This is what happens when you hire commie-Dems to work in the fed. prosecutor’s office. You young fellows, instead of whining about missing your latest federal stipend outta check out this bs and write about it instead of waiting on some God-fearing conservative newspaper to bring you the latest news of librul, statist offenses against liberty!
