Who was the last Democrat president to actually call the shots? Biden had his handlers in charge along with daddy teleprompter. Had to be slick Billy C, a good buddy of Epstein for a reason.
Thanks, Sputnik.
This is one of the harshest smackdowns I've ever read. And the judge even threw in a little mercy at the end - he went easy on her because of her IQ.
"Ms. Halligan’s response, in which she was joined by both the Attorney General and the Deputy Attorney General, contains a level of vitriol more appropriate for a cable news talk show and falls far beneath the level of advocacy expected from litigants in this Court, particularly the Department of Justice."
"The Court finds it inconceivable that the Department of Justice, which holds a duty to faithfully execute the laws of the United States even those with which it may have disagreement, would repeatedly ignore court orders, while simultaneously prosecuting citizens for breaking the law."
"Ms. Halligan chose none of these legal avenues; instead, she elected to simply ignore valid court orders issued by Judge Currie at the direction of the Chief Judge of the Fourth Circuit. The Court cannot tolerate such obstinance, because doing so would undermine the very essence of the Rule of Law. If the Court were to allow Ms. Halligan and the Department of Justice to pick and choose which orders that they will follow, the same would have to be true for other litigants and our system of justice would crumble."
"The Eastern District of Virginia has long enjoyed the service of experienced prosecutors with unquestioned integrity from both political parties serving as the United States Attorney. Despite coming from different political backgrounds and holding very different ideological views, they all shared an unwavering commitment to the Rule of Law, putting the interests of the citizens of the District before their own personal ambitions, as true public servants do. Unfortunately, it appears that this ethos has come to an end."
"No matter all of her machinations, Ms. Halligan has no legal basis to represent to this Court that she holds the position. And any such representation going forward can only be described as a false statement made in direct defiance of valid court orders. In short, this charade of Ms. Halligan masquerading as the United States Attorney for this District in direct defiance of binding court orders must come to an end."
"The Court recognizes that Ms. Halligan lacks the prosecutorial experience that has long been the norm for those nominated to the position of United States Attorney in this District. Consequently, and in light of her inexperience, the Court grants Ms. Halligan the benefit of the doubt and refrains from referring her for further investigation and disciplinary action regarding her misrepresentations to this Court at this time. However, this Memorandum Order provides notice that, should Ms. Halligan persist in ignoring Judge Currie’s Orders and this Memorandum Order in any matter before the undersigned, the Court will initiate disciplinary proceedings against Ms. Halligan and any other signatory to an offending pleading pursuant to Federal Rule of Disciplinary Enforcement V(A)."

The second quote above is the one that should scare everyone, even the MAGAs. That's the one thing that can and will end the country. And it's happening right now in the current DOJ.
It is the United States’ position that Ms. Halligan was properly appointed as interim United States Attorney — a position the United States has maintained in part based on internal legal advice from the Department of Justice’s Office of Legal Counsel,” Halligan wrote in an 11-page filing.
That Judge Currie dismissed two indictments based on her disagreement with that position does not prevent the United States from otherwise maintaining it.

Typically we cite where we are lifting stuff from, so others can check the accuracy and context. You look like a cheese moof when you fail to cite.
Anyway, what is your point? You recited a quote, then recited a trusim, but then failed to say why they mattered.
“Trump has finally given the world the motivation to do what it should have done on its own decades ago. If Americans think there’s an affordability crisis now, wait until they see what happens to consumer prices and interest rates when the world pulls the rug on the U.S. dollar.”
Reporter: You told Norway's prime minister that you not winning the Nobel peace prize made you feel less obligated to think purely of peace. Trump: I lost a lot of respect for Norway. I believe very strongly that Norway controls the Nobel prize.
It’s not about his ego. It’s not about the Nobel Peace Prize. It’s not about the Mercator projection. It’s not about imperialism. It’s not about resources. It’s not about real estate.
This is what it has always been about, and this is why it was always going to happen. pic.twitter.com/DUu36QAkAk
I should have gotten the Nobel prize for each war...I saved millions and millions of people...and don't let anyone tell you that Norway doesn't control the shots. It's in Norway. Norway controls the shots. It's a joke. They've lost such prestige. That's why I have such respect for Maria doing what she did. She said I don't deserve it- he does.
There is obvious difference in which ICE went about what they did under both administrations. You know that but are being disingenuous, an idiot, or both.
Trump just held a press briefing where he spoke (often) off the cuff for just under 2 hours. He still has incredible stamina and is completely mentally sharp. Could you imagine Biden ever doing this?
President Trump said he believes God is “very proud” of the job he has done as president, pointing to his record on religion, border security and the economy while addressing reporters at the White House on the first anniversary of his second term in office.
“I think God is very proud of the job I’ve done, and that includes for religion,” Trump said, adding that his administration has worked to protect religious groups facing violence.
“We’re protecting a lot of people that are being killed — Christians, Jewish people,” Trump said. “Lots of people are being protected by me that wouldn’t be protected by another type of president.”
“Trump has finally given the world the motivation to do what it should have done on its own decades ago. If Americans think there’s an affordability crisis now, wait until they see what happens to consumer prices and interest rates when the world pulls the rug on the U.S. dollar.”
Yep and the question hanging over the market is whether the US dollar is closer to being dethroned as the primary global reference point for finance and business and central bank reserves. That is already happening with US treasuries. Big trouble is there is a downgrade in our national debt by S&P and Moody's and Fitch. If the baby pedophile in chief leads us down that road there will be no turning back in the short or long term.
It's hard to believe that the market only lost 2% today. That could be a sign that Trump is going to TACO again, but if he doesn’t the markets are likely to go down a lot more. But TACO or not, a lot of the damage has already been done. Allies are going looking at the prospect of decoupling from the US and some of that is already in the works. Trump wants to replace our current trading partners with Russia, the Gulf Oil States, El Salvador and Argentina. China is going to become a much stronger country as a result of all of this.
This is all going to be an albatross on the American economy over the long term, and there is probably no undoing the damage that has already been done. It seems that Trump really does hate the USA and wants to either knowingly or unknowingly make China a great country. He is so dense that he can't realize what damage he is is doing.

The difference is the disease the leftist lunatics now suffer with. it’s the only difference. ICE is in Florida doing the same thing and you would never know it.

I’ve read enough of your drivel here to know that when you refer to someone as a lunatic, you’re just like a pot calling a kettle black.
