SELECTIVE OUTRAGE FROM DOJ

DOJ: Acting Attorney General Boente Issues Guidance to Department on Executive Order


Dana J. Boente, who was appointed this evening to serve as acting Attorney General, tonight issued the following guidance to the men and women of the department:
 On January 30, 2017, Acting Attorney General Sally Q. Yates issued a memorandum barring Department of Justice Attorney’s from presenting arguments in defense of the President’s January 27, 2017, Executive Order entitled “Protecting the Nation from Foreign Terrorist Entry Into the United States.” At approximately 9:00 p.m., I was asked by the President to serve in the capacity of Acting Attorney General. After having dedicated the last thirty-three years of my life to this Department, I am humbled and incredibly honored to serve as Acting Attorney General. Based upon the Office of Legal Counsel’s analysis, which found the Executive Order both lawful on its face and properly drafted, I hereby rescind former Acting Attorney General Sally Q. Yates January 30, 2017, guidance and direct the men and women of the Department of Justice to do our sworn duty and to defend the lawful orders of our President.

Loretta Lynch praises Sally Yates’ ‘unshakeable integrity’

Editorial comment: Of course the former Attorney General sings Yates praises, they were both doing the bidding of Obama, and his affairs while President. Yates got caught doing Obama's bidding, and was canned for doing it. Need I remind you that Obama did the same thing in banning refugees from terrorist infested countries coming here. Neither of these two made a whimper about Obama's restrictions on refugees. Matter in fact they cheered his bans, so what does that tell you? They were selective in their objections. If these two "ladies" were outrage about bans being imposed on refugees, they would go against those edicts from the previous administration who did the same thing.
