Then, in 2009, Tony West took over the department’s Civil Division, the division that litigates and settles lawsuits.

Once West arrived, his deputy emailed colleagues asking “can you explain to Tony the best way to allocate some money toward an organization of our choosing?”

Settlements became the vehicle for paying off political allies.

For example, in late 2010, after a Supreme Court victory, DOJ lawyers were on the cusp of winning a decade-long fight against discrimination claims by 91 Hispanic and female farmers.

That’s when West intervened and, as The New York Times put it, “engineered a stunning turnabout.”

DOJ agreed to a $1.33 billion settlement which included thousands of farmers who had never claimed bias.

The deal was made over the “vehement objections” of the department’s career lawyers.

The Times’s investigative report described West’s settlement as a “runaway train, driven by racial politics . . . and law firms that stand to gain more than $130 million in fees.”

The projected settlement size ballooned to over $4.4 billion as additional plaintiffs were added, including Native American farmers.

The government’s statistical expert was appalled: “‘If they had gone to trial, the government would have prevailed . . . It was just a joke. . . . I was so disgusted. It was simply buying the support of the Native Americans.’”

But West did not just bilk taxpayers. He shook down corporations, too.

In a series of bank settlements, his team added increasingly aggressive provisions requiring the institutions to make nearly a billion dollars in mandatory donations to Democrat-supporting activist groups.

Donations were given double credit against required targets, incentivizing these payments over direct relief to victims of the housing crises.

West’s team specifically structured the terms to ensure that they would benefit only their political allies while leaving conservative groups ineligible.

An internal email shows West deputies rewording a settlement’s donation provisions to ensure the bank could not select a “conservative” property rights organization as a recipient.

A 2016 Volkswagen settlement required the company to fund a $2 billion White House electric car initiative that Congress had specifically rejected.

The largesse delighted liberal groups.

An email circulated saying they ought to build a “statue” to West and “bow down to this statue each day after we receive our $200,000+.”

In this legal shakedown, California’s attorney general at the time, Kamala Harris, was an active participant, cosigning the agreements for her state.

I split these out into three separate allegations from the same article.

Seems you've mistaken an Opinion article for news reporting.

Since it's Murdoch's National Enquirer equivalent, that makes it just BULLSHIT.

Not saying there aren't SOME facts, it's the OPINIONS that are BULLSHIT.

Ok, then pay to read it at the NYT: https://www.nytimes.com/2013/04/26/us/farm-loan-bias-claims-often-unsupported-cost-us-millions.html

For the ALLEGED crimes of her BROTHER IN LAW?

You've been drinking early today.

Of course, Trump's list of revenge "crimes" and "criminals" is long, so you might be right, since SCOTUS ruled that he can order the AG to prosecute ANYONE for sham crimes. 🤮

U.S. Opens Spigot After Farmers Claim Discrimination

In the winter of 2010, after a decade of defending the government against bias claims by Hispanic and female farmers, Justice Department lawyers seemed to have victory within their grasp.

Ever since the Clinton administration agreed in 1999 to make $50,000 payments to thousands of black farmers, the Hispanics and women had been clamoring in courtrooms and in Congress for the same deal. They argued, as the African-Americans had, that biased federal loan officers had systematically thwarted their attempts to borrow money to farm.

But a succession of courts — and finally the Supreme Court — had rebuffed their pleas. Instead of an army of potential claimants, the government faced just 91 plaintiffs. Those cases, the government lawyers figured, could be dispatched at limited cost.

None of the OPINION from NYP

I heard a rumour from a complete random stranger that her cousin’s neighbour’s mailman’s sister’s former roommate’s boyfriend had an overdue library book.

That's a lie of course, and you seem to be excusing his assassination attempts.  You've lost any right to claim anyone ELSE is trying to steal democracy.

His Sutra is still at the cleaners.  That's why he's barking like a little dogma.
