I don't buy it. He has a history with the DS. I think he has simply tried to play both sides to carve out a life for himself - a weasel with no honor. I am fine if he copped a plea to provide optics for Barr and the handling of the Mueller report, but if he is a hero, there is no reason for him to be resigning.
Brian Cates on Twitter: "And I’m going to be proven right.
Rosenstein is the biggest hero in this unfolding drama we’ve been watching for the past two years inside the Department of Justice.
And you can quote me on that.

Comey is toast - no shit Sherlock, that is pretty obvious but Rosenstein a hero ? Both Rod and his wife, Lisa Barsoomian owe their careers as US Attorneys to Mueller, Obama, Bush and the Clintons. Impartial - eh no way. Rod should have recused himself from the Mueller investigation as per the ethics rules and regulations, he did not do so. Instead he instructed his wife's mentor, Robert Mueller to head up the investigation, gave him the broadest worded scope memos, word played with wearing wires to surveil the 45th duly elected President of The United States, rubber stamped crappy 4th time around FISA applications which were not worth the paper that they were written on. Him and the missus, total swampers. Rod may have decided to save himself and his wife at some point, we do not know if this is true but with Barr in the driving seat now, it is everyone of those cheating bastards for themselves as the tide slowly drains out of the swamp.
