More than 1,000 DOJ alumni call for Barr's resignation after intervention in Stone sentencing

, and one of the prosecutors left the department altogether.

The Justice Department's actions sparked heated criticism, with Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer calling for the inspector general to launch an investigation into "improper political interference in a criminal prosecution.", said the initial recommendation of 7-9 years had "surprised" him and once it became public, he had made plans to amend it prior to Trump's criticisms on Twitter.

The alumni said it is unheard of for top DOJ officials to overrule line prosecutorsin order to give preferential treatment to a close associate of the president.

Oh goodie, 1000 people that no longer work at the DOJ, have no facts about the situation, giving silly and stupid opinions on what Barr should do. I got 60,000,000 people telling me the opposite

Where were they when Holder was declared Obama’s wingman? Such bullshit.

Nobody cares what 1000 or a million ‘Former’ officials think. That’s why they are former officials. Maybe you should ask the 100,000 DOJ employees? They won’t agree.

He's got Trump's back. He is not going anywhere, the big sellout to democracy

Go after Pelosi with a vengeance. Expose her criminal activities and fire her from government

Learned it all from Holder.

These are all FORMER DOJ employees. The Department of Justice employs more than 115,000 talented and diverse women and men to help meet its mission and goals

Just goes to show how political the swampy DOJ was ! Needs more house cleaning!!

The juror was biased. Whether you’re a Republican or a Democrat, everybody deserves a fair trial

bullish

If I heard it correctly in his interview, the muller lawyers went rogue on him and basically set him up by doing their own recommendations to the judge, contrary to what was agreed upon. Surprisingly the rogue lawyers were not fired.

Enough of these phony surveys! Voters are not that dumb

When they speak up louder for tougher sentences on violent crime convictions, they might be taken seriously. Otherwise, they are just part of the problem.

Are these OBama leftovers who have questionable careers and something to hide

Pretty sure Barr doesn’t care.

So?

At least you know Barr is doing the right thing now.

Didn’t Eric Holder say he was Obama’s wing man?

Surprise!, the AG did not over sentence Stone, the prosecutors did. The prosecutors are linked to Mueller and Clinton. They resigned. All those who should have resigned did. It is over. tt:SaraCarterDC maggieNYT

It really doesn't matter who you support or what your affiliation, this is a pretty convincing argument that Barr has messed up and did wrong. When your peers across the spectrum do this it's time we paid heed. Barr must resign.

I looked at the list of cosigners in the A's A list of career bureaucrats or people from the Obama administration They aren't employed by the DOJ any longer so their time is over And where were they when other abuses of justice were occurring under previous administrations?

More proof that Barr is over the target.

And?

Blah blah blah 😑....

And nobody cares

that's what they call unethically acting on ones orders to save your job,Barr you really acted unprofessional. Resign Your not representing the US

Should Obama be in prison?

So what ?

' alumi' and which administration did they work for? I wonder... 🤔

Meanwhile Meet Buttigieg:

Perhaps he would listen were they only alums to the people’s liberation army 😓

All the more reason I’m casting my vote for Trump!

Better luck next time, please try again

The alumni are corrupt. The trial was a fraud
