Donald Trump’s decision to nominate Sen. Jeff Sessions as attorney general is being met with alarm at the Justice Department’s civil rights division and could trigger an exodus there, former officials said Friday. Longtime lawyers in the unit that enforces voting rights laws, conducts investigations into alleged police abuses and prosecutes hate crimes were already on edge about what Trump’s victory would mean for their mission, but the selection of Sessions pushed those fears to another level, former officials said.

Unlike chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream, you can not have too much win.
I think you would get general agreement from anyone who voted for him. In the future we hope the delicate little snowflakes will learn something before they melt. The left is unfortunately hopeless.
Good!
I know some really fine, honest lawyers who are also NOT RACISTS who would love to work for DOJ and EQUAL justice before the law.
DRAIN THE SWAMP, DONALD!
End racism, Anti-Americanism, Anti-Chritistianity, and Anti-Semitism in our government!
End anti-business attitudes and policies, bring back JOBS JOBS JOBS for American citixens!
Great...and didn’t we just see where someone in that group has been working illegally (not as in illegal immigrant) and her actions could be in jeopardy.
On the other hand it will create work for carpenters, building all the new white robe and hat storage closets in DOJ offices around the country /s
Self-draining Swamp
Sounds like a win to me.
Does anyone know how this system really works. IF you want to fire these people but can’t because of the Union or whatever rule is in place..can you put them anywhere you want..just as long as they stay employed? Can you transfer them out of DC and not get a lawsuit slapped on you?
Promises promises.
“Leave their nice, cushy federal job? Doubt it.”
Wonder why these idiots would think anyone cares? Hopefully, those who are appointees will be asked for their resignations regardless.
The lights have been flicked on and da roaches is runnin.
if they don’t leave they should be fired immediately.
The great sucking sound of racially biased attorneys leaving the DOJ is more musical to my ears than Perot’s giant sucking sound of NAFTA.
Spontaneous Human Combustion,,
The Alt-Left.
Is there bad news in this article?
Maybe some of them will turn state’s evidence to save their crooked hides and provide what is needed to lock up a bunch of the rest of them.
From what I understand of hiring practices, you can fire someone if their position has been cut and no longer exists. They have the right to apply for a transfer to another position in the government, but they are competing with other government employees for that position.
You can fire someone if they are not doing their job and you can document it. That is, you counsel them on what they are not doing (and document it), come up with a plan for them to rectify their behavior, and fire them if they do not follow the plan. It is a lengthy process. The laws about firing people are pretty strict, actually--after reading them, I get the impression that government employers could legally fire more people, but don't for whatever reason.
And the employer has the right to transfer any employee to any position for which the employee has the skills and the employer has the need. I'm not certain about the moving part.
Another tyrannical, unelected bureaucracy decimated by Donald Trump’s mere presence??? How lucky can we be!!
I know. I thought about that, but then decided to discard the nuances. Can one use person here? Or does personhood conote sexuality and a sexual orientation. I have become very conscious of the discrimination against folks who have no sexual orientation, that class of individuals who feel discriminated against because sexuality and sexual orientation is not part of who they are. It’s a conundrum.
