Shortened title.

Full title: FOIA Docs: Twice-Demoted DOJ Official Bruce Ohr Received $28,000 Bonus During Work on Sketchy Dossier

This is a prime example of what historically sent people to the pitchforks. According to newly released FOIA documents received by Judicial Watch, twice-demoted DOJ official Bruce Ohr received pay raises and a $28,000 bonus while working on the anti-Trump operation.

Bruce Ohr was originally demoted in December 2017 stripping away his title of associate deputy attorney general based on what DOJ officials said were “undisclosed contacts” with FBI informant Christopher Steele. We later found out Bruce Ohr completely disclosed his contacts; so his first demotion was a complete CYA move by DOJ officials (ie. Rosenstein).

A month later, in January 2018, Bruce Ohr was demoted a second time, removing his title as head of the DOJ Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Force. No reason was given for the second demotion. His employment remained (as it does today) but no official word as to his title.

All of those documents were electronically signed by three different individuals: Tracy Melton, Theresa Toll, and Winston Farmer. If any of these people had the final say in his bonuses, they should be questioned as to why they authorized them.

I wonder how much they’re paying Timothy McVeigh (or whatever his name is, now) these days.

Well, sure. Ask Nellie. If Dan Marino had held the ball laces out, Bruce wouldn’t have had to work on a Democrat coup of a legally-elected President.

“...they should be questioned as to why they authorized them”.

A $28,000 bonus? Do tell.

Yes, I think someone needs to answer some questions.

People in DC make more money than people anywhere else in the country. Where's the outcry about this REAL income inequality?
