A few weeks ago we learned of More Politicalization of the DoJ. As the Washington Post said about it, "Senior Justice Department officials broke civil service laws by rejecting scores of young applicants who had links to Democrats or liberal organizations, according to a biting report issued yesterday."
I haven't heard about any other consequences of these actions, until today, Crew Files Bar Complaints Against Former Justice Dept. Officials Elston And McDonald. "The Rules of Professional Conduct prohibit attorneys from engaging in conduct involving dishonesty and conduct that “seriously interferes with the administration of justice.” By illegally taking political and ideological affiliations into account in screening applicants for career DOJ position, Mr. Elston and Ms. McDonald may have violated bar rules could be subject to discipline."
If Congress doesn't do anything about this administration breaking laws, I'm glad some other organization is.
