Since Trump has, wisely in terms of optics, not cooperated with the narrative and told Rosenstein 'you're fired', they are trying a full court press here - Rosenstein resigns claiming he was 'probably going to be fired' - blatantly political move intended to reinforce the narrative.

Coupled with what will now be an endless string of accusers against Kavanaugh we are witnessing a defacto coup - they lost the election and simply will not yield power to the duly elected government.

Trump and Grassley have a short window to head this off at the pass (accept the resignation graciously and vote to confirm Kavanaugh TODAY) or we are facing a true Constitutional crisis, in that the Constitution will no longer matter and the Left will simply govern whether or not they are actually in power.

Amazing diversity of what is happening at the moment when I check Google news headlines.

He’s offering his resignation.
He expects to be fired.
Trump to meet Rosenstein regarding conflicting reports.

Ya'll know Trump is not in D.C. right now.

Nothing happening till Thursday. WH Press Secretary reports:

“At the request of Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, he and President Trump had an extended conversation to discuss the recent news stories. Because the President is at the United Nations General Assembly and has a full schedule with leaders from around the world, they will meet on Thursday when the President returns to Washington, D.C."

Expect Thursday to be  busy news day.
