President Trump is withdrawing his nomination for former U.S. attorney for D.C. Jessie Liu to serve as the Treasury Department's undersecretary for terrorism and financial crimes, a top position overseeing economic sanctions, according to two sources with direct knowledge.

The big picture: Liu was confirmed in September 2017 to lead the largest U.S. attorney's office in the country, overseeing a number of politically charged prosecutions that included the case against Trump associates Roger Stone, Michael Flynn, Paul Manafort and other spinoffs from the Mueller investigation.

"Was it Lieu?"

Since we don't know exactly when they came up with the 9 year sentencing recommendation, and since Jessie Liu worked as United States Attorney for the District of Columbia from September 24, 2017 – January 31, 2020, it's possible she was involved. I just checked, and it is the the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Columbia that is handling the case against Roger Stone.
