“This alleged misconduct is beyond the pale & must be investigated immediately,” #DickDurbin wrote to the independent #IG….

The accusation comes as the cmte prepares to vote Thurs on whether to send #KashPatel’s nom to the #Senate floor. Durbin said that if the allegations were true, then the acting No.2 at the #Justice Dept, #EmilBove, fired career civil servants “solely at the behest of a private citizen,” & that Patel “may have perjured himself” at his confirmation hearing.

In his letter, #DickDurbim recounted a meeting between #EmilBove, who helped spearhead mass firings of #DOJ prosecutors, & #FBI leadership. Bove supposedly told the bureau ofcls that #StephenMiller [evil f⁕⚠︎k] was pressuring him on #KashPatel’s behalf to move more quickly in dismissing snr career ofcls at the FBI.
Durbin cited accounts from “multiple sources” & quoted contemporaneous notes as corroboration. Durbin said the notes read: “KP wants movement at FBI, reciprocal actions for DOJ.”

@Nonilex I don't understand how sternly-worded letters and appeals to courts will faze them.

I've deleted at least 10 paragraphs because I'm angry at the Democratic party for being the overpaid, slow-witted, outmaneuvered, excuse-making colleagues of fascists. Good luck, Dick. Without handcuffs and perp walks, the midterm turnout will be abysmal.

I just deleted 5 more. I'm posting this now because I need to get other things done besides vent at a party that left us behind, but whose elites live high on the hog on salaries their net worth dwarfs. Maseratis. Yachts. Second homes. Multi-million dollar investments. Yet they dragged their feet in the face of a fascist coup.

Well, fascism can be profitable, if you join the fascists.

The party of the people will save us.

I'm so angry, it's unsafe to type.
