Yes, there are Qs about Trump's prior apparent agreement to keep Bharara on — but, like, Trump changing his mind isn't exactly surprising.

But, the bigger picture here is that the handling of things on Friday IS different than past administrations — yes, even Reno in '93.

But, doing it with no advance notice and ordering resignations that day — and to be effective immediately — is different.
