Top Justice Department official Brand quit partly over fear she might be asked to oversee Russia probe

'All of this is false and frankly ridiculous,” said Justice Department spokeswoman Sarah Flores. '

'Brand grew frustrated by vacancies at the department and feared she would be asked to oversee the Russia investigation, the sources said. '

'In announcing her departure, Attorney General Jeff Sessions described Brand as "a lawyer’s lawyer," noting that she graduated from Harvard Law School and clerked at the Supreme Court. '

'"It was such a good job that she couldn’t turn it down," said Jamie Gorelick, a former Deputy Attorney General under the Clinton administration. ', "While Brand has largely stayed out of the spotlight, public criticism of Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein by President Donald Trump worried Brand that Rosenstein's job could be in danger."
