Jeff Rosen may be the right man for the times. We can only hope. Today President Trump announced that Attorney General Bill Barr would be resigning before Christmas and Deputy Attorney General Jeff Rosen would be taking over:

According to Ron at CodeMonkeyZ on Twitter, Deputy Attorney General Jeff Rosen who is taking over for AG Barr has written about foreign intervention on US elections:
(see insert)
In his recent essay from late August of this year, Rosen shares the following:
"But interference with infrastructure is not our only concern. We are also concerned about another threat, known as malign foreign influence. The key word is “influence.” Much of the time that is disguised propaganda. Other times, it is using pressure tactics on influential people. It can also take the form of hacking and disclosing private emails or phone messages. It comes in many different forms, all designed to influence how Americans think about issues and cast their votes. There are good lists of these on the FBI and ODNI websites…"
…"we are concerned when those preferences manifest themselves through malign foreign influence activities that are coercive, covert, or corrupt, whether the aim is specifically to influence our elections, or to influence policymaking and public discourse more broadly. Rosen first discusses coercive activities and then discusses covert activities by foreign agents where he gives this example:"
Donald Trump just retweeted Code Monkey.
Esper fired, replaced by Chris Miller (special ops). Kash Patel, who's good at following the money, replaced Miller. And now Barr is gone, replaced by Jeff Rosen, experienced in foreign interference in elections.
This Code Monkey?
Bttt
He is 0 for 3. Not a very good record for sure. Trump and Republicans heaped praise on Barr by the dump trunk load when he was being considered as I recall. To me you gotta get out of the political spectrum with anyone you consider for the AG job. We need a professional LEO based person, like a prosecutor or someone in the LEO field but not in the political field at all. Politics ruins everyone it touches.
ROTFLMAO funny.
“.... Jeff Rosen wrote an essay...”
.... you don’t say?
