Two of the 46 attorneys were expected to stay on. A D.O.J. spokesperson told the Times that Trump personally called Dana Boente, in Virginia, and Rod Rosenstein, in Maryland, to tell them they would continue serving in their jobs. Boente is the acting deputy attorney general.

Edit to add: Rosenstein was appointed by Bush but stayed in with Obama.
