“A senior Justice Department official, Emil Bove III, told subordinates he was willing to ignore court orders in order to fulfill the president’s aggressive deportation campaign, according to a whistle-blower complaint by a department lawyer who has since been fired.

The account by the dismissed lawyer, Erez Reuveni, paints a disturbing portrait of his final three weeks on the front lines of the Trump administration’s legal efforts to ship immigrants overseas, often with little notice or recourse. In Mr. Reuveni’s telling, Mr. Bove used an expletive as he discussed disregarding court orders, and other top law enforcement officials showed themselves ready to stonewall judges or lie to them to get their way.

Mr. Reuveni’s account, which was reviewed by The New York Times, was filed to lawmakers and the Justice Department inspector general on Tuesday, just one day before Mr. Bove is scheduled to testify before the Senate Judiciary Committee for a nomination to a federal appeals court. Mr. Reuveni was a career lawyer at the Justice Department for nearly 15 years until April, when he appeared in a federal court in Maryland and expressed concern that the administration had mistakenly deported a migrant to a megaprison in El Salvador. Mr. Reuveni was put on administrative leave a day later and ultimately fired.”

On the other side of this, career DOJ are doing their part to keep the government, kicking and screaming, on the side of right.

Oh absolutely. None of this discussion should be taken as a slight on the rank and file at all.

Typical MAGA - lying their asses off, saying F U to people who are following legal process. And lying to a JUDGE? Utterly disgraceful. All the more I wouldn't be surprised if the "human trafficking, MS13" crap about Garcia weren't completely fabricated by scumbags like Bove.

The head of DOJ’s criminal division resigned instead of seeking that indictment. More to come on that I’m sure.

Whoops not the Main Justice criminal division but in the middle district of Tennessee where he was indicted.

Not enough of them are doing as you suggest. Many are walking into court with scurrilous arguments to justify illegal government actions. Immigration judges are being ordered how to rule on asylum claims before them. They are not allowed to be objective and unbiased to follow immigration law as defined pre-February 2025.
