Top Justice Department Official Who Helped Oversee Clinton Email Probe RESIGNS

[Gateway Pundit] A Justice Department official who helped oversee the controversial probes of Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server and Russian interference in the 2016 election stepped down this week.

David Laufman, an experienced federal prosecutor who in 2014 became chief of the National Security Division’s Counterintelligence and Export Control Section, said farewell to colleagues Wednesday. He cited personal reasons.

"It’s tough to leave a mission this compelling and an institution as exceptional as the Department of Justice," said Laufman, 59. "But I know that prosecutors and agents will continue to bring to their work precisely what the American people should expect: a fierce and relentless commitment to protect the national security of the United States."

Critics noted that Laufman had donated to Barack Obama’s presidential campaigns, referring to him as a "holdover."

#12 Email probe? Oh, do you mean the whitewash where there was a wholesale destruction of incriminating documents, the mishandling of classified info, obstruction of justice, sedition, treason, espionage and perjured testimony?

#13 Rachel Brand is also leaving. Most likely, Robert Higdon will replace her. If Rosenstein resigns, is demoted, fired or indicted, Higdon would be in charge of the Mueller special counsel.
