WASHINGTON — The deputy attorney general, Rod J. Rosenstein, suggested last year that he secretly record President Trump in the White House to expose the chaos consuming the administration, and he discussed recruiting cabinet members to invoke the 25th Amendment to remove Mr. Trump from office for being unfit.

The UniParty/Swamp/deep state IS the government

maybe it is just the opposite. Given the turn in the B.K. rat fest...

They need to shift the publics attention away from the story as it burns.

SQUIRREL!

Day after the election whether the Rats win or the Rinos win...he needs to fire Roesenstein.

I am not convinced of that at this point. They certainly interact but the real forces of evil do not seem to let Congress in completely on their plans. I think they view Congress as a tool and detest them - a means to an end.

.Whoever it was, the White House has been bugged the whole time. Even phone conversations with other world leaders.

Of course it's been bugged.......who do you think you're dealing with?

ROTFLMAO!

CNBC reporting that Rosenstein says story is inaccurate.

He didn't suggest these things in the spring; it was summer instead.

So the main purveyor of fake news is now believable? Probably an attempt to get Trump to fire him.

Part of the Friday dump that will dominate the Sunday shows and deflect from the Kavanaugh debacle. Add to this the story of Cohen spilling his guts to Mueller.

[BushCountry]

Rosenstein’s denial is a bunch of weaselly lawyer jargon. I believe the story is true just by the way he has handled the Mueller probe (the latitude he gave the special prosecutor). His action show that he wants to take down President Trump.

How did we get all these losers in the government. They must have been willing to do the “dirty work” for congress for something. This is getting so old.

[EdnaMode]

You’re fired!

[HChampagne]

Gosh, I hope this does not distract from the Kavanaugh story.

CNBC reporting that Rosenstein says story is inaccurate.

Well if that does not work for Brett, sorry Rod!

[frnewsjunkie]

This nation has become complacent, lazy, and no knowledge of history or what makes a great nation and what destroys a once great nation.

Two generations have been lulled into a dangerous fragile safe zone, that nothing can take what they have.

[Col Frank Slade]

Maybe Trump has a mole inside the NYT.

[Lockbox]

Well if that does not work for Brett, sorry Rod!

[Rebelbase]

Trying to figure that out myself. What does the NYT have to win by implicating Rosenstein ?

It’s not like they are an organization with non partisan journalistic integrity.

[sevlex]

Suddenly the NYT is truthful?

I wonder if they just realized that Rosenstein is actually a “white-hat” and are now trying to neutralize him.

McCabe is specifically quoted as a source in this story. As is those who “viewed memos” from DOJ FBI officials (this is Comey’s MO)

This is revenge by Comey and McCabe and ???

likely motives: revenge against Rosenstein, disrupt Kavanaugh, get Trump, hurt Repubs in the election

If this story is believed, it works for all those motives.
