Rosenstein Bolsters Team, Names Veteran Prosecutor Ed O’Callaghan as His Right Hand
Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein has tapped Edward O’Callaghan, a widely respected veteran prosecutor, as Principal Associate Deputy Attorney General, a post that is among the most important at the Department of Justice. The PADAG, as the position is known within DoJ, is charged with wide-ranging responsibilities including oversight of investigations and Department operations.
O’Callaghan is assuming a post previously held by FBI Director Christopher Wray and Supreme Court nominee Merrick Garland among others. The Russia investigation has made it even more crucial now.
Fear The Beard!
Big news, especially if O’Callaghan is a white hat, as I think we decided back when his name was first mentioned. If RR is appointing him, it means RR has given up the battle to destroy the President, and may be on the other side. We will see. RR may already be recused and/or out of the oversight of the Mueller witch hunt. If not, he will be soon. Bye, RR.
