A couple of problems need fixing:
-- The article says in a couple of places that President Trump nominated Rosenstein before actually taking office. Either the date is wrong, or else a phrase such as "announced the nomination of" should be used.
-- The article describes Rosenstein's previous job in the present tense. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.174.237.202 ( talk) 00:41, 10 May 2017 (UTC)
What was wrong with that last edit? I for one strongly question Rosenstein's judgement after this debacle. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.37.180.170 ( talk) 01:29, 10 May 2017 (UTC)
“Trump announced his intention to nominate Rosenstein on January 31, 2017”. This seems to be a typo and should read “January 13”, as is stated further below in the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.72.142.216 ( talk) 08:57, 7 May 2018 (UTC)
A section regarding this needs creating. -- Wikipietime ( talk) 12:33, 10 May 2017 (UTCIt is inaccurate to say that RR recommended Comey's dismissal. https://www.justsecurity.org/40771/strange-perhaps-telling-omission-rosenstein-memo/
I think a sentence like this is worth adding, "Rosenstein's conclusions upon the appropriateness of Comey's actions was drafted before an internal review by the FBI Inspector General report on the same actions was completed." http://fortune.com/2017/01/13/james-comey-hillary-clinton-fbi/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by 45.27.54.161 ( talk) 17:14, 11 May 2017 (UTC)

It is inaccurate to say that RR "recommended Comey's dismissal." The memo itself did not state such a recommendation. https://www.justsecurity.org/40771/strange-perhaps-telling-omission-rosenstein-memo/ It would be more accurate to say that RR's memo "articulated Comey's shortcomings as FBI Director."
It is also inaccurate to say that Rothstein interviewed anyone for the memo. All the quotes were from previous op-eds or interviews. I will edit the article to reflect that fact. Just saw that the article was semi-locked. I do think that detail is important and should be clarified ASAP. 160.111.254.17 ( talk) 15:40, 11 May 2017 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 160.111.254.17 ( talk) 15:36, 11 May 2017 (UTC)
The sentence changes paragraph focus from Rosenstein to somebody called Davis. I think "Davis" should be replaced with "Rosenstein" — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.96.54.144 ( talk) 15:11, 10 May 2017 (UTC)
This is a DOJ photo of Brand's swearing in. The DOJ only identifies Sessions and Brand, but I'm 99% sure Rosenstein is in the middle. Can anybody verify 100%?

I acted in accordance with the suggestion which some other editor had inserted (to wit, <!-- Additional reliable sources confirming his party affiliation would be appropriate. -->) and Huffington Post is unreliable as a legtwing propaganda outlet. Nor am I crazy about NBC or WaPO, either. I will keep searching for a genuinely reliable source. Quis separabit? 20:43, 21 June 2018 (UTC)

Axios is reporting that Rosenstein will resign on 9/24/2018 from the 37th United States Deputy Attorney General position because he expects to be fired for suggesting secretly recording President Trump and invoking the 25th Amendment, to remove Trump from office. It was reported he verbally resigned to General John Kelly over the phone. https://www.axios.com/rod-rosenstein-resign-justice-department-trump-cf761f4c-fca3-4794-92d4-a56c9e32ff43.html ~ Bought the farm ( talk) 14:56, 24 September 2018 (UTC)
I think at this point we just need to wait. Spreading misinformation is too dangerous, and I'm glad that it's been locked. 199.74.8.4 ( talk) 16:01, 24 September 2018 (UTC)
We seem to have a stable situation for now. He met with Kelly, maybe he offered his resignation or maybe he didn't, but he is still on the job according to an official White House statement. He will meet with Trump on Thursday. Trump is in New York right now, at the UN meeting. I think we can leave it at that for the time being. -- MelanieN ( talk) 17:38, 24 September 2018 (UTC)

Rosenstein's crimes against humanity deserves its own section in the body of this article. —Мандичка YO 😜 11:37, 7 October 2020 (UTC)
Rosenstein was a contributor and interviewee on History Channel's program "America's Book of Secrets" season 2, episode 11. He first appears at 10m 57s into the episode. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:C6:8400:8180:1C32:225D:D5A9:69B8 ( talk) 03:53, 29 January 2022 (UTC)
Shouldn't it be mentioned in this article (if only briefly) that Rosenstein has worked since at least 2020 for the NSO Group? 76.190.213.189 ( talk) 03:24, 10 February 2023 (UTC)
