The latest excuse for progressive hyperventilation is the news leaked last night to ABC News and confirmed by several other media outlets: Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein will be leaving the Department of Justice in a matter of weeks. Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein is expected to leave his role in the coming weeks, multiple sources familiar with his plans told ABC News.
Rosenstein has communicated to President Donald Trump and White House officials his plan to depart the administration around the time William Barr, Trump's nominee for attorney general, would take office following a Senate confirmation.
President Trump's criticisms of Rosenstein automatically made him a hero to the left.

Rosenstein also signed an illegal and fraudulent FISA application and claimed that he had never read it.
Good
he did his job, and considers himself a patriot in the war on America and all we stand for.
Day late and dollar short....however, the swamp will be less swampy.
Which network is going to hire him as an “analyst”?
I guess RosenRat has finished destroying all evidence that incriminates the Deep State hacks.
“Rosenstein is expected to leave his role in the coming weeks, multiple sources familiar with his plans told ABC News.”
1: what the hell does leaving his role mean?
2: “multiple sources”. Yeah that BS again
3: He should be facing charges for organizating illegal surveillance on a Presidential campaign.
This bastard should be on trial for malfeasance. Mirengoff, my least favorite Powerline author, lays it out here rather nicely: https://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2019/01/report-rosenstein-will-be-out-soon.php
“Rosenstein has communicated to President Donald Trump and White House officials his plan to depart the administration around the time William Barr, Trump’s nominee for attorney general, “
So is this a handoff to Barr? I don’t really like the idea of Barr as AG. Trump had better start picking people who will help, not hinder his policies. With Tillerson, Kelly, Mattis and Sessions, he’s managed to pick a bucket of cocks!
Get the hell out of our government, you Deep State weasel
“He should be facing charges for organizating illegal surveillance on a Presidential campaign.”
And multiple coup attempts. I call that high treason.
This guy just gets to resign? The rule of law is dead.
He’ll likely join a big law firm, perhaps Vinson & Ellis, for multiples of his $200k government salary.
Leak?
I thought he was only around til mid 2019?
He is retiring. Why does it takes weeks and then no specific date is given? sounds like total BS.
New Attorney General always picks his right arm man.
This is such nonsense.
He was known to be leaving, but they try to blow it out to mean something. I used a tooth-pick last week. (probably more climactic)
The original story was that RR would stay on until William Barr was confirmed. That’s unknown right now. It’s pretty normal for a DAG to leave when a new AG takes over. If there’s a story here, that’s not it.
In a different era, he would get the chair or hung.
It’s slim pickings in the swamp.
I share your concern that it is just a handoff to a Bush League Republican.
“I share your concern that it is just a handoff to a Bush League Republican.”
I just wrote to Trump about Barr. And pointed out that he’s come up craps way too many of his key appointments. ( i.e. Sessions, Tillerson, Rancid Penis, Kelly, Mattis and Wray), and that he’d better consider Barr very carefully lest he go from the frying pan into the fire with him. He’d be way better served by s group of smart nobodies who don’t have him as their primary target.
he was supposed to be gone middle of september, per the plan....
