Not particularly impressed with Lisa Page...

She doesn't deserve what the RW assholes are doing to her, but she sounds a lot like Comey to me.

Significant that Page is going public - Rachel is a loud kickoff.

“Impressing” people is not the point. Not letting that asshole smear her and lie about her and imitate her having sex while the hyenas laugh is the point.

There was no excuse for the way her own office betrayed her. She's obviously smart, articulate, and we are robbed of another talented public servant with her loss. That said, her support for Comey's 2016 Clinton letter obviously stemmed from some sort of institutional loyalty and left me completely furious with her.

Still sympathetic about how she was treated, hope she wins her lawsuit, but ugh.

a straight shooter who was trying do do her job impartially but who was unfairly trashed by Trump and betrayed by the DoJ, and was particularly targeted as a woman (like what they tried to do to Marie Yovanovitch). She was very credible and I’m glad she’s suing the DoJ for the way they treated her.
