Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, who has weathered some pretty rocky times at the Justice Department, is expected to step down in mid-March, CNN reports, citing a Justice Department official.
The official disputed any suggestion that the timing has something to do with the latest revelations from former acting FBI Director Andrew McCabe, who claims that Rosenstein volunteered to wear a wire when meeting with President Trump.
CNN has reported that Attorney General Bill Barr has selected Jeffrey Rosen to replace Rosenstein.
