A number of Department of Justice (DOJ) lawyers appointed by previous administrations have resigned to avoid dismantling the liberal agenda pursued under former President Barack Obama, according to The New York Times.
Yet the new direction has also met some resistance among rank-and-file civil servants. Within the Justice Department, several long-serving lawyers have decided to retire or quit rather than help carry out the new policies, people briefed on the departures told TheNYTimes.
Some of these lawyers also faced the unpalatable task of undoing their work defending Obama-era regulations, such as those on birth control and transgender rights. Rather than help roll back those rules, the officials decided to leave the government TheNYTimes reported.

They stuck it out for 7 1/2 months on the assurances from the media, Congress and the DNC that Donald was toast....imminently.
Not one nefarious plot has succeeded. In fact, every single one has backfired by focusing attention on the progs’ own malfeasance. Whatever they say, it is CYA. They are running away before the toxic tsunami touches their expensive shoes.

Don’t slam the screen door as you leave, please. Just leave, quietly. Now.

But this is the New York Slimes, so they're probably lying ...
To: Ernest_at_the_Beach
Hahaha. Winning! I guess they quit rather than ultimately losing their law licenses and languishing in prison. Hahaha.

Soooo....would these people have resigned under Jeb Bush or John Kasich?
Yeah, I don't think so either. So this is fabulous news.

When the Delusional Lying Left are in power, we have tyranny.
When the Delusional Lying Left are fearful and in travail, we have freedom.

Amen - Proverbs 29:2. I quoted it often when Barry Hussein was in power.
