Can’t like something this horrific …. But it’s obvious that we are becoming as lawless as El “Slaveador”.

The fired DOJ lawyers ought to start their own firm and attract lawyers from the quisling law firms that caved to Trumphuk, Bondi, Vought & Miller—AKA -Dewey, Cheetoh, and Howmuch!

God forbid an attorney should tell the truth in court. They will fire anyone who fails to see that truth is a matter of the regime’s opinion and that facts are not truths.

They are officially ignoring court rulings. We are the only line of defense. Are we ready to make major sacrifices for strangers? For our children? Like, spending time and money, getting into good trouble, getting audited, harassed, losing jobs, getting arrested, beaten, maybe even killed?

If not, then they win. The country and species are over and your kids are fucked.

It’s really that simple.

Far more worrying than every good (and necessary) thing they are stopping doing, is what they are going to start doing, with all their time, money, and personnel. Let's remember they've only been in power three months.

Your mom left her dildos, meth pipe and delousing shampoo at my trailer.

All the more reason (Reuveni's firing for doing the right thing) for Judge Xinis (or any of these judges) to start holding these government lawyers in contempt and throwing them in jail until the govt. starts complying with the courts' rulings. Abrego Garcia should be released from CECOT, assuming he's even still alive.

Defying an order by the Supreme Court is more than the thin end of the wedge; it is the end of the rule of law in the US

MAGA gets rid of the Civil Rights Division … Trump issues an EO combatting “anti-Christian” (read anti WHITE Christian) behavior. Go figure—bigotry needs no logic.

“Anti- Christian” Executive Order from DJT - for real? That’s an oxymoron if ever there was one! His entire Team and their supporters are in violation of the teachings of Jesus of Nazareth which have been so impactful that they have been somewhat preserved through millennia.

What a joke!

Not to mention the violation of our Constitution and Civil Rights.

Neither irony nor self-reflection are in the Republican repertoire.

She’s an Indian born Stephen Miller. Holy Moly, that woman is evil. Her CV is unbelievable in the breadth of hypocrisy and outright fraud.

Perfect for the Rrump DoJ.

Can, and should, Metcalfe pursue her claim in federal courts without DoJ support?

Well of course this happened. No surprises emanating from this ghoulish DOJ and its crime boss, Dear Leader. It’s going to get far worse before it gets better.

Family member is an attorney in the civil rights division of DOJ. I wish I could tell you how they’re messing with these dedicated public servants. He may take the early out. I personally think his well-being demands it.
