Justice Dept. Cancels Entry-Level Job
Offers in Honors Program

Original Article

Posted By: His_Highness, 1/27/2025 12:35:44 PM

The Justice Department has abruptly rescinded job offers made to dozens of recent law school graduates who were to be placed in entry-level positions in its antitrust, criminal, civil rights, immigration and national security divisions, and at the F.B.I., according to people familiar with the situation  The offers were made through the Attorney General’s Honors Program, which has functioned without controversy — or much notice — under presidents of both parties for decades. The program appears to be the latest target of Trump political appointees intent on reversing even the most workaday decisions made by their predecessors.

Comments:

Who would be shocked to learn that this "Honors Program" was used to embed Leftists at all levels of the Justice Department?

It doesn't make sense to be hiring when you expect to do a RIF.

What is so wonderful about this article by a NY Times democrat communist propaganda hack is that a mental image comes into your mind of the writer alternatively sobbing uncontrollably and shrieking curses at the top of their lungs at President Trump because another avenue of infiltration by the communist death democrats has been abruptly shut down. Cheers!

It's Ok to admit it NYS. The Dept of Just-Us had no choice but to shut down its quota hires program. One wonders what is to become of our goobernment agencies and departments now that quota hiring isn't allowed.

They mention a few times that the program is non-political. Which means it’s political.

"The program appears to be the latest target of Trump political appointees intent on reversing even the most workaday decisions made by their predecessors." Yep. Just completely normal and routine wokeaday decisions made by wokeaday bureaucrats to perpetuate the wokeaday government. Why would anyone even notice?

It was a DEI program. FTA: It is one of the first of many moves expected in the coming days aimed at ridding the department of career lawyers and freezing programs that select applicants using diversity rules

Of course the NY Times is incensed about this. In my opinion this move just prevents the DOJ from hiring more Marxist law school recruits before Trump gets a handle on just how corrupt the DOJ really is. Smart move.

According to the article, not hiring new lawyers at the DOJ is going to affect the care at VA Hospitals. True to form, trot them out when you can take advantage of them. All other time, dogs and soldier ... STAY OFF THE GRASS.

We have been hiring someone to do a job, then they hire someone else to do the job. This DC farce would be another area where Musk could save a trillion dollars for us.

Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) has released a joint statement with Danish Member of Parliament Aaja Chemnitz announcing that Greenland may be “open for business, but not for sale.” President Donald Trump has been floating the purchase of Greenland for several months and recently sent the Danish government into “crisis mode” after he pressed the prime minister about it over a phone call. As Breitbart News reported: The Danish government reportedly descended into “crisis mode” following a call between President Donald Trump and Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, during which the U.S. leader is said to have forcefully reiterated America’s desire to acquire Greenland.

Caroline Kennedy has released an extraordinary video of comments to senators where she calls her cousin RFK Jr. a 'predator' who set family members on a path to drug addiction and mistreated small animals. The daughter of President John F. Kennedy said she held back on criticism of her cousin during his failed presidential campaign due to her role as U.S. ambassador to Australia. But she unloaded on her famous relative in her statement on the eve of his Senate confirmation hearing, as he faces an uncertain future in the Senate as Donald Trump's pick to lead the Health and Human Services Department.

A Catholic charity that receives billions in government funding has stirred controversy for a video teaching migrants in the country illegally how to evade US immigration law. In the video, distributed by Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of Milwaukee’s Refugee & Immigration Services Program, immigration attorney Barbara Graham outlines step-by-step instructions for how migrants can thwart authorities conducting lawful investigations at their workplace.(Photo) “Do not panic, and do not run away. If you are frightened and feel like you need to leave, you can calmly walk toward the exit,” Graham advised. “If you are stopped, you may ask if you are free to leave. If the officer says no,

Target has been banned from participating in the Minneapolis Pride parade after the retail store decided to axe its DEI program. The retailer has long supported Twin Cities Pride, but after news broke of the company deciding to cut back on its policies, the pride organization's Executive Director Andi Otto banished the store and its $55,000 in funding. The parade organization took to social media on Sunday to share that the company's decision - announced in a newsletter on Friday - was 'the breaking point', even though Target was expected to sponsor the parade again this year.

Border czar Tom Homan said Monday night the Trump administration has “no apologies” for the ICE raids targeting illegal migrants in the US when asked about Selena Gomez’s since-deleted Instagram post in which she sobbed over the law enforcement action. “All my people are getting attacked, the children. I don’t understand. I’m so sorry, I wish I could do something, but I can’t. I don’t know what to do. I’ll try everything, I promise,” Gomez said in the video. (Photo) Gomez was slammed for sounding out of touch and quickly took down the video, writing on her Instagram story, “Apparently it’s not ok to show empathy for people.”
Desperate Dems Throw Eggs At Trump 22 replies

After four years spent denying that inflation was a problem, Democrats are suddenly screaming at President Donald Trump for not having lowered the price of eggs already. “Democratic lawmakers slam Trump for not making good on promise to ‘immediately’ lower food prices amid egg shortage,” shouts NBC News, pointing to a letter signed by Sen. Elizabeth Warren and other leftist lawmakers who accuse Trump of backtracking on his promise to deal with Bidenflation. This is all part of a coordinated – and rather pathetic – campaign by the left, which is saying things such as “Under Donald Trump’s leadership, egg prices

This weekend, a radio station owned by the George Soros-controlled Audacy outrageously identified the vehicle whereabouts of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents operating in San Jose, California, which is known for violent gang activity. KCBS 740 AM – not to be confused with the Los Angeles CBS affiliate with the same name – elevated the insane unmasking of ICE agents from the leftist Rapid Response Network, which fights against deportation initiatives during the January 26 edition of KCBS Radio Weekend News. But to make matters worse, anchor Bret Burkhart gave exact descriptions of the vehicles the ICE agents were reportedly using, including specific locations.

It’s now become “a thing” among conservatives to wait for the JD Vance ambush of Sunday morning mainstream political media. Clips of Vance expertly handling hostile questioning from Face the Nation‘s Margaret Brennan circulate around conservative Twitter the way Michael Jordan–era highlight reels used to get played throughout the day on rebroadcasts of Sportscaster. Do we think this would be happening for Nikki Haley? Or for Doug Burgum? Is anyone among the many, many pundits who confidently explained that JD Vance was a disastrous, “net-negative” pick who “will do harm” to the ticket going to revisit his views?
