Expose the chaos consuming the administration and discuss Recruiting Cabinet Members to invoke the 25th Amendment so they would remove president trump, your dual elected president from office for, quote, being unfit. This all took place during rosensteins second week on the job after he fired comey based on Rod Rosensteins recommendation. He didnt even have to like james comeys shoes and he could have fired him. Rosenstein thought he might be able to persuade kelly and the white house Chief Of Staff to invoke the 25th Amendment. Rod rosenstein wanted to wear a wire and secretly record a sitting president of the United States in both the 25th Amendment, a silent coup against his boss by him, mccabe, others,
all against a dual elected president. We are experiencing tonight a massive constitutional crisis and, frankly, this is designed to set up the president. Ill explain what this is about in a minute. Tonight, Rod Rosenstein, he is publicly denying this report, calling the story inaccur
The idea of possibliy resigning. Whats unclear is how serious that was. Whether he said Something Like i am willing to resign if the president wants me to or whether he said i intend to resign and im going to do it on monday. We dont know the exact nature of those conversations. Eli, i want to hear about your reporting. I want to show our viewers what phil rucker is talking about. Lets watch. I have a message for the president tonight. Under zero circumstances should the president fire anybody. If you are laying a trap for donald trump, this might be exactly how youd do it. Okay, professor, what will President Trump do now . Well, if hes smart, hell take advantage of this and not fire either any of these people, not mueller, not rosenstein, and not sessions. So this is important point because i think a lot of people are really scared after the
rosensteins people to come out and say, he expects to be fired. His people were putting that out to what end, we dont know at this point but cer
president trump s allies urging him not to fire deputy attorney general rod rosenstein after the report came out that rosenstein floated the idea of recruiting cabinet members to remove him from office. under zero circumstances should the president fire anybody. he should not fire rosenstein unless you believe rosenstein is lying. he said he did not do the things alleged. rod deserves the right to be heard and i am sure at some point the president will bring rod in and say if you think i am incompetent, and if you feel the need to wear a wire when you are talking to me, then why are you serving in my administration? our national security analyst, general michael hayden. always good to have you with us. your take, first of all, on this report in the new york times ? there s something in there for everyone, isn t there? if you are a supporter of the
the white house, that this was a last straw for him. whether the original report was, in all respects accurate or didn t take account of the way there might have been diverging catches at the meetings you re talking about where rod rosenstein made these comments about the 25th amendment or about wearing a wire, i think there are many people on both sides of that argument. so i think that is a live debate. but i do think it was a close call today. which goes to why there was so much rumbling. of course, when you look at attacks on the doj, you expect president trump s allies to echo him and what we got was the opposite. take a look. i have a message for the president tonight under zero circumstances should the president fire anybody. the president needs to know it is all a setup. the president might ask himself, why do andy mccabe and the new york times want me to fire rod rosenstein?
district of new york and eastern virginia and everywhere else. fear will be the predominant feel i feeling. the voices in the president s ear is the host, sean hannity. what he delivered directly to the president the other night. listen to this. i have a message for the president tonight. under zero circumstances should the president fire anybody. these actors tonight. i have multiple sources confirming this and more information coming. they are hoping and praying that the president does just that. they are hoping he gets mad and he gets sick and tired of it and they can turn this politically into their equivalent of a friday night massacre. the president needs to know it s a set up. he said it s a set up. what s your take? people think it s a set up,
