosenstein in charge of the bogus “Russia” probe, leaving him free to appoint Robert Mueller as special counsel despite the fact that no crime by the Trump campaign had been alleged and no intelligence pointed to Russian collusion.

They left out something that ALWAYS puzzled me.

BEFORE Rosenstein hired Mueller, he sent a letter to the President recommending the FBI Director, James Comey, be fired.

So Trump fires him.

THEN, the media says it is proof of collusion to fire Comey, so Rosenstein appoints Mueller as special counsel to investigate "this" and other matters.

So that right there is why there should NEVER have been a special counsel, let alone Bob Mueller, James Comey's BFF.

Anyway, if Rosenstein REFUSES to provide the documents to Congress Trump orders him to, then he WILL be fired, and Trump will have a non-obstruction of justice reason to do so.

You can take it to the bank that neither Rosenstein nor Wray will comply with an order to release documents. They will get an injunction from a friendly judge and it will have to be settled by the Supreme Court. We can only hope the Supremes don't invent a fourth independent branch of government in the DOJ.

Excellent points all.

If Rosenstein doesn’t comply, Trump has good reason to fire him.
