Justice Dept. Leader Suggested Violating Court Orders, Whistle-Blower Says

“Bove stated that D.O.J. would need to consider telling the courts ‘fuck you’ and ignore any such order.” This story is just a blockbuster in every way - exposing Bove & others to both contempt and a suite of bar ethics charges. Hope to add more as time permits, but the whistleblower a hero.

Thank you

The odd thing about this is the new electric mail trucks are made by a military contractor (Oshkosh Corporation) at a new assembly plant in South Carolina staffed by ~1,000 new workers.

So killing it just means taking away military contractor jobs from a red state.

Congratulations
