Why aren’t you calling for him to recuse himself from the Russia investigation given he signed off on the warrants and could be called as a witness?

Don’t you think he has a conflict of interest?

True. It's a tall order. This is what years and years of covered up corruption looks like from both parties whether by election or appointment.

Dems are complicit. The GAO report gives them all kinds of reason to continue investigating.
Instead they are out to kill it

Those are actually better than anything lol.

Today was just articles of impeachment. And they are richly deserved by Rosenweasel.

I doubt that it goes anywhere. DOJ thumbs its nose at congress and gets away with it.

Maybe if you dumped Nunes? DOJ knows exactly where any info goes once it is released.

You can tell the White House is getting very nervous.

The house cannot impeach. They need to set up articles of impeachment. Each article requires a majority vote. The process in a long one. They can set up an impeachment which goes to the Senate. In the Senate they need a 2/3rds vote. Do you right wing retards think that is possible?

They don't delve any farther than the headlines. Of course they don't realize this is theater.

The thing with Rosenweasel isn’t crazy.

Straight up fact, Rosenweasel has been defying congress. He’s the only person anyone can talk about impeaching without engaging in speculation or wishful thinking.

And if our government wasn’t jacked up the House would pass the articles of impeachment. He is a first rate weasel.

He's defying a small minority in Congress that is working to help trump's defense team.

As he should. Start a real investigation in Congress, and see what happens.

GOP lawmakers introduce articles of impeachment against Rod Rosenweasel

A group of conservative House lawmakers on Wednesday introduced articles of impeachment against Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, the top Department of Justice (DOJ) official overseeing special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation.

The introduction of the resolution is the latest sign of escalating efforts among conservatives to oust the DOJ’s No. 2 official.

Conservative members led by Reps. Mark Meadows (R-N.C.) and Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), along with nine co-sponsors, introduced the articles shortly after a meeting with DOJ officials concerning document production.

"For 9 months we’ve warned them consequences were coming, and for 9 months we’ve heard the same excuses backed up by the same unacceptable conduct. Time is up and the consequences are here. It’s time to find a new Deputy Attorney General who is serious about accountability and transparency,” Meadows, the head of the House Freedom Caucus and ally of President Trump, said in a statement.

“The DOJ is keeping information from Congress. Enough is enough. It’s time to hold Mr. Rosenstein accountable for blocking Congress’s constitutional oversight role,” said Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) in a statement.

The articles include a series of allegations against Rosenstein.

They charge that Rosenstein has a conflict of interest in Mueller's probe, stating that he is a “witness” that could be called in the ongoing investigation into potential abuse since he signed off on an FBI surveillance renewal application to wiretap Carter Page, a former adviser to the Trump campaign.

“As such, his conduct in authorizing the FISA surveillance at issue in the joint congressional investigation makes him a fact witness central to the ongoing investigation of potential FISA abuse,” read the articles of impeachment. “Deputy Attorney General Rosenstein’s failure to recuse himself in light of this inherent conflict of interest and failure to recommend the appointment of a second Special Counsel constitute dereliction of duty. Wherefore, Rod Rosenstein, by such conduct, warrants impeachment and trial, and removal from office.”

“Multiple times we’ve caught DOJ officials hiding information from Congress, withholding relevant documents, or even outright ignoring Congressional subpoenas — and now we have evidence that Mr. Rosenstein signed off on a document using unverified political opposition research as a cornerstone of a FISA application to spy on an American citizen working for the Trump campaign," Meadows continued, referring to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA).

They also allege that Rosenstein has “repeatedly failed to produce documents” requested by the House Judiciary Committee and House Oversight and Government Reform Committee that are investigating FBI and DOJ decision-making during the 2016 presidential election.

Rosenstein, they allege, has also “attempted to conceal certain facts” by overly redacting documents they requested.

The Justice Department declined to comment on the articles of impeachment, but hours before they were introduced, DOJ officials told a far different story.

Shortly before the 4 p.m. meeting between the DOJ officials and House lawmakers took place, Justice Department officials on Wednesday described in detail the steps they are taking to complete the outstanding document requests as requested by the heads of the House Judiciary and Intelligence committees.

Republicans say the FBI and DOJ have not provided all the documents they are seeking to review as part of the GOP-led investigations into the email server Hillary Clinton used while she was serving as secretary of State, as well as the FBI's decision to launch the federal investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election.

The DOJ officials, however, said Wednesday they have largely completed Congress's document requests, noting they are working with the lawmakers and their staff to give them the information they still want to review.

So far, the DOJ officials say they have given lawmakers access to 880,000 pages they've requested, and they continue to accept requests for new information related to House GOP probes.

The officials listed three congressional subpoenas, issued by House Republicans, that they say have either been fulfilled or that they are close to fulfilling.

One DOJ official noted that while the requests are historically high, they are working to respond to the lawmaker's records requests — and much of the responding is done quietly.

Totally symbolic.

Good luck trying to get a two-thirds senate conviction.

I fucking hate Republicans so much. They're a malignant cancer on our republic.

Breitbart News editor slams House Republicans who filed articles of impeachment against Rosenstein





Breitbart News editor Joel Pollak, a staunch backer of President Donald Trump, slammed House Republicans who this week filed articles of impeachment against Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein.

Reacting to impeachment articles filed by Reps. Mark Meadows (R-NC) and Jim Jordan (R-OH), Pollak questioned not only whether such a resolution would be successful, but whether it was even wise to consider in the first place.


Pollak isn’t the only conservative to question the wisdom of the impeachment resolution against Rosenstein, as Fox News legal analyst Andrew Napolitano called the effort “embarrassing” during a “Fox & Friends” appearance on Thursday.

“The constitution says that there’s a very very narrow basis for impeachment and that’s intentional,” he said. “If it were a broad basis people would be getting kicked out of office left and right. Treason, bribery or other high crimes and misdemeanors. When Bill Clinton was impeached, it was obstructing justice by lying under oath so it has to be something of that magnitude.”
