Rosenstein has faced a bunch of criticism, but for the most part he’s been a straight shooter and apparently not everybody in the Deep state is as evil as they appear at first sight.
Wait and see: Rod is going to be a witness for Barr et al. That is why Pres Trump did not fire him

Rosenstein is a big government advocate, and not to be trusted, not any more than Comey or Wray or anybody else who reaches that level of power. It is nigh impossible for an honorable and honest person to be allowed that level.
