Was it in the election of 1998... that highly credible accusations of election interferences were filed with the US Attorney’s office in Seattle ?
Candidates on the ballot were receiving coordinated and credible “anonymous” death threats... by email.
But, the sender didn’t known how to mask the headers.
The threats were easily traced back to a West Seattle address that was the regional headquarters for Acorn.
The US Attorney’s office refused to investigate...
Three times it was run up the flagpole...
The last time... the career DOJ employees who were concerned about the PROOFS in the EVIDENCE IN HAND... wanting to prosecute it and chalk up an easy win... were told their jobs were at risk if they ever brought it up again. They were PROHIBITED from spending government work time or resources on addressing the concern... ever.
In result... the denial of access to government time and resources... meant that private time and resources applied in monitoring relevant information was the only recourse...
The Makarov... what’s left to be done when good people do the right thing ?

“This guy needs to be disbarred.”
The legal “profession” is self regulating. Disbarment rarely occurs. The wolves in the pack protect each other, not the sheep.
Consider lawyers (politicians) write the laws (rules), interpret the rules (judges), and enforce the rules (judges), and “discipline” fellow lawyers. There are no checks and balances. There is no oversight.
Kirkland & Ellis = DEEP STATE.

If it were me, I would have immediately ALSO filed an employment action against my superiors AND gone to conservative media with their names.
I just never gave a damn and did face down superiors successfully in my time and seen them fired.
Note the timelines... and changes between 1998 and, say, 2001...
Study the history of the Bush Administration’s feeble and failed attempts to reform the DOJ by “clearing the underbrush” of bad actors... and how, when Democrats responded like scalded cats to firing bad apples... the R’s responded only with surprise and surrender...
There’s also a history with Acorn... and again, note the timeline... and what it took for Congress to finally take action and... you can’t say solve the problem, since they have not solved it... force Acorn to disperse and rebrand.
Some of that is precursor...
As Clinton did when he took office... you fire ALL OF THEM and start over... right after the election... as that’s “not political interference”... but “elections have consequences”.
Trump, not an inside baseball guy in 2015/6... and in result, without a home team, mostly unable, at that point, to do a quality sort... an issue in rhyming over the last four years that also shows... no obvious boundary between “rank ignorance” and “keep your friends close, and your enemies closer”...
When your “employers” would rather put a hit out on you than let you do your job... I don’t think HR is going to be the answer.
