  • Ah, the air is so much fresher here...
Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein told peers that he was angry over how President Trump used him to justify firing former FBI Director James Comey last year, The New York Times reported Friday.

Rosenstein has repeatedly confided to colleagues that the scandal damaged his reputation, according to four people familiar with the issue.

Publicly, the top Justice Department official has repeatedly defended the letter he penned condemning Comey’s job performance. But, internally, Rosenstein appeared conflicted on the matter, the Times reported.

It's called upholding the law and doing your job. Comey violated what he was bound to obey and those are the consequences.

This guy truly thinks he's the unnaccountable 4th branch of govt.
The Republic is lost.

Rosenstein is a liar.  And much, much worse.  Nothing he says, not one syllable, can be believed.

If this is true it condemns Rosenstein all the more. The IGs report makes Comey look like the piece of dog squeeze he is. Of course he needed firing.

We're talking about President Trump's nominated Deputy Attorney General, yes?  I don't know why NTers think the President is amazingly ill-equipped to solve the problems America faces.  Thank God President Trump had the testicular fortitude to fire this idiot long ago because he has the absolute right to do as President.

Much of the bad blood with Russia is caused by the Fake & Corrupt Russia Investigation, headed up by the all Democrat loyalists, or people that worked for Obama. Mueller is most conflicted of all (except Rosenstein who signed FISA & Comey letter). No Collusion, so they go crazy!

A Rigged System - They don’t want to turn over Documents to Congress. What are they afraid of? Why so much redacting? Why such unequal “justice?” At some point I will have no choice but to use the powers granted to the Presidency and get involved!

I also wonder why NTers think President Trump is an ineffective little whiner?

That really hurts, Wingnut.   I was actually hoping to get some advice/tips from you on delivering pizza.

Is it just me or is the sexual tension between us palpable?
