Tuesday Afternoon Massacre

For those unfamiliar with the reference, the "Saturday Night Massacre" was when two of Richard Nixon's attorneys-general resigned rather than carry out his inappropriate orders to fire special prosecutor Archibald Cox.

Today in DC, US Attorneys are apparently withdrawing and resigning over Trump's twitter-led interference in making a sentencing recommendation for convicted felon Roger Stone.

Quote:

Earlier today, top Mueller prosecutor Aaron Zelinsky resigned from his position as AUSA in the DC office, but still works in MD... for now.

Jonathan Kravis became the second -- in a statement he said he "has resigned as an Assistant United States Attorney and therefore no longer represents the government in this case."

A third AUSA, Adam Jed, another Mueller veteran, just withdrew.

And a new DOJ attorney, John Crabb Jr., has entered his appearance.
