More Resignations Likely at Justice Department

“Attorney General William Barr and his lieutenants have increasingly exerted authority in politically sensitive investigations at the Justice Department, fraying relationships with prosecutors at the powerful US attorney’s office in Washington, DC, and leading to an unprecedented walkout of the career attorneys handling the Roger Stone case,” CNN reports.

“People familiar with the situation at the DC US attorney’s office said other prosecutors have discussed resigning in the coming days following the Justice Department leadership’s decision to disavow and claw back a sentencing recommendation that prosecutors had made in the case of Stone, a longtime friend of President Trump.”
