Rep. Devin Nunes made similar threats in April, where he said Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein and FBI Director Christopher Wray could face impeachment charges if they keep this up.
A two-page memo was said to be the foundation for the investigation that's not being headed by Special Counsel Robert Mueller; the DOJ turned over the document a day after Nunes made the impeachment threat, on April 10.
"My frustrations about their inability to respond to simple requests could warrant further action," Meadows said, adding that many of his colleagues are nearing a breaking point with Rosenstein.
Rosenstein has been someone many have feared would be fired by President Trump.
Rosenstein himself is said to be ready to be given his pink slip if the time came.
Mueller reportedly first obtained the information that led to the raids, but had no use for it regarding the Russia probe, so he passed it along to other federal authorities; Rosenstein was said to personally sign off on the raids.
The threat of Rosenstein or Mueller being fired have gone down, even Trump said that the press keep writing that he's going to axe them for months now-and yet the two men remain at their posts.
