In another Justice Department shakeup, Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein is set to tender his resignation within the next 48 hours according to a One America News report.

“BREAKING: Sources tell me Deputy AG Rod Rosenstein will be offering his resignation within the next 48 hours. ,” said One America News’ White House Correspondent Emerald Robinson on Twitter.

Rosenstein was relieved of his duties overseeing Special Counsel Robert S. Mueller’s Russian “collusion” probe this afternoon after Attorney Jefferson B. Sessions resigned.

President Trump just announced that Matthew G. Whitaker, Sessions’ Chief of Staff, has became acting Attorney General after Sessions’ resignation.
