Strong rumor with credible sourcing: DOJ has put all of public integrity line attorneys in a room and told them they have an hour for someone to choose who will sign motion to dismiss and if nobody does, they will all be fired. The nastiest strong-arming in DOJ history by a long shot.

Of course she's corrupt and cheap...

This is happening just as the last of the men and women who defeated the Axis powers are dying out.
They're being betrayed, as are we all.

(53,214 posts)the same types of people come crawling out from under their rocks to do it all over again. "Never again" only lasts as long as the memories do.
I'll never understand the motivations of these people. It always ends badly, but unfortunately innocent people get hurt the most.

(53,214 posts)I can put myself in many people's shoes, often shoes I would never consider wearing, but this I cannot wrap my head around. The best I can come up with right now is "evil", something I refused to believe in until recent years.
Irish_Dem
(81,259 posts)Yes I know, just as all the WWII vets are dying out, this is no coincidence.
They knew a fascist regime could not be installed while those vets were still alive and cognizant.
They knew they had to let them die out and have decades of Fox News propaganda
brainwash the next generations.

As I am fond of saying, today's fascists are no different than those my father fought against 85 years ago; today's fascists just have better tailors.

(4,252 posts)... DO die, and maybe make their spawn think twice before following in their footsteps. But you're right; there will always be more of them, so keep your powder dry, and your sights zeroed in.

(4,715 posts)I was fired from a government job because I refused to do something that was unethical. I know that I can look at myself in the mirror and not be ashamed.
Definitely worth it. My family was on board with my decision.

We don't have the votes in Congress, and the only alternative we have is the legal system, which is no guarantee and a very slow process.
If people could get organized to demonstrate their displeasure through mass protests it would send a very loud message, but it can't be just a one-time thing. The Civil RIghts movement should be taken a the example of how it is down, and to some degree the Viet Nam war protests. But it will still take time, and if it could allow us to retake Congress back in midterms, it might reverse what is happening.

patphil
(9,067 posts)That's never going to happen, no matter what she does.
Give the deep, and nearly equal divide in the electorate, the impeachment process is an exercise in futility.
No party is going to get that kind of majority, and you'll never get near enough Senators to cross over and vote to convict.
The impeachment process is broken, and will probably never be a viable option again.
It's all for show now.
