I am not sure what the NY Times is trying to accomplish with this. Is it more fake news? Is it actually true news? Was Rosenstein just joking around at the time? Was everything taken out of context by the people, or one person in the room at the time? Is McCabe doing a "Hail Mary" to save his ass if he is the source?
If I were Trump, I would leave Rosentein in place right now. He could go for a twofer and fire him as well as Mueller if this is true. My feeling is, it is all come unraveling for the deep state now, and leave them in place to destroy themselves in the near future is the best option.....

I think the NYT is simply reporting the news. I watched some of this covered on TRMS last night.
What do you want us to say? The story is there, Rosenstein denies it. We’ll see what your Dear Leader does.

Seems to me the Press is not the enemy of the people as trump claims. The Press is the only ones doing their job. Not the president, not Congress.

I just received this email - If trump does fire either Mueller or Rosenstein, there will be demonstrations all over the country....like this one.
LOCATION: The Triangle across the street from the Co-op. Overflow to line up along the Kai-Tai side of Sims Way.
TIME: The Port Townsend Rally will begin hours after news breaks of a Mueller firing: If Mueller or Rosenstein is fired BEFORE 2 p.m. local time —> events will begin @ 5 p.m. local time If Mueller or Rosenstein is fired AFTER 2 p.m. local time —> events will begin @ noon local time the following day.
353 of us have signed up to show up and peacefully rally in PT. Sure hope it doesn't come to this, but if it does, we need to be ready.

We’ll see what your Dear Leader does. As far as the NYT covering the news.....it puts Trump in a bad place, because they might actually be telling the truth this time, aor they are putting the trap in place to get him to fire Rosentein and Mueller fueling the political divide to the tenth degree? I honestly believed Rosenstein's early denial of the accusation, but he did not deny the actual conversation had occurred. IMO, I think he might have honestly believed their was a crime committed in the beginning, especially if he was being fed the lies by members of the department. I imagine over time he realized there seems to be some problem whether anything happened as he was told, but became impossibly hard to dig out of that hole unless you admit the deep state employees are all liars and you have to fire dozens of people in the Justice department and FBI. That would be a hard pill to swallow for anyone. Have you seen the video clips of government employees discussing how to undermine President Trump that have been released as part of the never Trump movement?

Your source is JamesO’Keefe. That is the guy who was convicted of the manipulating videos to discredit Planned Parenthood. He is currently on probation. He has a long history of producing misleading videos to discredit organizations and people with whom he disagrees. See the link for more info You expect us to believe anything he produces? en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_O%27Keefe

Is it legit or do you think it is a Russian troll? Remember the Russians helped set up demonstrations prior to the 2016 election. I only trust emails from legit sources.
On a related note, I need to pop by the newly open Democratic party office in our county.

So the "deep state" is a couple of people who disclose policies ahead of their official public release and a young DOJ paralegal who publicly demonstrates against the administration and likely misuses governmental resources in helping her find where to protest? That is kinda the shallow end of the pool IM(not so)HO.

That is kinda the shallow end of the pool IM(not so)HO. I have to go with what is available. It is not like the three major networks or MSNBC or CNN are going to do an investigative investigation to willow out the underground never-Trumpers. Those news groups only work on finding quotes from insiders within the White House, and even then when they cannot find anything they just make it up anyway. Mike Pompeo gave a good interview the other day, talking about these traitors.

Utter nonsense. Nobody in the last administration worked in concert with foreign countries against the interests of the United States.

And then something like ordering the release of unredacted documents takes place. Were those who fought President Trump on that "creating havoc" or working to keep in check an individual who dangerously acts without understanding the full impact of his actions?

Creating havoc was left up to the DNC, Brennan, CIA and most of the leadership in the FBI. The DOJ itself is still in question.

The people trying to keep Trump from blowing things up are likely conservatives and Republicans. They look bad if he screws up. The boat has already sailed for the GOP on that issue, but some individuals probably think they can help save things and not deep-six their career.

I don't understand if President Trump is all the big man he campaigned he was, why don't he just fire them all? Isn't that what a great leader would do? Fire Jeff, fire Rod.....He has been in office long enough to quit the complaining to his base and have that swamp drained.

Evidently you have not watched any media in the last 21 months. Where do you think all of the supposed leaks from the WH came from? Either they were from anti- Trumpers or major media made them up. Evidently you are in the made them up camp....

Evidently you are in the made them up camp.... I read mostly, and I think most of the leaks are from Trump much like his practice as a business person. Unlike you, I think this WH is leaky because of Trump. Blame others if you want, but my belief is almost all "leaks" are actually sanctioned releases of info by Trump or his inner circle.
