I think Darth Vader said the same thing in one of those movies...

Burecreatic resistance to such absurdities could have easily been predicted.

The only one that has actually silenced people in the Press, have been the Communist Democrats and their henchmen.

I thought that last night but now I believe it happened. Andy McCabe's memos from the time were the source.

This could be an example of a false story put out to influence the upcoming elections, as the NYT warned us of. Or it could be evidence of an attempted coup and further evidence of the FBI's and DOJ's politicization.

But it is one or the other.

Or it could just be Rod Rosenstein running his mouth.

If you could clarify that it would be helpful.

The only mouth running he's done is to deny it. If he's right, it's the NYT that's running false stories.

No one believes that except you and Fawn Hannity. "It's a trap". By the way, you wouldn't be interested in buying a bridge would you?

It appears to be that this was leaked by a member of the Trump camp to give him a reason to fire Rosenstein.

The timing is quite suspicious.
