Discovery: House Freedom Caucus Chairman Mark Meadows said Tuesday he wants Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein to testify before Congress under oath regarding details contained in a New York Times report last week.
The Times report claims that Rosenstein once offered to secretly record POTUS Trump inside the Oval Office while wanting to "Recruit" top Trump administration officials to get rid of the president via the 25th Amendment - a majority of Cabinet members voting for removal.
The Times says that Rosenstein shared those plans with "Other Justice Department and FBI officials," who of course gave the paper their details anonymously.
During meetings in July 2017, Rosenstein allegedly made the explosive suggestion to other Justice Department and FBI officials that someone secretly record POTUS. The scheme never materialized, but according to the Times Rosenstein told then-Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe he thought it would be possible to flip Attorney General Jeff Sessions and then-Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly, now chief of staff, to invoke the 25th Amendment.
Now Meadows, R-N.C., wants Rosenstein to appear before a congressional committee to answer questions about the allegations.
"Rod Rosenstein must come before Congress this week, under oath, and tell the truth about his alleged statements."
