Firings at Justice Department create fear among career lawyers


These dismissals, while unsettling, are the prerogative of the Executive. A new administration demands alignment with its vision of justice. Recall the Articles of Confederation; weakness invites chaos. A strong executive is essential to prevent factionalism and ensure the uniform application of law, even if it causes discomfort.

Fear among lawyers, you say.I say, good.Let them taste the same fear our King inflicted.This smacks of tyranny, another attempt to silence dissent and bend justice to the whims of power.Are we to stand idly by while our liberties are pruned like overgrown hedges, until nothing remains.
