3 The workers of the Ministry of Justice are divorced to add to the layout of the layoff in the “Shiites” workforce

This year hundreds of employees in Ministry of Justice Ownership Fire has been launched. Sometimes, because they collide with the Trump administration, and at other times, for reasons they do not know.

These departures publish fear through the workforce and the conversion of the Ministry of Justice. The Ministry of Justice has vast powers and responsibility for everything from national security to civil rights and general corruption, which makes it necessary for Americans who may not even realize their role in their daily lives.

"The Public Prosecution, the Criminal Authority, and the Montelier Authority of our Government are so important that we need to pay an additional interest in what is happening in our Ministry of Justice," Max Stir, head of public service partnership, a non -party group dedicated to a better government and a stronger democracy.

Changes occur to people working in the Ministry of Justice every day, and they are often far from the government center in Washington, DC

July 17 was a typical day at the ILA Deiss office. The immigration judge has long heard two cases in the morning before taking a short break to check her email.

"An email said – I think the address was “finished”, “" Watch.

She was expelled, without prior notice, from her job since 2017. The email said she was leaving her. But it did not say the reason.

"To be on the right track to solve a thousand cases this year and the absence of any bad reviews, and I have excellent reviews only for years, years and years, I was completely blind to this," Watch.

She referred to the statistics of the dashboard for immigration judges, which she showed that she was more productive and efficient in her trial in San Francisco. (NPR could not independently verify these statistics.)

Dis, a former legal writer and a federal claimant, was only three months ago from 25 years of federal service, when her pension and other benefits would be received.

"I only worked in the federal government, so I am not a controversial person," She added.

Now, she is trying to find out if she and her daughter still have health insurance and how she can be provided for unemployment.

Immigration courts are part of the Ministry of Justice. Deiss is one of more than 200 professional civil employees in the administration losing their jobs this year, according to Justice connectionA group that helps the current and former Ministry of Justice employees.

STIER, from the public service partnership, said it’s more concerned about what is happening in Doj more than anywhere in the government.

"The Ministry of Justice is an exceptional institution that has provided a lot of good for our society and stops rocks at the present time." Stier said.

Iceblock founder’s wife has been stopped

One day after Ila Deiss lost its function in San Francisco, the ax fell to Caroline Vincent in Austin, Texas.

"One hundred percent enjoyed this job," Fenstein said. "I will do it for the rest of my career if I have a choice."

Feinstein is a forensic accountant who worked on the American guardian program, and it is another part of the Ministry of Justice. It helped fraud and abuse use in the bankruptcy system.

For seven years, Financhetten says she had great performance reviews.

"As much as I realized that the perception of my work has not changed in the program," Fenstein said.

What has changed is that her husband has developed an application called Iceblock – to track the movement of immigration agents in American societies.

The application got a lot of attention this summer. People posted on social media about her husband, and ultimately from her.

Then came attention from the right-media characters with relations with leaders inside the White House and the Ministry of Justice-including that "Tsar border" Tom Human The Public Prosecutor Pam Bondi.

"The only problem that I realized was the pressure from Laura Lummer to Tom Human and Bam Bondi," Fenstein said.

She said her dismissal leaves a large part of Texas without references to bankruptcy issues.

"Who is the administration that it stipulates that it wants to compete and not a waste, how is the only auditor of a large part of Texas’s efficiency?" I asked.

The Ministry of Justice said that Financhetten has an interest in a company that carries intellectual property of the application that her husband has developed. Financhetten said that she only has a minority stake in that company because she needs to participate to make decisions if something happens to him.

"Iceblock is an application used by illegal foreigners to evade capture while endangering the life of ICE officers by revealing their location," A spokeswoman for the Ministry of Justice, Natalie, said in Al -Masar. "This Ministry of Justice will not tolerate threats against law enforcement or law enforcement employees."

The Trump administration cited the authority of President 2 under the constitution for the refusal of both Vincenin and Deis to cross the laws of civil service and other policies in force for decades.

The lawyer of the Ministry of Justice felt as if it were a “punching bag” in court

For the people who have worked in the Ministry of Justice over the years, the experience of a former lawyer is high.

In the last afternoon, Erez Revini separated a pile of prizes and the bending that he received for more than 15 years within the Ministry of Justice.

During the first Trump administration, Reuveni successfully defended the president’s travel ban from the majority of Islamic countries.

"As I describe it for novice lawyers, it may have been the best and worst professional experience in my life, given our work around the clock," He said.

Like thousands of other professional lawyers in the Ministry of Justice, follow the reins of his presidents.

"Being a government lawyer, you do not choose who is the president and does not choose the policies that you want to defend and do not do, and which you do not do," Reuveni said. "The job is to defend the agenda, for me the immigration agenda – policies and priorities of any certain responsible administration."

But shortly after his promotion by the Trump administration this year, Reuveni was expelled after he told a federal judge that a migrant was transferred to El Salvador by mistake.

Ruvenini said that his boss told him that the White House wanted to know why he did not say that the immigrant, Kilmar Abrago Garcia, was a terrorist.

"Carel lawyers must go to court," Reuveni said. "”Where is the evidence?” The judges say, “Where is the evidence?” We have no evidence because there is no evidence."

It is a pattern that Reuveni said it is happening through the Ministry of Justice this year.

"It is just the position of civil service staff in this position only, and sometimes it looks like fools in front of the courts," He said. "And why do you register to do this, given that you are treated as a perforated bag and with these people? They do not care about the ways of your livelihood or your reputation."

A lawyer detonates a whistle in the immigration case

Reuveni has taken a rare step in submitting the complaints of the violations. In this deposit, he said that the political appointments in the Ministry of Justice have gone astray on immigration cases, to ensure that people are quickly deported.

"This was a bowel punch to see that the political leadership responsible for the Ministry of Justice did not care a little right to the courts and that they only have one goal: put these people on planes, and get them out of the country as soon as possible, as soon as possible," He said.

Reuveni highlighted a meeting in mid-March-where the Ministry of Justice official said at that time Emile Bouv said they should think of saying "And you" To the courts if the judges try to prevent that deportation.

Bove denied informing anyone in the Ministry of Justice to challenge court orders. It ended with an upgrade – on Tuesday, the Senate voted to confirm it as the judge of the Federal Appeal Court.

Bondi, the Public Prosecutor, called Reuveni "Employed employee" And a leak of false claims and seeks to get five minutes of fame.

His lawyer Dana Gold, director of the invitation and strategy in the government accountability project, said that it took months, a team of employment lawyer and three separate ethics lawyers to formulate the complaints of the violations in Ryuphini. She said he has the right to bomb a whistle on violations of the law and the violations of the authority.

Reuveni said every day that he might face revenge by the Ministry of Justice. But he said that he decided to announce his concerns because the Ministry of Justice had changed a lot within weeks.

"My detection is just one small piece of it," He said. "It is only three weeks in my life. But there are many other stories and many other people who have similar experiences."

By moving forward and speaking, Reuveni said, others also hope in the Ministry of Justice.

"Because one voice, this is one thing, fine; Two vote, this is better; But the choir? It is difficult to ignore it."
