We welcome Attorney General Barrs belated acknowledgment that the DOJs law enforcement decisions must be independent of politics; that it is wrong for the President to interfere in specific enforcement matters, either to punish his opponents or to help his friends; and that the Presidents public comments on DOJ matters have gravely damaged the Departments credibility. But Mr. Barrs actions in doing the Presidents personal bidding unfortunately speak louder than his words. Those actions, and the damage they have done to the Department of Justices reputation for integrity and the rule of law, require Mr. Barr to resign. But because we have little expectation he will do so, it falls to the Departments career officials to take appropriate action to uphold their oaths of office and defend nonpartisan, apolitical justice. For these reasons, we support and commend the four career prosecutors who upheld their oaths and stood up for the Departments independence by withdrawing from the Stone case and/or resigning from the Department. Our simple message to them is that we -- and millions of other Americans -- stand with them. And we call on every DOJ employee to follow their heroic example and be prepared to report future abuses to the Inspector General, the Office of Professional Responsibility, and Congress; to refuse to carry out directives that are inconsistent with their oaths of office; to withdraw from cases that involve such directives or other misconduct; and, if necessary, to resign and report publicly -- in a manner consistent with professional ethics -- to the American people the reasons for their resignation. We likewise call on the other branches of government to protect from retaliation those employees who uphold their oaths in the face of unlawful directives. The rule of law and the survival of our Republic demand nothing less. '' 3/3 |

In the 1992, 1996 and 2004 election cycles, exactly half said they were better off. In three separate measures during the 2012 election cycle, an average of 45pc said they were better off.' |
