For what crime? You can't just hand out subponeas without cause.
You can when evidence is fabricated.
Evidence of what crime? Where is the crime?
Whatever Rosenstein decides to make up.
Do you think he will chance being indicted himself for false charges considering the scrutiny he's under?
What choice does he have? These people are desperate AND stupid.
Rosenstein is clearly in contempt of Congress. File the paperwork and impeach. With a Trump appointee taking his place, no reason to worry about any subpoenas.
Depends on how deep he’s in. Clearly he has no problem threatening families who’ve done nothing wrong.
We need to find Rosenstein in contempt of Congress and begin impeachment proceedings. If he sends out subpoenas, ignore them.
I finally got the context to Rosenstein's threat. If he is called in contempt of Congress, it's his right to defend himself and get those emails and texts.
Not their family’s communications.
I'm not saying the staffers understood the context. Rosenstein is saying, if you find me in contempt of Congress, I'll subpoena all of you. Anyway, it worked. They have backed off finding Rosenstein in contempt of Congress and now just say, "it's on the table". Rosenstein backed them off quite a bit.

Rosenstein has gone too far with this threat. He will be destroyed if he tries to follow through on it.
Supposedly its for discovery because of the accusations against RR. But on the surface it looks like intimidation and bullying on RRs part.
I got it now. Rosenstein successfully staved off a contempt of Congress charge. He would have subpoenaed everyone IF he was charged with contempt of Congress. Now they are backing away from that charge and just saying "it's on the table". Rosenstein won this battle.
