[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, absolutely not. DOJ honors is a really great way to start a legal career. And it’s supposed to be nonpartisan. If he wants to be a do-gooder he can look for a legal aid fellowship and get paid $35k/yr. [/quote]

Do you know anything about what happens at DOJ in Republican administrations? [/quote]

Is there going to be a sea change in bankruptcy, tort, IP, national security …? Sure, civil rights, but that’s a small part of DOJ. [/quote]

You are wrong. Lawyers in other divisions were pressed into working on immigration cases in the Trump years. [/quote]

Ok well, that’s actually helping to clear the immigration backlog. That’s not terrible. Plus it’s not like Obama and Biden had stellar progressive records on immigrant detention and deportation. If you think no immigrants should be detained or deported you probably shouldn’t work for DOJ as a prosecutor or in immigration at all. I’m sure I could have gotten hired as a prosecutor but I never tried because I personally don’t want to send people to jail. This has little to do with the administration but rather working as a prosecutor whenever. [/quote]
