BREAKING: Inside the beltway rumor: @TheJusticeDept Inspector General Horowitz was recommending to @jeffsessions & @POTUS @realDonaldTrump that Rod Rosenstein be fired over glaring conflicts of interest uncovered in IG Investigation RE: #MuellerProbe & #FISA/#FISC. RR resigned.
cont... Apparently the report in @nytimes about #Rosenstein wanting officials to wear a wire & record @potus @realDonaldTrump for a means to use #25thAmendment to remove #DJT WAS NOT a part of reason IG Horowitz recommended firing of RR. It was, however part of reason... cont...
@jeffsessions reached out to #SCOTUS members for guidance on his recusal and how or if it was possible to fire #Rosenstein without lifting that recusal. Legal gymnastics behind the scenes by #Sessions to find a way to take action against #RR happened BEFORE @nytimes article.

1. I've been lucky enough to know & occasionally work with Federal Agents on Investigative & Protective tasks; including members of the @FBI & @TheJusticeDept. The actions of #PeterStrzok & #LisaPage are well below the character of 99.9% of their colleagues. @FBI MOTTO DEEP DIVE:
2. The @FBI motto is traced to comments by Inspector W. H. Drane Lester. Inspector Lester was the editor of the @fbi employee magazine, "The Investigator", in the 1930's.
3. In the September 1935 Investigator Lane wrote:

'...But “F B I” is the best and one from which we might well choose our motto, for those initials also represent the three things for which the Bureau and its representatives always stand:
“Fidelity - Bravery - Integrity.”'
