inspector general s report, that could come out next year. there needs to be a special counsel according to a number of sources that i ve spoken with, there needs to be special counsel in order for this not to be a two tiered justice system. sean: so well said. there s a reason weisbrod rosenstein has been obstruction congress and in my judgment obstructing justice because he s knee-deepp in all of this. he signed off on the renewal without sean: of the fourth buys fisa. that s right. speaker brad rosenstein is engaged in a row i think is a very deliberate cover-up. he s not on the covering of the wrongdoing at the fbi and department of justice, and by the way, taking no action against bruce ohr for what he did, he s also covering up his own role. sean: 25 people, top people, between the fbi and doj, that if either been fired, demoted, or resigned. top people. this is not rank and file. and ing was wondering, i think america should binder tonight, again, we go from russia
trump for 100 days on a 2005 tax case nothing to do with russia? why isn t hillary indicted by this time when we know she committed numerous felonies? one of the great lessons from this entire affair is that there were two standards of justice no in the united states and they are both being applied by the fbi and the doj. if you are a democrat you get a pass. if you are a republican you don t. sean: do we have to accept that? i never thought i would hear myself say those words but i have never been more disgusted with my alma mater at the department of justice under rod rosenstein and the fbi under chris wray, two incompetent empty suits who care about one thing, their own future, their next job and what they have done to put this country through. brad rosenstein has put this country through over the last 18 months, may he rot in for it.
concession to this team of prosecutors that robert mueller has put together looking at what judge ellis said about what they re really doing in the manafort case. i don t trust them. there s no question that the mueller investigation is illegitimate in the sense that rod rosenstein should have never appointed mueller, who had a conflict of interest. he was interviewed for the fbi director and the next day he was appointed special counsel. brad rosenstein is either a witness or a coconspirator in the case if there is an obstruction because of the firing of james comey. rosenstein should have never made the appointment. he shouldn t be involved. he approved one of the fisa warrants and more to come on that in the next few weeks, by the way, but here s the point. if the president should not be interviewed by these people, his attorneys should obviously, and i know they will do everything they can to advise him not to do an interview. this is an illegitimate investigation. it s a perjury
this morning, they said the deputy attorney general brad rosenstein, fbi director christopher wray, and the nation s intelligence chief the director of national intelligence look forward to briefing congressional leadership scheduled for this thursday which is two days after the congressional deadline. bill: thank you, we are leading in washington. sandra: former special counsel kenneth starr has got some advice for the president s attorneys. i think they d better be cautious and i think they are cautious. first we have to remember this is the president of the united states and this has been authorized law enforcement investigation. so that makes a situation uniqu unique. they do next, judge andrew napolitano analyzes what can starr thinks about the president sitting down for an interview with robert mueller. bill: if you are online over the weekend, he probably saw this photo from the g7 meeting, it went viral quickly. how do you read the body language there?
