Joseph H. Thompson, a career federal prosecutor who was the acting U.S. attorney for Minnesota last year, quit after the Justice Department sought to examine the woman’s supposed ties to activist groups.
Notice how they federal government is targeting the victims, not the traitors who are levying war against the United States on orders from the White House
Won’t be long before the entire government is filled with loyalists. I guess this is why it took Hitler a few years to really get the ball rolling.
And if they stay, they get hung because “following orders is not an excuse”
I agree we need insiders to fight back but what do you want from them? Do you expected them to be jailed, their families homeless? Trump would find a way.
So, can’t say I blame them for wanting their names clear of this, without experiencing the revenge of a madman.
EDIT: clarity
It’s worth noting that almost all the rank and file just went home after the war. Nuremberg only prosecuted two hundred people. Only got 161 convictions, 37 death sentences. That’s all. Everyone else got to walk away.
I think ideally they’d stay and subtly fuck up the administration’s plans. Like how prosecutors routinely fail to indict cops. But that’s asking a lot
I’m not asking, expecting or blaming. Just making an observation.
