    In the wake of Trump’s tweet attacking him, AG Jeff Sessions had a nearly 2-hour dinner last night with Deputy AG Rod Rosenstein and Solicitor General Noel Francisco — the next 2 people in line to run DOJ should Sessions be fired or resign. https://www.buzzfeed.com/chrisgeidner/jeff-sessions-huddles-with-his-top-lawyers-in-the-wake-of …pic.twitter.com/HOR9dhII0N

        The tweet — calling Sessions’ decision to refer FISA abuse claims to the DOJ inspector general “DISGRACEFUL!” — was "multidimensionally reprehensible," a conservative lawyer who at one point had considered taking a job in the administration told me.https://www.buzzfeed.com/chrisgeidner/jeff-sessions-huddles-with-his-top-lawyers-in-the-wake-of?utm_term=.iwxrxvrMA …

        The conservative lawyer, who still has close ties to the administration, gave me a list of 6 reasons why Trump’s tweet about Sessions was “idiotic,” even beyond “its sheer baseness.” https://www.buzzfeed.com/chrisgeidner/jeff-sessions-huddles-with-his-top-lawyers-in-the-wake-of?utm_term=.iwxrxvrMA …pic.twitter.com/kT58k0klDe

        Are you stupid or complicit or both @chrisgeidner? You KNOW your tweet is dangerously misleading - if Sessions is fired, Trump would replace him w/ a non-recused traitor/stooge. Rosenstein would not get the job.

        The line of succession is a line of succession. The president can change that, yes, but that doesn’t alter what is currently in place. I’ve written plenty of stories about the FVRA and what Trump could do, so, no, I’m neither stupid nor “complicit.”

        The point of identifying them is because that is part of why the three of them having dinner in public together last night was notable. They are the three top Senate-confirmed people at the department.

        Didn't Rosenstein sign a request for the FISA spying? He's as creepy as Comey.

        If @jeffsessions were to be fired it would only support the Dems claims of a collusion/cover-up. And does Trump really want Rod Rosenstien in charge of the DOJ as well the only person that can ultimately fire Mueller. He has to tred lightly for quite some time.
