Memos written by Andrew McCabe, then the acting FBI director, say deputy attorney general Rod J. Rosenstein suggested he secretly record his talks with President Trump, and that Rosenstein discussed possibly trying to remove him from office, according to people familiar with the matter.
The account, first reported by the New York Times, paints Rosenstein as so concerned in May 2017 in the wake of Trump’s firing of then-FBI director James B. Comey that he contemplated secretly recording conversations with the president. He also initiated discussions about invoking the 25th amendment, which details how the Cabinet can decide whether a president is no longer able to discharge the duties of the job, one of the McCabe memos said.
McCabe’s lawyer, Michael Bromwich, said in a statement that his client “drafted memos to memorialize significant discussions he had with high level officials and preserved them so he would have an accurate, contemporaneous record of those discussions. When he was interviewed by the special counsel more than a year ago, he gave all of his memos — classified and unclassified — to the special counsel’s office. A set of those memos remained at the FBI at the time of his departure in late January 2018. He has no knowledge of how any member of the media obtained those memos.

Woo Hoo!!!!
They’re eating their own!!!!!!
Sessions is the insurance policy. He chose rosenstein as his DAG. Rosenstein appointed the mueller coup.
None of this farking bullsh!t happened by chance.
Not all FBI is bad. I say we took the good ones and put ‘em on a ship out in the Atlantic. Then with them outta the way, we go all out after the corrupt ones, no mercy at all. Hunt them all down....
“discussed possibly trying to remove him from office”
Was that why he wanted to record Trump...?
Joe DiGenova for Assistant Attorney General.
They are lining up to shiv Rosenstein. They want him to take all the weight. The NYT threw him under the bus this AM, after everybody last week rising to his defense to keep him in the job.
Panic.
Are you okay?
5.56mm
Otherwise, it seems they would have a easier time showing proof that E.T.’s exist?
Something different is going on.
The NYT and WP are attacking the DOJ?
Is it finally possible that their lawyers have told them they could be charged with Obstruction?
They really, really, really want that New World Order and the only way to get there is to complete the Bush Plan for North Mexico (aka USA), flooding the country with foreigners to dilute the citizens to the point that it appears we voted to give away our country by giving amnesty ti millions of fraudulently documented foreigners and subsuming it to the UN through treaty after treaty.
Our freedoms and sovereignty are the impediment that they have spent 30 years working to remove.
Trump completely disrupted that.
They are determined to keep him from securing the border and restoring the rule of law.
Well, exactly, good lord who would expect FReepers to swallow a line tossed out by the fired and disgraced Andy McCabe hook line and sinker?
RR explained how his remark was made as a sarcastic offhand comment.
Remember that if Trump wanted RR fired, he’d be fired. Think!
Sounds like McCabe took lessons from Comey.
Pretty sure a 14 foot john boot would safely move all the good ones in one trip.
“They are lining up to shiv Rosenstein. They want him to take all the weight.”
Nah. They is no way to cauterize this massive conspiracy of high treason.
*There
Something VERY different !
