After 36 years, Im fleeing what was the U.S. Department of Justice where I proudly served 19 different attorneys general and six different presidents. For the last three-plus decades, I have respected our leadership regardless of whether we were led by a Republican or a Democrat. I always believed the departments past leaders were dedicated to the rule of law and the guiding principle that justice is blind. That is a bygone era, but it should not be forgotten.
Maybe I shouldve seen this coming, but like many of my colleagues, I fervently hoped that Attorney General William Barrs preemptive misrepresentation of special counsel Robert Muellers report was an honest mistake or a solitary misstep rather than a deliberate attempt to conceal potential presidential misconduct. After all, Barr has never actually investigated, charged or tried a case. Hes a well-trained bureaucrat but has no actual experience as a prosecutor.
Unfortunately, over the last year, Barrs resentment toward rule-of-law prosecutors became increasingly difficult to ignore, as did his slavish obedience to Donald Trumps will in his selective meddling with the criminal justice system in the Paul Manafort, Michael Flynn and Roger Stone cases. In each of these cases, Barr overruled career prosecutors in order to assist the presidents associates and/or friends, who potentially harbor incriminating information. This career bureaucrat seems determined to turn our democracy into an autocracy.

So you worked for Barr before... What’s different this time? The fact that he is doing what hes supposed to do for an administration you despise? Perhaps the problem is you and the fact that you are a partisan when you should be indifferent to whomever is office. Your personal agenda is coloring your professional perspective. Its good that you are leaving, as you are no longer fit to hold the position you have held.
After decades of furthering corruption it never occurred to you that maybe you are the problem?
Nothing is better than what happened under Sessions. The witch hunts against conservatives have stalled.
This corrupt turd worked for the corrupt bigot Eric Holder and liked it .... one sad sick puppy.
Watch out for the Door
Eff the eff OFF, then, and GOODBYE.
If you didn’t see the corruption then you were probably part of it.
Maybe retiring before being FIRED???
Don’t let the door hit ya!
Another drip leaving the swamp.
I wondered about that too.
One less obstructionist loser to fire come the day.
Bye Felicia
I think we found another deep state rat who is part of the problem and fleeing a sinking ship.
I guess it would appear that way - if you're a Democrat.
LOL! (the thing)
but he was okay with the Eric Holder and Susan Rice eras.
I found a Philip (one 1) Halpern who was a private practice lawyer and was appointed to the US District Court in 2018. Never in public service until then that I can tell.
This person is Phillip (two l) Halpern. Not sure who this cat is.
PANIC in DC!
