Trump's DOJ Purge: Wrongful Termination of Attorneys From the Department of Justice - Glenn Kirschner
It was plain to all when Donald Trump populated the "leadership" of the Department of Justice with his former impeachment and criminal defense attorneys, that the rule of law was at risk. Now, that has become a horrific reality, with Trump's henchmen wrongfully firing honest, ethical public servants from the DOJ when they insist on abiding by the rule of law rather than doing what Trump demands.
One such public servant is Liz Oyer, the former Head of the Office of the Pardon Attorney at the DOJ.
Liz joins Justice Matters, One On One, to share her recent experience of being summarily fired for standing for the rule of law and faithfully serving the American people rather than doing the wrong thing at Trump's insistence.
We also discuss her ten years working as a federal public defender before becoming Pardon Attorney. - Glenn Kirschner - 04/26/2025.
