Trump summons Rosenstein to White House amid demands to release information on Mueller probe


In the Oval Office Monday, Trump will meet with Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, FBI Director Christopher Wray, and Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats, Sanders said.


The meeting was scheduled last week, Sanders said — before Trump made his demand Sunday.

"I hereby demand, and will do so officially tomorrow, that the Department of Justice look into whether or not the FBI/DOJ infiltrated or surveilled the Trump Campaign for Political Purposes - and if any such demands or requests were made by people within the Obama Administration!" Trump tweeted.

2. The subject of the investigation is not allowed to determine the scope of the investigation

And Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein was very specific about the DoJ
not releasing information during an investigation in a speech he gave a few months
ago. He sited the precedence of previous A.J. Robert Jackson.

Hang on tight here comes a Constitutional crisis.

.... was sworn in because as told them that was a hill worth dying for. Trump is a
mobbed up con man who stole the White House along with other elections w/Russian,
republican, and other nations and parties help.

That election didn't pass the smell test from the get go and now Trump is trying to
hide his crimes with the help of Fox News by changing the subject to investigating
the investigators.

BTW if Trump and company didn't commit any crimes then why should the be worried
about what "a spy" would find.

Is this fool for real? I mean who does that? Rosenstein said before he wasn't giving him anything. If it's fake then why are you worrying about whats in it?
