Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein is expected to leave his role at the Justice Department by mid-March, a senior DOJ official told Fox News on Monday.

An announcement of who has been selected to replace Rosenstein could come as early as this week. A Trump administration official added that Attorney General William Barr has picked Jeffrey Rosen to serve as his deputy attorney general.

Fox News reported in January that Rosenstein was expected to step down in the coming weeks to ensure a smooth transition for Barr, who was sworn in on Thursday.

Last week Joe DiGenova was a guest on a local Boston talk host's show and said that a number of the key players,including Rosenstein,are gonna be wearing orange jump suits before long.

[rktman]

He’ll get some sort of immunity. POS!

[jjotto]

Senior parther at Kirkland & Ellis, where the President gets most picks.

[MtnClimber]

Hopefully he will be in a jail cell charged with treason before then.

[odawg]

He should not be allowed to step down.

He should be locked out of his office tonight.

Jeffrey Rosen is Absolute Swamp !

He's terrible. Not a good sign.

A bit about his likely successor, Jeffry A. Rosen, FTA:

"An official announcement of who has been selected to replace Rosenstein could come as early as this week. A Trump administration official added that Attorney General William Barr has picked Jeffrey Rosen, who currently serves as Deputy Secretary of the U.S. Department of Transportation, to take over for Rosenstein."

In evaluating this man be very careful not just to Google "Jeffery Rosen" who is also a DC lawyer and a far leftist. I initially made that mistake and was horrified.

[FreeReign]

Hopefully, this is a mistake and the Jeffrey Rosen is this Jeffrey Rosen.

Hopefully.

...who currently serves as Deputy Secretary of the U.S. Department of Transportation,

Thanks.

[afterhoursarmory]

“Step down” so long as he plays nice???

[jjotto]

Yes, it is the Jeffrey Rosen from the Transportation Dept that will become DAG and run the DOJ day to day.

Jeffrey Rosen to take RR’s place as per Fox

[thinden]

Perp walked out of the building at 9:00 am today. His computers and files seized.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Are you referring to RR being perp walked out?

[Fledermaus]

Wants to keep his pension unlike McCabe who lost his.

[libstripper]

You got the right man. Thank God it’s not the far leftist “Jeffrey Rosen.” I made the same mistake when I first Google him.

[Stentor]

I initially made that mistake and was horrified.

You were not alone. My hair was on fire.

[shanover]

Why do we have a never ending succession of swamp creatures? Who is consulting the President?

[libstripper]

It’s going to be fun to read tomorrow’s news reports to see how many make the same initial mistake we did. I certainly hope Rush doesn’t and that he points out the great difference between Jeffrey A. Rosen and Jeffrey Rosen.
