bottom of why and that is still a question they are trying to figure out, why did the president actually fire jim comey. >> and that is at the center, matt apuzzo, of the investigation to whether or not the president obstructed justice. i want to read a couple more pulls from your piece. i'd love to read the whole thing but, you know, we've only got an hour. so, you write -- >> don't do it to your readers. >> subscribe to the times, and everyone should read it themselves. so, mccabe's memo, one of several that he wrote, highlights a conflicting roles that rosenstein plays in the case. he supervises the special counsel investigation and is told colleagues that protecting it is among his highest priorities. many current and former law enforcement officials are suspicious of some of his other actions, including allowing some of mr. trump's congressional allies to view crucial documents from the investigation. i don't think we talk enougher -- because everything has become so relative about how rosenstein is almost a bad/good guy or good bad guy, depending how you look at it.
