Rod Rosenstein unloaded on former FBI Director James Comey in remarks to the Greater Baltimore Committee (GBC) on Monday evening, slamming Comey's turn as a "partisan pundit," reiterating that he deserved to be fired, and faulting him for trampling "bright lines that should never be crossed."
Rosenstein formally stepped aside as deputy attorney general two days ago. His speech specifically took aim at Comey's comments earlier this month implying that Rosenstein and Attorney General Bill Barr lacked the "inner strength" to "resist the compromises necessary to survive Mr. Trump."
Comey also derided Rosenstein's "character" and suggested his "soul" had been consumed "in small bites." The former FBI boss, who has taken to posting numerous photographs of himself in nature staring wistfully at trees and roadways since leaving public office, had been showered with media attention in recent months, and his memoir earned him over $2 million.
"Now, the former director is a partisan pundit, selling books and earning speaking fees while speculating about the strength of my character and the fate of my immortal soul," Rosenstein said. "That is disappointing. Speculating about souls is not a job for police and prosecutors. Generally, we base our opinions on eyewitness testimony."

Their behavior and message has become shrill, chaotic and erratic. Easy to see.
you saw my drama queen post? :) thanks!
Hang them all close together. They can be both wind chimes, and when they burst from all the knocking together in the wind, repulsive pinatas.
Burr and Barr will be busy little beavers until February. Say that three times real fast.

So.....Happy Birthday! Enjoy your day!
One thing we know for a FACT is that Rod signed off on an extension of the Page FISA warrant. Care to explain that without putting on a tin foil hat. And if Rod is such a good guy why did Barr get rid of him?
