Rosenstein thought McCabe irrational and/or criminal and took investigation out of McCabe's hands.

Result: No obstruction. Rosenstein/Barr rule no collusion.

Only place Barr invokes Rosenstein in his letter is on issue of collusion.

Rosenstein still there. McCabe grand jury.
I think Rosenstein found himself in an exceedingly difficult position during an incredibly chaotic time and simply did what he thought was most appropriate at that moment.

The next few months should tell us much more.
Meanwhile:

Barr: One of the things I want to do is pull together all the information from the various investigations that have gone on including on the Hill and in the Department..."
Correction in first tweet.

Result: No Collusion. Rosenstein/Barr rule no Obstruction. Only place Barr invokes Rosenstein in his letter is on issue of Obstruction.

Referenced Collusion/Obstruction backwards in 1st tweet.
For those who might care, here is an older article from 2011 I stumbled across describing Rosenstein's career as US Attorney of Maryland. I found it interesting.
