Acting attorney general instructs justice department NOT to defend Trumps Muslim ban.
 

WASHINGTON ? Acting Attorney General Sally Q. Yates, a holdover from the Obama administration, ordered the Justice Department not to defend President Trump?s executive order on immigration in court.

?I am responsible for ensuring that the positions we take in court remain consistent with this institution?s solemn obligaiton to always seek justice and stand for what is right,? Ms. Yates wrote in letter to Justice Department lawyers. ?At present, I am not convinced that the defense of the Executive Order is consistent with these responsibilities nor am I convinced that the Executive Order is lawful.?

Acting Attorney General Orders Justice Dept. Not to Defend Refugee Ban

Bet you wish Germany thought of this.

Next up: All of the DOJ senior US Attorneys resign.

or Breitbart legal section columnists ....

And he fired her and replaces with this:


Dana James Boente is the Acting Attorney General of the United States as of January 30, 2017 and was previously the United States Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia.

So this the plan...any dissent and you're out. Dangerous.

Yep! He signs an executive order without passing it through legal ( no smart business man would do this ) then fired the legal person who verifies its not legal. Stupid

Will be interesting if the supreme court neuters the EO too :2 cents:

People like JohnnyCucks are very short sited he'll just see it as Trump firing someone and cheer "Go team!" he's not capable of seeing the big picture and long term implications.

Who cares what she thinks? She just got FIRED! ROFL

This seems to be the case. "If you do not support the administration, you need to leave".

This is bullshit. This is not how our government works. This is going to come crashing down. Or at the very least be the least popular president in history.

waaaawaaaawaaaa :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Umm Trump won so you have to follow his plan. That's how it works you stupid dipshits! ROFL

Refusing to and instructing others to NOT uphold the law and defend a lawful executive order as Attorney General, is hardly "dissent" - its a gross violation of her oath of office and official duty to uphold the law.

you guys never stop grasping.

it was funner when you guys actually tried to make arguments about facts instead of just making endless emotional rants thoroughly devoid of facts.

Trump Train Full Steam Ahead :thumbsup
