Rosenstein to Reportedly Meet With House GOP on Wiring Claim

Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein may have another important meeting on his calendar.

According to multiple media outlets , he's agreed to  speak to Congressional Republicans  behind closed doors about allegations stemming from a recent New York Times report.  The report claims Rosenstein considered secretly recording President Donald Trump and discussed invoking the 25th amendment to have Trump removed from office, which Rosenstein has denied.  CNN reports that House Freedom Caucus members  met with House Speaker Paul Ryan  earlier this week in order to secure the private hearing.  Rep.

Mark Meadows, an outspoken critic of Rosenstein,  said on Twitter Friday  that they'll subpoena Rosenstein if he doesn't show up, although it looks like that won't be necessary.  A meeting between the deputy attorney general and President Trump on the same topic was  pushed back until next week .  Additional reporting from  Newsy affiliate CNN .
