HOLY SHIT this is incredible. The career census lawyers are going to have to explain to America why they are quitting the case. This judge clearly knows that they are refusing to go forward because they can't ethically represent the administration, and that the government is trying to pull something fraudulent, and she's going to make them witnesses against the administration.
This is a great development for the census case. It's also a great development in general because I think it will put DOJ lawyers on notice that they can't just run and hide when representing this corrupt shit show gets too uncomfortable.
