Why did Rod Rosenstein testify at the 702 hearing today? Isn't Jeff Sessions the one who signed the 702 certification?

It's typically the DAG. Remember Cole did it in 2013/4 time frame. DAGs handle the FISAs, not AG.

No. Holder did a ton of them, and Lynch signed the October cert.

My time in leadership was DAG only testifying on FISAs post-Snowden.

And my time in leadership the DAG signed off on them. Which goes to my point it's not odd that Rod as DAG testified instead of Sessions.

I remember that Cole testified a bunch. But most of the 702 certs I can think of AG, not DAG, signed. Tho agree RR may have here.

One reason I ask is bc I don't think Collyer was honestly briefed on what they're doing.
