Former CIA Director-turned-Twitter-troll John Brennan sounded the alarm Monday evening urging Rosenstein to stand his ground and wait to be fired.
Brennan did not call out Rosenstein by name, however his urgent message comes on the heels of multiple reports claiming DAG Rosenstein has given a verbal resignation to Chief of Staff John Kelly following an explosive NYT report he wanted to wear a wire and oust Trump from office.
According to White House sources, Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein is expecting to be fired so to get ahead of the ax, Rosenstein plans on officially resigning, reported Axios.
John Brennan hit the panic button Monday and encouraged officials to “stand their ground” and “wait to be fired.”
JOHN BRENNAN: Any attempt by the White House to subvert or manipulate law enforcement should be resisted. Rather than resigning, officials should stand their ground & wait to be fired. Resisting abuse of presidential authority is not a policy difference; it’s about adhering to the rule of law.

Sean Hannity and other prominent conservative voices warned President Trump against firing Rosenstein after the New York Times rolled out their report on his secret plans to wear a wire and oust Trump from office.
‘It’s a set up,’ said Hannity. The Deep State is trying to bait President Trump into firing DAG Rosenstein to create a Nixon-like ‘Saturday night massacre’ where the DAG, AG and special prosecutor Archibald Cox were fired during the Watergate investigation.
John Brennan is panicking because Rosenstein’s departure puts Mueller’s unconstitutional witch hunt in jeopardy.
Rosenstein appointed Mueller in May of 2017 and has been protecting the illegal witch hunt ever since–if Solicitor General Noel Francisco (one of the good guys) takes over the Special Counsel, the Deep State could quickly unravel.
John Brennan was one of the main players in promoting and leaking stories on Hillary’s phony Russia dossier–he’s desperate to keep Mueller and Rosenstein in their positions.
