The cockroaches are scurrying ahead of President Trump’s inauguration…

Jay Bratt, top prosecutor in Jack Smith’s classified documents case against President Trump, just abruptly resigned from the Department of Justice.

He was one of the main guys behind the raid on Mar-a-Lago.

News of Bratt’s sudden resignation comes from reporter Michael Isikof.

From SpyTalk:

A top Justice Department national security prosecutor has become an early casualty of the incoming Trump administration, abruptly resigning from the department last week before incoming appointees can retaliate against him for his key role in special counsel Jack Smith’s investigation into the former president.

The resignation of Jay Bratt, a career lawyer who served as chief of the counterintelligence and export controls section inside the national security division before being detailed to Smith’s staff, has not been publicly announced by the department.

But three sources familiar with the move described it to SpyTalk as a significant and even chilling event previewing a potential exodus of seasoned government lawyers and FBI agents who fear the wrath of Pam Bondi, Trump ’s pick for attorney general, Kash Patel, his intended nominee for FBI Director, and their expected army of MAGA loyalists in line to fill out top posts.

Raw Story added:

A Department of Justice attorney resigned from his post, and was immediately targeted by a Donald Trump legal ally.

Trump and his team are reportedly looking for retribution specifically against Jay Bratt, the counterintelligence chief within the Justice Department’s national security division. But Bratt has now reportedly resigned.

That won’t insulate him from becoming a target, according to former GOP staffer Mike Davis, who has made headlines for his social media comments in the past, and was rumored to be on Trump’s list for attorney general.

News of Bratt’s resignation comes just one day after President Trump announced that he is nominating Stanley Woodward as a top WH advisor.

Jay Bratt had threatened Woodward during the classified docs case…

As Julie Kelly pointed out:

Jay Bratt resigns. Rats are trying to flee the sinking ship.

This comes the day after Pres Trump announced Stanley Woodward, who Bratt threatened in the classified documents case that Bratt spearheaded, will be a top legal advisor in Trump White House. https://t.co/PVb8TW6SVJ

Former GOP staffer and attorney Mike Davis called out Jay Bratt on X:

You can run, Jay Bratt.

But you can’t hide.

You’re the biggest snake of them all.

You orchestrated the illegal Mar-a-Lago raid.

To coverup Crossfire Hurricane—the biggest scandal in American history.

Justice is coming.

Nobody is above the law.

Lawyer up, buttercup. https://t.co/tidnehOr4J

“You can run but you can’t hide…”

Let that be a message to all of those facing the hammer of justice underneath President Trump’s upcoming administration.

It’s long overdue.
