Trump Fires Entire DOJ Legal Team on Census Question
To get your Monday off to a roaring start, the NYTimes is reporting that the DOJ has replaced the entire legal team defending Trump’s outrageous attempt to circumvent the SCOTUS by insisting that the citizenship question go on to the census form in defiance of their ruling. According to reporting, lawyers in the federal programs branch of the DOJ were defending the case and are known for being particularly non-political. Anonymous sources in the DOJ are confirming that this team of lawyers was refusing to sign the arguments that Trump, through Barr were insisting on, because those arguments are obvious and provable lies. Trump’s solution? Fire the entire team and bring in other more compliant lawyers.
Your president at work.
