So, the committee in Congress that provides oversight for the Dept. of Justice (DOJ), can NOT get Rod Rosenstein to turn over two or three really crucial documents. He just won't do it. Now we are hearing stories on the news (true or not) that Rod Rosenstein is threatening the Congressional Committees' staff members, saying he will subpoena THEIR emails and records.

Sorry this is so long...(leading up to it). So my question is really this. Who or what is in charge when an employee of the DOJ violates the US constitution and refuses to obey the directions given to him by the Congress, which is in charge of his oversight? Can they call in the army? Can Pence go over to the DOJ and slap Rosenstein across the face with a glove? Can Jeff Sesions go up behind Rosenstein and kick his lunch up the other end?

I mean, if they put me in charge, I would light his pants on fire....but I don't think Congress can do that....even though it might work.

The Congressional Committee involved has talked about impeaching Rod Rosenstein, but apparently they just can't bring themselves to really do it because they are wussies. They have been talking about it for over a month, but Rod scares them.

In the meantime, if I have to hear about snot- nosed Rosenstein defying the legitimate authority of the Congress of the United States one more time, I am going to consider a complete and total news embargo. OR.............I could send Rosenstein one of those "special" chocolate cream pies....LOLOL!!!

DOJ technically reports to the president but they do have to answer to congress as the constitution gives congress the power/authority to oversee DOJ, since they created the DOJ. The president is wise to stay out of this for obvious reasons but not to worry the complete truth will emerge and the guilty will be held accountable. I predict before all this is over little rod will be out of a job, if not indicted for his part in obtaining a FISA warrant under false pretenses. Remember, the courts can force the release of the papers unredacted and then his little effort to protect others will be exposed.
