DOJ chief of staff is actively putting out want ads on twitter.

I was a career prosecutor.  I did support enthusiastically an anticrime agenda.  I could not say in an interview that I support President Trump in particular as opposed to any duely elected President.  I support and defend the Constitution.  I recently got invited back into practice, though not by DOJ.  I declined.  My faculties are fogging.  It is one thing to draft and redraft legislation, quite another to do what I use to do which was litigation.  As Harry Callahan said, a man has got to know his limitations.

More prosecutors leave MSP US Attorney office

>>>

The Minnesota U.S. Attorney’s Office is seeing a wave of resignations following the Department of Justice’s handling of the killings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti.

Eight lawyers are either leaving or have announced their intentions to quit the office, following six other resignations last month. The high turnover is unprecedented, as the office generally doesn’t even have that many resignations in an entire year, the Minneapolis Star-Tribune reports. Now there are fewer than 20 attorneys in the office to handle the state’s federal cases.<<<

The taxpayers already thanked me for my service.  It was called a paycheck.  Thank you for the pay, my family appreciated it.

It’s amazing the intensity maga devoted to a claim then when Trump’s attention changes so do theirs. The MSP US Attorneys & FBi office has been hollowed out worse than any communist could ever hope to achieve.

It's shocking. the Don has completely hobbled the state's ability to prosecute crime, including the fraud he uses as pretext for an invasion. Everything this guy touches turns to shite.

@Engorgeous George, I will also happily buy you several rounds if ever given an opportunity.

>>>The top federal prosecutor in Minnesota says his short-staffed office has been abandoning “pressing and important priorities” to manage the flood of immigration cases stemming from Operation Metro Surge, the Trump administration’s mass deportation push in the Twin Cities.

U.S. Attorney Daniel Rosen, in a little-noticed filing last week with the 8th Circuit Court of Appeals, said his office is buckling under the crushing weight of hundreds of emergency lawsuits filed by immigrants arrested and detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement in recent weeks. He said 427 had been filed in January alone, and that the pace is expected to continue into February.

“To respond to this wave of habeas petitions, this Office has been forced to shift its already limited resources from other pressing and important priorities,” Rosen said in a declaration to the court. “The MN-USAO has cancelled all [civil enforcement] work and any other affirmative priorities and is operating in a reactive mode.”

In a filing accompanying Rosen’s statement, Justice Department attorneys emphasized that the “crushing burden” caused by immigration cases had led U.S. attorneys offices to “shift resources away from other critical priorities, including criminal matters.”

Rosen, a Trump appointee confirmed by the Senate in October 2025, said his team of attorneys handling civil litigation is “down 50%” — a reference to a wave of resignations and departures at the start of Operation Metro Surge — and that those who remain “are appearing daily for hearings on contempt motions.”

“The Court is setting deadlines within hours, including weekends and holidays. Paralegals are continuously working overtime. Lawyers are continuously working overtime,” Rosen lamented, saying the court’s quick ruling is “desperately needed.”

Rosen’s admissions contradict claims by the Department of Homeland Security that the flood of immigration cases filed in federal court has not overtaxed the Justice Department. A spokesperson said Wednesday that the administration is “more than prepared to handle the legal caseload” caused by the mass deportation effort.<<<

The truth of this matter is that the Don, in all his pathetic glory, will ultimately INCREASE crime in the Twin Cities because his illegal occupation has completely crippled the state's prosecutorial ability. THANKS MAGA!

If I ever head back to the Twin Cities, which is certainly conceivable, I will look you up and it would be my pleasure to pry open my wallet to buy you a few rounds.

There are always more attorneys to take the place of those who retire or step down.  We are like cockroaches.  We will scurry out from our hidding places as soon as the lights go down just a bit.  

 

The difficulty with prosecution is not supply of attorneys but tendancies of juries.  Try to find any 6 or 12 who will agree on anything in this day and age.

Your cockroach comparison is very apt, as that is exactly the kind of lawyer the current DOJ is looking for.
