Amid a significant wave of firings, resignations, and retirements from the Justice Department, former officials are sharing farewell messages that express concerns over a toxic work environment and threats to democracy. Justice Connection, a group of ex-employees, has compiled these letters, which reflect the fears of over 5,000 ousted staff, including notable figures like Maurene Comey and Michael Romano. Their messages warn of the erosion of federal norms and emphasize the importance of protecting the rule of law. The Justice Department has declined to comment on the situation or the messages.
