    Remember, if you voted Trump, you failed the country. This is all your fault.

    Backlog of 3 million cases pending in immigration courts, so Pam Bondi is firing the immigration judges. Fuck due process, just throw the brown people out.

    The irony that they ran on a platform of distrusting the government only to now be a government no one can trust.

    My firm has taken up a case against an incorrectly incarcerated "illegal." These are considered immigration issues, but fighting them is like fighting a criminal law cases (very loose translation), but there are civil litigation options as well. That's where I and my colleagues will look at those options.

    With civil litigation, not much can be revealed at all. As for the immigration case I mentioned, we have a confidentiality agreement with our client, so I will not be able to disclose much of anything at this time.

    However, Upon conclusion of the cases, I may be able to share more.

    Senior DOJ prosecutor quit after being told to investigate Biden climate spending

    The top criminal prosecutor in the Washington, DC, US Attorney’s Office, Denise Cheung, resigned Tuesday after declining a request from her Trump-appointed superiors to open a grand jury investigation that she viewed as premature, according to multiple people familiar with the matter.

    The direction originated from Emil Bove, the department’s acting deputy attorney general, to Ed Martin, whom President Donald Trump has nominated to be the permanent DC US Attorney.

    Cheung, a long-time DOJ employee, had been asked to shepherd an investigation into an Environmental Protection Agency funding decision during the Biden administration and then use DOJ’s powers to freeze that funding.

    She refused the order and resigned, in part because she believed there wasn’t sufficient evidence to take that step at the time, as well as seeking to protect lower-level prosecutors from the work, source said.

    “Earlier yesterday, I was asked to review documentation supplied by the Office of the Deputy Attorney General to open a criminal investigation into whether a contract had been unlawfully awarded by an executive agency before the change in Administration and to issue grand jury subpoenas pursuant to this investigation,” Cheung wrote in a resignation letter to Martin on Tuesday obtained by CNN.

    Cheung noted in her letter that she and other experienced white-collar prosecutors looked at whether the DOJ had met its threshold for a grand jury investigation. While Bove’s office insisted that it had, citing a Project Veritas video, Cheung and others didn’t believe the evidence on hand was enough for a grand jury investigation, her letter and additional sources told CNN.

    She said after the pushback, the Justice Department instead wanted to freeze assets in a bank related to the Biden-era EPA funding.

    I read about this. On the one hand, standing up for your principles can be a great thing, and I even applaud it. On the other hand, they're just going to find someone else to do their dirty work. This administration is exactly as advertised.

    They want to break the government, blame democrats, then they claim they're the only ones who can fix it. The courts are going to be the first line of defense, but then the people are. We have to all, myself included, get out and get our voices heard. For, this is what this, and the other, resignations are designed to do.

    Not to mention false witness. Pride, greedy, sloth, envy, lust. Is there a deadly sin I missed?

    Those are the old ones.

    The new ones are:

    Charity, love, compassion, chastity, temperance, forgiveness, humility.
