The DOJ needs to open an office in Nome, Alaska to send all the reassigned workers. Instead of work from home, it will be work from Nome.

It would appear to me that AG Blondie is the one responsible for this shakeup, not Trump. If so, good.

“It’s been a complete bloodbath,”

If only that were the case.

Agreed.

The DOJ has a lot of cutting and slashing of staff remaining to be done.

Rumors (and hints in the article) are that more is underway but I have no sources yet that are acceptable here.

Translation: Trump got rid of a bunch of Leftist scum.

Sounds GREAT to me.

So they all died in the violence?

Or is it just a well-known turn of phrase NBC rediscovered after the election.

Trump believes that ALL Americans have civil rights. Not just those Persons of Preferred Pigmentation as the Liberal Narrative requires.

Name me a lawyer who doesn’t think they are royalty.”
There are 1.3 million lawyers in the USA. We got a lotta kings.

ANOTHER BLOOD BATH!

Some have resigned in frustration after they were moved to less desirable roles unrelated to their expertise, according to the sources.

less desirable roles unrelated to their expertise, sounds a bit uppity, why I never!

Sorry, you got me, I didn’t read that far, and I just figured that these were DEI types moved into less powerful jobs and whining about that. I, too, am an attorney, and I, personally, don’t denigrate the importance of record being right.

On voting rights, the division successfully challenged an Arizona law requiring people registering to vote to list their birthplaces and provide proof of citizenship.
*********
Total waste of our tax dollars and perversion of the law. Nothing wrong with asking where they were born or to provide proof of citizenship in order to vote.

“This is a 180 shift from the division’s traditional mission,” said a former senior official in the division who declined to be named in fear of retaliation.

"Traditional?" More like dems want to keep cheating.

They’ll find a low court judge to tell the president to re-hire them all.

Awesome! Another unelected policy-maker that Trump can ignore.

With half the population depending on the importance of (the?) record being wrong, we're going to have to put the pedal to the metal.

This is a good start! Now, get the rest of them to quit.

“I voted for this, as did probably 90% of the people I know.”

Yes, over 75% of voters support Trump on cleaning house and immigration.

But not tariffs. The Trump team is doing an atrocious job of explaining/selling tariffs. As it stands now, 2026 will be a referendum on tariffs and Republicans will lose big time.

Who cares, this is the last chance to change course. If not Trump then who? Based on all of the gloBULList Free Traitors™ around here I am losing hope.
