Il rapporto della giustizia incolpa l'uso illegale della politica nell'assumere i procuratori federali, giudici
Lunedì 28 luglio 2008 Discuta questo rapporto nelle tribune di RINF > STORIA GREZZA | Un nuovo rapporto di reparto della giustizia conclude che la politica ha influenzato illegalmente assumere dei procuratori di carriera e dei giudici di immigrazione ed in gran parte addossa la colpa sugli aiutanti superiori all'ex Attorney General Alberto Gonzales. La relazione del lunedì sceglie il collegamento precedente della Casa Bianca del reparto, Monica Goodling, per la violazione della politica federale di reparto della giustizia e di legge discriminando contro i candidati di lavoro che non erano loyalists repubblicani o conservatori. Il reparto completo della giustizia delle 146 pagine segnali è disponibile qui (.pdf) Non è improprio considerare le affiliazioni politiche o ideologiche nel prendere le decisioni assumenti per le posizioni politiche. Tuttavia, sia la politica di reparto che la legge federale proibiscono la distinzione nell'assumere per le posizioni di carriera in base alle affiliazioni politiche. La nostra ricerca ha trovato che Goodling ha sottoposto impropriamente i candidati per determinate posizioni di carriera allo stesso valutazione che politicamente basata ha usato sui candidati per le posizioni politiche, in violazione di legge e la politica federali di reparto. Il rapporto non indica se Goodling o l'ex capo del personale del Gonzales Kyle Sampson potrebbe affrontare qualunque spese. Nessun di quelli addetti al discriminatorio assumendo ancora il lavoro alla giustizia, significante eviteranno tutte le pene di reparto. Il presidente giudiziario John Conyers del comitato della Camera ha detto che sta dibattendo se archiviare le spese di perjury contro i rapporti' ha implicato i funzionari, che possono stare al congresso durante le indagini sul politicization del reparto della giustizia. “L'odierno rapporto descrive le violazioni sistematiche del `' di legge federale da parecchi ex capi del reparto di giustizia,„ Conyers detto nelle notizie si libera. “Apparentemente, la selezione politica era così dominante che persino i candidati repubblicani qualificati sono stati rifiutati dalle posizioni di reparto perché erano repubblicano del `non abbastanza' per Monica Goodling ed altri. Il rapporto inoltre fa chiaramente che il costo alla nostra nazione di questi crimini apparenti era severo, poichè gli individui qualificati sono stati rifiutati per le posizioni chiave nella lotta contro terrorismo ed altri lavori critici di reparto per nessun motivo tranne il whim politico. Il rapporto inoltre indica che Monica Goodling, Kyle Sampson e Alberto Gonzales possono stare al congresso circa questi argomenti. Ho diretto il mio personale rivedere molto attentamente questa materia e considerare se un rinvio criminale per perjury è necessario.„ Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy used the report to slam the White House. “Rather than strengthening our national security, the Department of Justice appears to have bent to the political will of the administration,” the Vermont Democrat said in a release sent to reporters Monday morning. “Further, the report reveals that the ‘principal source’ for politically vetted candidates considered for important positions as immigration judges was the White House– a clear indication of the untoward political influence of the Bush administration on traditionally non-political appointments.” Justice investigators said that Goodling, at least, may lose her license to practice law as a result of the findings. The report said Gonzales was largely unaware of the hiring decisions by two of his most trusted aides. It also said his aides’ decisions weeded out Democrats and that Goodling also rejected at least one job applicant who was a lesbian. Leahy accused the political influence of stretching higher into the administration and he suggested top officials were simply trying to pin the blame on underlings. “Like some in the administration who would place blame for the actions at Abu Ghraib solely onto the shoulders of a few bad apples, the Attorney General has tried to dismiss the Inspector General’s first report on politicization issued last month as documenting the actions of just a few bad apples,” Leahy said. “But it was obvious from that first report, and becomes more so with this second joint IG/OPR report, that the problems of politicization at the Department are rooted deeper than that. In this report, we once again see that the Bush administration has allowed politics to affect and infect the nation’s chief law enforcement agency’s priorities.” The report marks the culmination of a yearlong investigation by Justice’s Office of Inspector General and Office of Professional Responsibility into whether Republican politics were driving hiring polices at the nation’s premier law enforcement agency that is expected to be above partisan politics. The department’s inspector general is scheduled to testify to the Senate Judiciary Committee Wednesday. The investigation is one of several that examine accusations of White House political meddling within the Justice Department. Those accusations were initially driven by the firings of nine U.S. attorneys in late 2006 and culminated with Gonzales’ resignation under fire as attorney general last September. The man who replaced Gonzales, Attorney General Michael Mukasey, said he is “of course disturbed” by the findings. “I have said many times, both to members of the public and to department employees, it is neither permissible nor acceptable to consider political affiliations in the hiring of career department employees,” Mukasey said in a statement shortly after the report was released Monday morning. “And I have acted, and will continue to act, to ensure that my words are translated into reality so that the conduct described in this report does not occur again at the department.” With wire reports Discuss this report in the RINF forums > Have Your Say: Justice report faults illegal use of politics in hiring federal prosecutors, judges This entry was posted on Monday, July 28th, 2008 at 7:41 pm and is filed under Political News .
