Top DOJ officials resign after midterm landslide, including head of ‘grand conspiracy’ investigation
WASHINGTON — The Donald Trump appointee who headed the office running a “grand conspiracy” investigation into federal law enforcement officials who were involved in prior investigations of Trump has resigned.
What the coverage shows
Both outlets focus on the resignation itself, with CBS News leading on the abrupt departure of the top lawyer in DOJ’s National Security Division and the attorney general’s announcement. The Washington Post frames the item as part of a broader set of DOJ departures and, unlike CBS, names two officials in its headline and extract. CBS alone mentions John Eisenberg stepping down Friday.
