I think resigning in protest does more harm than good in the long run. They just replace you with a loyalist or an incompetent. Don't do their job for them. Make them fire you.

I think there is some benefit to resigning because you can see the DOJ is already suffering in court from sub-par lawyering. Every departure of a competent DOJ lawyer puts even more pressure on the remaining ones and there's only 24 hours in a day.

I suspect 'resigning in protest' is a news media term and that attorneys are resigning because that is what ethics require when confronted with demands to conduct themselves in illegal or improper ways.

> resigning in protest does more harm than good in the long run. They just replace you with a loyalist or an incompetent We’re seeing measurable effects from these resignations. A competent prosecutor could have indicted Comey. They resigned. And Halligan dropped the ball. Same as the other make-up obsessed idiots behind them.

  Indicted Comey?? For what? Getting Trump elected? The only thing I think was questionable that he did was swing an election by choosing to reopen those emails.

    He was actually indicted for "false statements and obstruction in congressional testimony".

      > He was actually indicted Technically, he wasn’t “actually indicted.” The indictment was thrown out on procedural grounds. That means it never actually was.

The fact that so many DOJ employees are now incompetent is working against the fascists. Rumeysa Ozturk is free and living in the US because DOJ employees failed to provide the required documentation to the court to demonstrate that Rubio had cancelled her visa. If you are going to stay at DOJ the only ethical thing would be to be as incompetent as possible. Staying and actually working causes harm.
