Nice. The link brought a twitter feed that was informative.
I didn’t happen to know about the tradition of the Cabinet Chair presentation.
Had to wonder about Rosenstein’s place in that standing O given to Attorney General Barr and for Sessions.
At the time, I thought it was unforgivable how Sessions was sent into those early congressional hearings to be seen looking alternately quizzical, or gob smacked and totally ill prepared for important questions. I attributed that disaster to Rosenstein setting him up, keeping him so out of the loop that it hurt Sessions in those hearings and was certain to be a personal and professional embarrassment, as well as wrenching for those of us watching.
Maybe Rosenstein has been force-turned, by now? I dunno.
