A judge ruled Lindsey Halligan was unconstitutionally appointed. Donald Trump’s team doesn’t care.
The Justice Department is still signing criminal indictments with Lindsey Halligan’s name—almost a day after a judge ruled that she was unlawfully appointed as interim U.S. attorney.
Federal prosecutors were initially instructed to sign court filings in the name of Halligan’s first assistant, after U.S. District Judge Cameron Currie concluded Monday that Halligan had no authority to preside over the Eastern District of Virginia since she was never confirmed by the U.S. Senate. But just an hour later, internal emails instructed the department to continue using Halligan’s name, labeling Currie’s decision “premature,” reported MS NOW’s Lisa Rubin.
The move is a flagrant violation of Currie’s court order, which threw out Donald Trump’s cases against former FBI Director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James.
At this point, why are they even showing up in court? They’re just going to do what they want against court orders anyway.
You know how rapists force themselves on others? This same mentality seems to be shared by trump, his cabinet, and a lot of the gop.
I mean, a good chunk of higher level trump admin stooges are rapists, sooooo no surprise.
Only a good chunk?
There’s gotta be a token non-rapist in there somewhere, right?
Considering how incompetent they are, it wouldn’t surprise me at all if a staffer or two missed their Epstein Island onboarding without their supervisor noticing.
