Because, he signed off on fabricated evidence being used for a fisa application. And unlike Jeff Sessions, refuses to recuse himself. That is at the very least. He may also be facing a myriad of conspiracy charges as well. Correct me if I'm wrong.
What could be in the subsequent applications that could get Rosenstein in any trouble?

Yes it's "introduction" time for new eyes
The Secretary of State established the Global Engagement Center (GEC) in April 2016 pursuant to Executive Order 13721. The GEC was subsequently codified into law by Congress in the Fiscal Year (FY) 2017 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), which defined its mission as being to “lead, synchronize, and coordinate efforts of the Federal Government to recognize, understand, expose, and counter foreign state and non-state propaganda and disinformation efforts aimed at undermining United States national security interests.”
Recent news articles have reported that the State Department has not used all available funding for the GEC in FY2017, including a reported $19.8 million in State Department accounts, and that the Secretary of State has not requested transfer of Defense Department funds authorized under Section 1287. Observers cited in these reports have questioned whether the GEC continues to have support of State Department leadership or can effectively carry out its mandate, and whether organizational inefficiency or shifts in U.S. policy are behind these funding decisions. Senators Rob Portman and Chris Murphy, sponsors of the GEC legislation in the FY2017 NDAA, among other Members of Congress, have criticized the GEC funding situation, stating that GEC capabilities and effectiveness are harmed by the continued lack of funding. State Department officials have countered that reviews of various organizations, activities, and policies within the department are ongoing, with the goal of ensuring that resources are being used effectively, and that the delays in utilization of GEC funding can be attributed to such review.
On May 2, 2018, the GEC held its kickoff event for this technology series and participants agreed to hold short demonstrations of technology to counter foreign propaganda and disinformation through the end of 2018. These technologies may include, but are not limited to, bot network detection, blockchain-enabled content authentication, and counter-messaging automation. Participants were encouraged to address key concerns, such as:
Rapidly identify emerging propaganda and disinformation technologies.
Describe the dynamic interaction of cyber operations and information operations for influence purposes.
Identify technological vulnerabilities of propaganda and disinformation operations.
Predict adversaries’ adaptations to US efforts to counter foreign propaganda and disinformation.
Provide technological solutions to the challenges posed by generative adversarial networks (deepfakes).

How much does the new info really matter?
I remember when the first redacted Nunes memo came out , i think it was Snowden who said, 95 % of all FISA warrant applications get approved.
That is not good for anyone. So when they keep mentioning the judge shopping it makes me wonder, was their case THAT bad?
Well yes, obvioisly!
