Astounding how the DoJ was brutally dismantled. And not just that but erosion of decency and civilisation. We’re all dealing with an abnormal tyrant. Glad you are all being so proactive.

It’s as if the US is living under martial law. In U.K. your work should be explained. Some news channels may be open to your experiences.

Thanks for the suggestion, Stasia.

No one with half a brain, or heart, would confuse the current “DOJ” with what it has historically been and all those it has represented. But yes, unfortunately, it will be a long road back. I’m so sorry. 😞

Thanks, Kathy!

That we didn’t realize how vital all of the DOJ departments are/were is so spot on. Just like how we’ve become so complacent regarding our democracy. Thank you for all this information.

Thanks, Sue.

Wow I am actually feeling sorry for lawyers, at least the good ones. We need to make the presidency nothing but a caretaker, a daily manager. With no ability to affect financing what so ever, clear rules on hiring and firing, that can not be politicized. And the means to enforce the rules that congress makes, with teeth, that cannot be avoided. I am glad there are people fighting against the dismantling of the rules that were put in place to make our government run smoothly and fairly. No stupid fascist 2025 stupidity. Thank Stacey Young for me, she is doing a necessary & important job.

The calls coming from inside the DOJ under this administration along with the spurious attacks on DEI across various agencies is one of the worst this country carries on for so long .

The years , the abundance this divisions work is now almost a shell of itself.

I now know the level of stress that has been placed upon so many. I can also understand the reticence of this department/agencies to return to try and rebuild repair the damage brought so far now , into the future.

Representative Summer Lee early on in this administration spoke at a hearing regarding the dismantling of DEI and the displacement of civil servants who would be stripped of any redress (Project 2025 ) . She is now bringing articles of impeachment against Pam Bondi for dereliction of duty.

Now there is a place never done before to file complaints of workplace concerns , outside of the DOJ . It is imperative that we support them .

Just recently I’ve learned though this is not new , that in California alone the CFPB won a lawsuit for targeted discrimination in the workplace and cover up , paying out millions of dollars.

A 16 Trillion Dollar loss in payouts of cases won in court (s) over a period of 20 years , a staggering hit to the GDP alone .

Now it’s being said this country teeters on the brink of insolvency. This is unsustainable. What a drag .

Thank you , Ronda and Justice Connection Network.

Thanks, Paula. All of it has been hard to watch. But they're being challenged in many ways and in many courts and are not doing so well, so that's good. Lots to repair and reform after all of this.

Thank you , Ronda .

I appreciate you sharing , for this was really hard to read.

Not so hard when there is still hope .

Once again, Ronda, a big thank you for the voices that you bring to light. You were right in your observation, I did not realize the vast extent of the DOJ. Very enlightening and necessary, keep these uplifting/informative messages coming. 🙏🏽❤️
