Radio host Mark Levin warned fellow conservatives on Friday evening that they should not rush to conclusions about the New York Times latest story alleging that Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein had plotted against President Donald Trump.
He warned that Trumps enemies might be trying to goad him into firing Rosenstein before the midterm elections by leaking information from memoranda created by former Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe, who was fired in March for lying.
In addition, Levin cautioned conservatives to consider why the Times with its record of inaccurate reporting on the Trump administration would have wanted to expose a threat to Trump. He pointed out several left-wing canards in the article, such as the claim that Trump had asked former FBI director James Comey to end the investigation of National Security Advisor Michael Flynn.
Levin suggested that McCabe, or Mueller or Muellers deputy, Andrew Weismann had clear motives to leak the claims about Rosenstein to the Times claims that were tellingly absent from Lisa Pages contemporaneous notes about the meetings.
They have absolutely nothing on the President of the United States. They are trying to push their agenda. They are there for one reason and one reason only to write the report in hopes of impeaching the president with a Democrat Congress, Levin said.
The Special Counsels office would like nothing more than the President of the United States to fire Rosenstein to claim that he is truly obstructing an investigation, trying to influence their investigation, and then write it up as, effectively, as in Watergate, a Saturday Night Massacre of sorts.
In other words, its a setup of the president, Levin concluded, adding: The president must not fire Rosenstein, certainly not prior to the midterm election. Thats what they want.

I like the way you think! lol.
The President is a champion of the Art of Timing and keeping RR in his job means he HAS to testify any time it is required
This strategy is fine as long as we keep the house but what if we don't? Then it's too late. It's fine to be confident in keeping the house but the President needs cover in case we don't. Do you really want to risk it all on these midterms? Because if the President does not fire Sessions and Rosenstein and we lose the Midterms his entire presidency is going to be over. If he gets rid of them before and can get an acting AG that can put prosecutorial heat on the deep state the President could survive until 2020 then start over. If the President remains on defense and we lose the house it's over.
What makes you think that we are going to get All we want, when we want?
Right off the bat, when the Slimes said theiranonymous sources made the claim against Rosenstein, it smelled like a dirty Dem. What is the answer to this? Unfortunately we do not have an AG who is willing to do his job, so that will leave the President to act. If he got rid of Sessions months ago, maybe the country would be on track again.
I actually have a theory for this.
The Times stepped WAY over the line when they published the anonymous op ed. They are very concerned they could be implicated if it gets investigated. What they are doing is trying to give the appearance of being unbiased to provide cover for what could possibly be criminal on their part for the anonymous op ed hit piece.
Not sure what you mean.
Keeping RR in his job as Acting AG means that he DOESN'T have to testify.
He's the top dog at the DOJ on all matters connected to the Deep State.
You are incorrect. If he is fired then he does not have to.
That was why McCabe was not immediately fired.

Finally someone gets it
Don’t need to fire him.
Just suspend him with pay, and don’t reinstate him until investigations and conclusions are done. But then, by the time investigations and conclusions are done, it will be sometime next year, and firing Rosenstain will be easier.
He doesn't have to testify now because he controls the DOJ on all of these Deep State matters.
All the US attorneys answer to Rosenstein on all matters.
Horowitz answers to Rosenstein on these matters.
Rosenstein doesn't answer to the recused Sessions on these matters.
If we had an AG, RR would already be in handcuffs.
I agree - hard to believe Andrew McCabe and the New York Times would do us a ‘favor’ by getting this information out on Rosenstein...
Odd thing to say since Im guessing you probably havent listened to him in three years
He answers to the Congress above all.
#13, Would you believe either one of them, esp. McCabe?
Notes can be created later and backdated. Wouldn’t put it past them.
And you would be wrong.
