Former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe accused former Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein of giving “false” testimony Wednesday about James Comey’s memos documenting his interactions with President Trump.

During his appearance before the Senate Judiciary Committee, Rosenstein suggested that McCabe should have shared details about former FBI Director Comey’s memos on his conversations with the president earlier, claiming that he didn’t tell him about their existence until right before they were leaked.

Asked whether McCabe lied to him, Rosenstein testified: "Lying is when you ask someone a direct question and get a false answer. Candor is when you’re forthcoming with information someone needs to know. I believe McCabe should have recognized that when I became acting AG [overseeing the Russia probe], I needed to know about Comey’s memos and he didn’t tell me until a couple of hours before they showed up in the New York Times."

"Barr seems to be getting to them. He must have some dirt to use to convict some."

I doubt that the guy that forged an email in order to justify a FISA warrant will want to go down alone.

I thought I heard something to the effect that McCabe was not going to go down alone.

It would sweeten the pot quite a bit if we found out in the next couple of weeks that Barr has been investigating Antifa since he was appointed and that indictments start flowing with charges that merit life in the pen. The coup plotters just might start to panic.

You could see how careful Rosenstein was being...and the Dems are nervous too - else they wouldn’t have wasted so much time rehashing long-debunked claims...several of which even Rosenstein lobbed back at them, and going way off topic with their ‘concern for the suffering of Americans because....virus.
