BRING YOUR KIDS to #NoKings on Saturday. This will be my 11-year-old’s third protest of the year.
Kids can’t vote and lack $$ to donate.
But they can stand and march and shout and sing. And they’ll remember — after we’re gone — how we taught them what we value. 🇺🇸🚫👑

Having passed up the opportunity years ago to run DOJ’s Civil Division, I’ve never run a large organization, let alone at DOJ.
So I’m no expert.
But I’m gonna spitball that if hundreds of your subordinates want to tell you to “go fuck yourself,” you might, perhaps, have a management problem.

Just to underscore the tension at DOJ at the moment, here's what one federal law enforcement official told me about the acting deputy attorney general:
"I, along with other career FBI and DOJ personnel that I’ve spoken with, really have one message for him and that is, “go fuck yourself, traitor.'"
"I, along with other career FBI and DOJ personnel that I’ve spoken with, really have one message for him and that is, “go fuck yourself, traitor.'"
Trump’s feared DOJ enforcer has a secret: He, too, investigated Jan. 6
The acting DOJ official behind a potential witch hunt against prosecutors and FBI agents who investigated the Capitol riot worked on Jan. 6 cases himself.
