That is supposed to be the only reason these people are released, resign, whatever.
It’s a change of administration .. that’s all.
Problem is both Trump and Sessions seemingly agreed to meet with Bharara in either NOv. or Dec. I have seen two different dates now to discuss him stayingon due to up coming cases he had.
Probably dealing with Cuomo and DeBlasio.If that was not in the mix Bharara could have been seen as an unruly child not wanting to do what he was told by his seniors.But its not technically the case.

Preet Bharara said Wednesday that he’ll stay on in his role as Manhattan U.S. Attorney at Donald Trump’s request.
Following a meeting with the President-elect inside Trump Tower, Bharara told reporters he had been summoned to discuss remaining in his position and had made up his mind “to stay on.”
“The President-elect asked, presumably because he’s a New Yorker and is aware of the great work that our office has done over the past seven years ... whether or not I’d be prepared to stay on” and “I agreed,” Bharara said.
The crimefighter said he had already notified Trump’s pick for U.S. Attorney General, Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.) of his choice.

Incoming Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) offered his vote for Bharara.
“President-elect Trump called me last week” about Bharara, Schumer said. “I told him I thought Preet was great, and I would be all for keeping him on the job.”

A source said Trump had also hit up Schumer for Bharara’s cell phone number.
“I am glad they met and am glad Preet is staying on. He’s been one of the best U.S Attorneys New York has ever seen,” Schumer said.
