Therefore Solicitor General Noel Francisco would replace Rosenstein."

Okay, where'e this knucklhead come from? First time I've heard his name in this.

Also, if Rosensteisn merely recuses himself, then the number three at DOJ takes over his authority in the recused matters. If he is "forcibly terminated" then his position must be filled, but I assume then the "acting" appointment or full appointment comes into play. Either way, number three at DOJ is key.

Is this Callahan now the number three?

I’m not sure where the word recusal originated from for this meeting. I think the White House set the parameters for it (who should attend), but I could be mistaken. But after the meeting, it will be interesting to see what happens with Rosenstein... to see if the word “recusal” comes up for anything else, and to see what the DOJ does when the IG report goes public. Or starts to leak. Supposedly, it isn’t good for the FBI; The lead swamp monster in need of a complete drain.

Rosenstein terminated 24 May.

Current #3 is Pannuncio but he replaced Brand so his 210 day exemption is over. Not eligible for Rosenstein Place.

Rosentstein/Pannuncio out

The solicitor General Francisco (who Trump picked) in @ #2

Sessions and Trump pick #3

It would appear Big Ed has our CINC’s confidence. I *have* heard this Francisco cat’s name around. [Ed] is puzzling tho.
