Richard Pilger, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) Director of the Election Crimes Branch, has resigned following Attorney General William Barr's authorization earlier today for federal prosecutors to investigate allegations of voter fraud in the 2020 presidential election.
Pilger reportedly tendered his resignation within hours of Barr's green-lighting of investigations into allegations of fraud that have yet to be substantiated, The New York Times reported.
The re-election campaign of Republican President Donald Trump and various Republican political leaders on the federal and state level have alleged that fraudulent ballots swung the contentious presidential race into the favor of Trump's opponent, Democratic President-elect Joe Biden...

so... does THIS qualify as news? or will twitter and other news agencies refuse to report on this? or allow posts on it?
...why would one investigate something that has already been substantiated?...
Probably should be looking to see if this deep state criminal was working with, or knew of the strategies the left has been employing to steal elections, going back in time.
I wonder how voluntary this resignation was.
Hell turn up on cnn any day now.
The swamp draining itself now?
Of course with all he has done for the democrats i’ sure he will have a nice book deal or soft landing at some corp with a no show job until he starts collecting his Gov pension if he hasn’t already.
Lois Lerner, there’s another POS that should be behind bars but is now living comfy off our tax dollars. The IRS should have a look at her taxes
It is a sign that Trump should have fired him long ago, if possible.
Maybe he was afraid they’d find him complicit in something.
But I’m not holding my breath.
Maybe Brett and Chris will give the guy a tongue bath.....
Door, ass, etc...
The policy that Barr lifted was a stupid assed policy.
If you don’t investigate until the election is certified, then the bad guys always win.
How much you want to bet he’s actually waist-deep in the swamp?
Was he a career guy? Not a political appointee?
He worked in the same job he held until today, DOJs Election Crimes Branch director. It's unbelievable he wasn't fired in 2016, as it was clear he obstructed congress in 2012, refused to investigate legitimate election crimes, and covered for the IRS. And his branch was responsible for sending people out to the very places where votes were manufactures last week. Instead of investigating election crime, the Election Crimes Branch was committing them. Failure to weed out people like this was Trump's undoing.
Amphibious creature from the black lagoon. SES goon.
Amen to that! Hope another Swamp Creature doesn't replace Pilger though.
If he refuses to testify before Congress, issue him a subpoena, served by US Marshalls. If he refuses to come after that, haul his ass into the hearings, try to put him under oath, and if he refuses, hold him contempt of Congress and have him taken directly to either jail or a sitting grand jury where he can’t take the 5th without serious penalties.
Always wondered why Lerner and her crooked boss Koskinen were never held in contempt. This Pilger guy might hold the answer. Get all his records going back to the beginning of time, including his phone calls and emails if possible.
Time to take off the “kid gloves” and put on iron ones.
The entire department is infested with leftists, Communists, cheats, and liars.
Sessions did nothing about it.
Whitaker did nothing about it.
Barr did nothing about it.
I hope President Trump has another ace up his sleeve, because if we are going to beat back this stolen election, we'll get no help from the "Justice" Dept.
sounds like a fox guarding the henhouse...
