The NYT<\/a>: \u201cMr. Rosenstein made the remarks about secretly recording Mr. Trump and about the 25th Amendment in meetings and conversations with other Justice Department and F.B.I. officials. Several people described the episodes, insisting on anonymity to discuss internal deliberations. The people were briefed either on the events themselves or on memos written by F.B.I. officials, including Andrew G. McCabe, then the acting bureau director, that documented Mr. Rosenstein\u2019s actions and comments.\u201d<\/p>\n Rosenstein denied the NYT report:\u00a0\u201cThe New York Times\u2019s story is inaccurate and factually incorrect. I will not further comment on a story based on anonymous sources who are obviously biased against the department and are advancing their own personal agenda. But let me be clear about this: Based on my personal dealings with the president, there is no basis to invoke the 25th Amendment.\u201d<\/p>\n UPDATE<\/strong>:<\/p>\n NBC News spoke to Justice Department officials who said that Rosenstein was joking<\/a>: \u201cDeputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein was joking when he discussed wearing a wire to secretly record President Donald Trump and does not believe Trump should be removed from office through the use of procedures outlined in the Constitution\u2019s 25th Amendment, according to Justice Department officials who requested anonymity to discuss the conversation.\u201d<\/p>\n The post Rod Rosenstein Discussed Secretly Recording Trump, Recruiting Cabinet Members to Invoke 25th Amendment: REPORT<\/a> appeared first on Towleroad Gay News<\/a>.<\/p>\n
