Laura Ingraham Calls for Rod Rosenstein’s Firing Over NYT Report: ‘He Needs To Go. Today’
According to Fox News’ Laura Ingraham, there’s only one way for President Donald Trump to move forward from the new report out on Rod Rosenstein: immediate termination for the deputy attorney general.
Rod Rosenstein must be fired today. @realDonaldTrump

As you can see, Ingraham has clearly taken notice of the report from New York Times that just reignited the news cycle for the day. The report indicates that Rosenstein not only spoke of secretly recording Trump after the firing of James Comey, he also floated the idea of having the cabinet invoke the 25th Amendment to have the president removed from office.
Rosenstein has issued a denial of the Times‘ report, but its quite clear Ingraham doesn’t believe him.
In terms of the reaction from the rest of Trump-world: its a mix of disbelief for the the Times, and echoes of Ingraham’s call to have Rosenstein fired.

Backing up the fact this story is fiction, the story itself says there is no indication Rosenstein ever actually followed through on this.
It's just NYTimes unnamed source BS. https://t.co/dUvWINcpEa

This is disturbing and confirms how the Justice Department thinks it is a law unto itself. Shut Mueller special counsel down. https://t.co/XRbct60IOG

The suggestion that Jeff Sessions, no matter how frayed his relationship with President Trump, would help invoke the 25th amendment and that Rosenstein actually thought this was possible is totally laughable pic.twitter.com/arbpwORVLh
