Playbook makes a good observation about the House Freedom Caucus effort to impeach Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein:

“The HFC always does something like this right before the August recess. They tried to boot John Boehner, they tried to push out the IRS commissioner, they tried to force a repeal of Obamacare and this year, they are trying to push out the deputy attorney general. They say they are responding to legitimate issues. Their detractors say they’re trying to raise money and split Republicans.”

4. Hey, don't let the cat out of the bag

This stunt could dominate several news cycles before it totally fizzles out as the grandstand play everyone can see it for. Meadows and Jordan are entitled to fawning coverage of their bold pander to their nitwit base.
