EXCLUSIVE: Rosenstein discussed invoking the 25th Amendment to oust Trump in the days after Comey was fired in May 2017. Rosenstein also discussed wearing a wire to secretly record his conversations with Trump. nytimes.com/2018/09/21/us/… w/@adamgoldmanNYT
UPDATE: We’ve learned that on a second occasion, Rosenstein discussed wearing a wire. This was in addition to the earlier instance of him raising the idea of either him or FBI officials wearing recording devices for when they see Trump nyti.ms/2xxNdwl w/@adamgoldmanNYT
ALSO: Lisa Page’s memo makes no mention of the 25th amendment because it documents a different meeting (that same day) than the one McCabe was writing about. nyti.ms/2xxNdwl w/@adamgoldmanNYT

#Rosenstein’s remarks (about exercising the Fifth Amendment and wiring Trump) were clearly facetious. But it just occurred to me that this isn’t the point. 1/5
All the saboteurs on the Right might need to get Trump to stop #Rosenstein & the #Mueller investigation is the disclosure that there was a discussion that showed agency concern about Trump AT ALL. 2/5
It was reported early last month that Trump and Rosenstein had a “great relationship.”

It is hard to see how that kind of relationship can survive this NYT story, 3/5 tinyurl.com/yaaasm8j

This is just fucking delicious.
Looks like we weren't the only ones talking about the 25th Amendment!
