“Listened to Rosenstein interview b/c it was fed thru subscription to Preet’s podcast. Preet would never allowed Rosenstein such a “walk in the park” interview of lobbed softballs. Two examples: 1) Rosenstein’s knowingly crafted his memo against Comey at t-rump’s request to allow t-rump to pretextually fire Comey based on the content of the memo knowing that the real purpose was to facilitate firing Comey to derail Comey’s Russia investigation. The interviewers gave Rosenstein a huge pass by allowing him to duck by saying the “content of the memo was accurate”. The scandal is not the accuracy of the memo but it’s manufacture to willfully cooperate in creating a pretext for t-rump to fire Comey to attempt to derail the Russia investigation. In so doing, Rosenstein compromised himself and the institution of the DOJ; 2) When asked about whether he offered to “wear a wire” in a mtg w/ t-rump, Rosenstein was allowed by the interviewer merely to duck by “denying the accuracy of the quote”. Where was the followup correcting the quote? Painful interview. Preet should not have promoted it.”
