QuoteHouse Freedom Caucus leaders Reps. Mark Meadows and Jim Jordan on Monday sent a letter to DOJ Inspector General Michael Horowitz to investigate whether Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein threatened congressional staffers with "subpoena" earlier this year.

"This notion Mr. Rosenstein threatened to use his official investigative powers as Deputy Attorney General to retaliate against rank-and-file staff members for sending written oversight requests raises concerns he has abused his authority in the context of this investigation," wrote the two Republican lawmakers in the letter obtained by Fox News.

The letter comes after Rosenstein apparently threatened to "subpoena" emails, phone records and other documents from lawmakers and staff on a Republican-led House committee during a "downright chilling" meeting earlier this year, according to emails reviewed by Fox News.

This is very scary, yet very good that RR got caught. And trump is supposed to believe this guy about russian meddling?!?! When he threatens our own congress just for investigating him. This guy is no better than Struck/Stroke/Smirk.

This is only the 20th thing that RR has on his rap-sheet.  I'd like to see the first 19 prosecuted before this one.  Same basic deal for Mueller, Comey, McCabe, Strzok, Ohr, Brennan, Clapper, Lynch, Holder, Jarrett, Huma, Hilldog.

Ditto the Awans, sex payoffs, alzheimer's list, Weiner's laptop, and the already proven perjuries and TS leaks.

We don't need "new" stuff.  We've already got 10 years worth of slam-dunk cases to be arrested and indicted and prosecuted.
