It seems like they are trying to Weaponized the DOJ.

From the Attorney General and it is true, this was not sent to parents it was basically interdepartmental. It was a DOJ  prosecutor memo.  But….

Unless the congressman lied, he read the phrase, annoying phone calls. The AG deflected and started talking about intimidation which is a threat and we all understand. But apparently the memo said annoying. Annoying just means something I don’t like. If a school board member gets an annoying phone call, is the DOJ even going to contemplate prosecution?

Then it goes on to emotional distress. Again, that is like annoying. A person disagrees with me so that causes me stress. Federal crime? He talked bad about me on Facebook, indict him! 

There is too much to take apart but the AG says, we are concerned about violence and the threat of violence. Sure, we all agree about that. If that is all this was about, do they really need an internal memo to explain to professional prosecutors/lawyers what a threat or what an act of violence is?

I was a police supervisor for 20 years. Maybe I’m wrong but I’ve never felt the need to tell one of my patrol officers that if someone shoots someone or threatens to kill them, that is a crime. Apparently in the DOJ at some level, feels the need to remind these professionals of what the law is.

I understand that the AG might not have personally seen that memo. It still concerns me that some prosecutor in the DOJ felt it needed to be written after getting complaints from the school board. The AG has now found out about this memo which he apparently disagrees with it by saying he did not know about it, deflecting it to one of his subordinates.  Now that he knows what his prosecutors are doing, I wonder if he is going to take action against them.

Don’t hold your breath…

    • What news station do you watch?…..never mind.    What age are the children you take care of. Refugees from where? Are they in a hospital? Now children compared to criminals…..geeeez. The mayor of Denver and a few governors, including Newsom, have said they will not turn over incarcerated criminals to ICE. This is a felony. They are harboring criminals and fugitives. Gee, I’m so glad you want criminals protected. Anyone who crossed illegally into our country is a criminal. Happy Holidays to you and yours.
    • Sorry sir on my miss count. I was in hurry
    • Are they offering refuge to criminals? Or is it a Trump talking point? Refugees are people who leave their country due to unwarranted prosecution. I actually take care of 2 refugee kids who have complex medical needs   No, refugees are not criminals, and the assumption that they are more likely to be criminals than the general population is incorrect:                                                                                          Research shows immigrants commit crimes at lower rates Immigrants in the United States commit crimes at lower rates than the U.S.-born population, including unauthorized immigrants. This is true across immigrant groups.                  Immigration doesn't raise crime rates Immigrants don't raise crime rates in the communities where they settle. In fact, some studies suggest that immigration can lower crime rates, especially violent crime.                  Anti-immigration politicians have spread a myth Anti-immigration politicians have repeatedly tried to link immigrants to crime, but research shows this is a myth.                  Refugees don't cause crime in Turkey A study found that refugees don't have a causal effect on crime rates in Turkey. In fact, the study found that refugees may have a negative effect on crime rates per capita. 
    • I think it's actually the first time ever to get past the second round. Some older folks might try to tell you about Scott High but I wasn't here when that school was around 😆
