Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein is expected to leave his role in the coming weeks, multiple sources familiar with his plans told ABC News.
Rosenstein has communicated to President Donald Trump and White House officials his plan to depart the administration around the time William Barr, Trump's nominee for attorney general, would take office following a Senate confirmation.
Sources told ABC News Rosenstein wants to ensure a smooth transition to his successor and would accommodate the needs of Barr, should he be confirmed.
Rosenstein apparently had long been thinking he would serve about two years, and there was no indication that he was being forced out at this moment by the president.
Upon the termination of Attorney General Jeff Sessions, speculation mounted that Rosenstein would depart shortly thereafter, yet he's remained in his post as Matt Whitaker has served as acting Attorney General since late November.
Rosenstein oversaw special counsel Robert Mueller's probe for more than a year, after Sessions had recused from the matter over his role in Trump's presidential campaign.
Like other senior leaders within the Justice Department, Rosenstein became a frequent target of Trump's on Twitter, with the president recently re-posting an image of Rosenstein and others behind bars.
In May 2017, shortly after Trump fired James Comey as FBI Director, Rosenstein made the call to appoint Mueller to take over the FBI probe of Russia's meddling in the 2016 presidential election and any possible ties between Russian operatives and Trump associates.
Trump and his Republican allies have repeatedly blasted that decision. But tensions between Trump and Rosenstein came to a head in September, after reports surfaced saying that, during a meeting in the immediate aftermath of Comey's firing, Rosenstein raised the possibility of secretly recording the president at the White House.

When these guys leave government do they retain ss?
Pop goes the weasel!
Just in time to indict him?
Fingers crossed.
Why wouldn’t they retain Social Security? The gvt pension deduction on their paycheck would obviously stop.
Are you asking about security clearance???
I think he meant Secret Service.
"...do they retain SS..."
In May 2017, shortly after Trump fired James Comey as FBI Director........( as recommended in a written letter to PresidentTrump)
, Rosenstein made the call to appoint Mueller to take over the FBI probe of Russia’s meddling in the 2016 presidential election
( Thereby attempting to cover up the RICO conspiracy to deny PDJT his duly elected presidency, by Clapper, Comey, Brennan,and Obama) and any possible ties between Russian operatives and Trump associates ( It was all a created myth, Steele Report etc. and Rosenstein knew that but appointed the Democrat operative Mueller anyway in A CONTINUING EFFORT TO IMP[ACH OR CONTROL PRESIDENT TRUMP VIA EXTORTION)
President Trump is a hero, denying the left any ability to extort, blackmail or otherwise influence him.
GOD BLESS PRESIDENT TRUMP.
Rosenstein is dirty...to the nines.
Win win, win
I thought he was already gone.
The TRASH is very gradually being removed. A task made monumentally difficult by the despicable Sessions.
Yeah, Social Security, that’s it. That’s what I was asking about.
These guys don’t get Secret Service protection. The VP’s protection stops at the inauguration. Only Presidents get continued protection.

It's not for everyone
"The more you know..."
(excerpt)
President Trump told reporters outside the White House on Sunday that he’s "in no hurry" to replace his acting Cabinet secretaries with formal replacements, saying, "I have acting, and my actings are doing really great. ... I sort of like acting. It gives me more flexibility, do you understand that?"
Scaramucci model? Public opinion (optics) do not matter. Temps can be very dangerous to those who are targeted.
