Scoop: Rod Rosenstein is resigning
Axios ^

Posted on 09/24/2018 7:42:59 AM PDT by TigerClaws

Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein has verbally resigned to Chief of Staff John Kelly in anticipation of being fired by President Trump, according to a source with direct knowledge.

Per a second source with direct knowledge: “He’s expecting to be fired,” so plans to step down. Background: Rosenstein talked last year invoking the 25th Amendment and wearing a wire during Trump meetings, the N.Y. Times' Adam Goldman and Michael S. Schmidt reported last week. He denied both allegations.

Q said that if Mueller is dirty, then so is RR, and vice versa. But I do know that Q has said that the declassification of the FISA warrant would happen and RR would be forced to resign. The real question is: How much of the Kavanaugh accuser coverage will be lost to this? Maybe 90% with a closing reminder before the credits roll? They’ll try to say he was forced to resign, but that doesn’t make sense if he was going to be fired, which is what they wanted. Spin cycle.

will do something soon before an honest man can be put in charge

If RR quits than an honest man is automatically in charge - next in the line of succession.

He must be prosecuted, and his pension stripped.

RR isn’t worried about the FISA stuff. He’s worried about McCabe leaking more stuff from there staff meetings as an October Surprise.

No way they take his federal pension. The only way you lose your pension is to be convicted of treason. Tough to do.

With any luck, either Sessions will fire him or Gen Kelly will have a good talk with him and piss him off(or scare him) enough so that he resigns

I really bothers me that all these Deep State Traitors will be able to collect huge pensions.
