Andrew McCarthy: If There Were Any Question That Rod Rosenstein Had a Conflict of Interest in the Russia Probe, His Threat to Subpeona Congressmen to Get Them to Stop Doing Oversight On Him Should Dispel Any Remaining DoubtsYou don't allow people with conflicts of interest to act as judges or prosecutors in a case. Their emotional/personal attachments in the matter may cloud their judgment and cause them to behave unprofessionally, unethically, and even illegally. Threatening retaliation subpoenas against Congressmen doing lawful, constitutional oversight, because you want to protect your friends or yourself, is the kind of thing that people with conflicts of interest do. [R]osenstein has clung to his role as Mueller's ostensible supervisor in the investigation notwithstanding that he is a central witness in Comey's dismissal. He authored a memorandum that, ironically, posits that a troubled official’s removal was necessary "to restore public confidence" in a vital institution. The Trump administration used Rosenstein’s memo to justify Comey’s firing even though there are salient questions about whether it states the true rationale for the firing -- precisely the questions Mueller is investigating. I'd say McCarthy is being charitable in suggesting that the subpeona threat merely gives rise to an appearance of impropriety. Though his article does then argue that Rosenstein's threat was outrageous. He asks some salient questions: On what basis is the Justice Department still withholding some documents and massively redacting others; and when will President Trump, instead of blowing off Twitter steam, finally order his subordinates to comply with lawful congressional demands for information? If there were credible allegations that a Republican administration had spied on a Democratic campaign, we would not be hearing precious concerns about the viability of the Justice Department and FBI as critical American institutions; in unison, the media and the political class would be demanding transparency. | Recent Comments
