It's fake news that:
Multiple senior prosecutors in Washington and Minnesota are leaving their jobs amid turmoil over the Trump administration’s handling of the shooting death of a Minneapolis woman.
The departures include at least five prosecutors from the U.S. attorney’s office in Minneapolis, including the office’s second-in-command, according to emails obtained by The Washington Post and people familiar with the matter.

It's fake. They announced their retirements prior to the shooting.
Harmeet rocks.
Do not be surprised if none of the Drive-By Media correct anything.
Perhaps they will revert to:
Fake, But Accurate
However much you hate the lamestream lying mofos in the mainstream media, it’s not enough!
bttt
Yep. All fake news meant to sell a lie to the public. Should be sued.
I dont remember anyone in the DOJ objecting to Michael Byrd murdering Ashlii Babbitt oh wait she supported Trump so she deserved to be slaughtered in cold blood
I’ll be surprised if even one does correct. Saul Alinski.
” The Washington Post and people familiar with”
Sources say...
As a Federal retiree who took a buyout in January 2013, I suspected the lamestream media reports were untrue.
Yeah..... soooo sick of the lyin SOB’s.
“”””At least 6 Minnesota federal prosecutors resign amid pressure to treat Renee Good killing as assault on ICE agent

I posted the CBS story about DOJ resignations last night.
It seems that CBS should have had more than FIVE reporters on the story and maybe if CBS had put TEN reporters on the story, they could have simply called the DOJ to get the real facts.
I do want to bring this tidbit regarding the MN resignations to this thread. I have seen a photo of Atty Joe Thompson and he looks to be about 50 years old. So while most of the resignations took a package, maybe Joe got a termination notice. Joe does seem to favor the Biden side. -—
From the NYT here is more information on Atty Joe Thompson.
It is obvious that his loyalties did not line up with Trump!!!!!
“””””In 2023, Thompson was assigned to the team that investigated former President Joseph R. Biden for keeping classified documents in his residence and office after his term as vice president ended. That team chose not to criminally charge Mr. Biden, having concluded that his cognitive decline would likely stand in the way of a successful prosecution.”””””
You can read the NYT story about Thompson here-—
Even if it had been true, I was still celebrating getting rid of Democrats in those positions. For they offered nothing as far as I am concerned.
We’ve already heard Mostly Peaceful, from iHeart radio.
"Joseph H. Thompson, the lead prosecutor on the Department of Justice’s (DOJ) investigation into social services fraud in the state, served as the first assistant U.S. attorney in the U.S. attorney’s office for the District of Minnesota."

Mr. Thompson worked for US Attorney in Minnesota...He did NOT work for the Civil Rights Division...I think that Assistant Attorney General Dhillon only spoke about people who worked in her office, the Civil Rights Division...I do not think that she spoke out about people who quit US Attorney's Office in Minnesota...After all, she is NOT the US Attorney in Minnesota...
I do not think that Daniel Rosen, US Attorney for Minnesota, made any comments about why some people in his office left...
I have no idea why he has not responded like Ms. Dhillon...Maybe the news report is correct...Some people in his office quit because they did not like how the shooting investigation is being done...
I do not trust liberal media all the time...But, sometimes the liberal media is correct in reporting what happened...
The first article I read mentioned the shooting but kept reading...and them leaving had
“0” , nada, nothing to do with the shooting.
The Ding Dong Daddy Press of Minneapolis / Saint Paul have mastered the art of Joseph Goebbels.
Notice how they treated the assassination of Ashli Babbitt
after Jan. 6th. Compare that to the coverage of the righteous shooting of Good.
Only Democrat cops are allowed to use deadly force.They have kinder, gentler bullets.
And they better get ready to demonstrate their use.
False story about the attorneys leaving: “Pop the bourbon and the pop corn.’ The Left is running into the ditch.
