استقالات جماعية في وزارة العدل الأمريكية

The U.S. Department of Justice is experiencing a severe internal crisis after several senior veteran attorneys were forced to resign, in a move described as a deliberate attempt to exclude independent professional voices. In the early weeks of President Donald Trump's current term, these attorneys were presented with two difficult options: either leave the department permanently or move to a hastily created new unit known as the "Sanctuary Cities Task Force."

According to sources from the Washington Post, the real goal of this group was not to address immigration issues or law enforcement, but to assign secondary, nominal tasks to the attorneys in order to marginalize them and push them to voluntarily leave their positions. This approach has sparked widespread discontent within the department, as many see it as a political endeavor aimed at reshaping the Department of Justice to serve the current administration's agenda, particularly regarding immigration and dealing with cities that refuse to cooperate with federal immigration authorities.

The move has ignited broader debate about the independence of the Department of Justice under Trump, amid warnings that excluding experienced legal professionals will weaken the department's ability to tackle major cases and will entrench political agendas at the expense of the professionalism and neutrality required in an institution that is supposed to uphold the law and the Constitution.
