DOJ seeks social media users who 'support Trump' in desperate new hiring spree

Source: Raw Story

The DOJ is seeking to hire specifically pro-Trump prosecutors, and is turning to social media to accomplish that controversial task.

Chad Mizelle, who previously served as the chief of staff to the Department of Justice under Attorney General Pam Bondi and general counsel at the Department of Homeland Security in the first Trump administration, was recently left tongue-tied by CNN's Jake Tapper.

Days later, Saturday, he took to social media to encourage people to "DM" him to apply to become a pro-Trump prosecutor.

The ex-official said, "If you are a lawyer, are interested in being an AUSA, and support President Trump and anti-crime agenda, DM me." He added, "We need good prosecutors. And DOJ is hiring across the country. Now is your chance to join the mission and do good for our country."

You can only be one or the other, or neither, but not both.

They said Obama and Biden created a liberal deep state. They were lying. Every accusation is a confession with Faux News and the MAGAtsphere.

That’s glasses that are half-empty.

Half-full is when the first MAGAt incarceration unleashes an unstoppable wave of vermin scurrying back into the cracks of civilized society like roaches when a light is turned on.

A guy can dream, can’t he?
