SO MUCH PANIC

It is deeply heartening to see DOJ public servants not cower in the face of bullying by donald trump.
Except for Sen. Romney, Republicans in Congress should be shamed & voted out of office because of their cowardice & support for trump’s corruption.

President Trump is withdrawing his nomination for former U.S. attorney for D.C. Jessie Liu to serve as the Treasury Department's undersecretary for terrorism and financial crimes, a top position overseeing economic sanctions, according to two sources with direct knowledge.
The big picture: Liu was confirmed in September 2017 to lead the largest U.S. attorney's office in the country, overseeing a number of politically charged investigations that included the case against Trump associates Roger Stone, Paul Manafort and other spinoffs from the Mueller investigation.
Liu stepped down from the U.S. attorney's office after Trump announced his intention to nominate her to the Treasury position in December 2019.
She was replaced by Timothy Shea, who is currently serving on an interim basis.

Are these federal charges?
A federal indictment is also called a 'TRUE BILL'

To the career men and women of DOJ, you are both the backbone and the heart of the Department. Your noble dedication to the rule of law is the foundation of our republic.
