Holder Reminds DOJ Employees Not to Solicit Prostitutes

Attorney General Eric Holder sent out a memo to Justice Department employees today reminding them, in case they werent already aware, that they shouldnt be soliciting prostitutes.

Yes, apparently they needed to be reminded of this.

In the memo, obtained by The Washington Post, Holder actually has to explain that DOJ employees soliciting prostitutes goes against what the department stands for, because 1) it invites extortion, blackmail, and leaks of sensitive or classified information, and 2) it undermines the Departments efforts to eradicate the scourge of human trafficking.

And so, Holder reminds every single DOJ employee that it is not okay:

This rule applies at all times during an individuals employment, including while off duty or on personal leave, and applies regardless of whether the activity is legal or tolerated in a particular jurisdiction, foreign or domestic.

So that happened.

Holder's Friday memo to DOJ staff: Don't hire prostitutes

Attorney General Eric Holder had a friendly reminder for Justice Department employees before the weekend: dont solicit prostitutes.

In a letter released to all department staff on Friday, Holder wrote that he want[ed] to reiterate to all Department personnel, including attorneys and law enforcement officers, that they are prohibited from soliciting, procuring, or accepting commercial sex.

Holder wrote that, despite prostitution being legal in parts of Nevada and abroad, department employees are expected to refrain, not simply because it invites extortion, blackmail, and leaks of sensitive or classified information, but also because it undermines the Departments efforts to eradicate the scourge of human trafficking.

The letter follows a report from the DOJs internal oversight office released last month that contains allegations of sexual misconduct at a number of agencies within the Department of Justice.

The report contained specific allegations that ten agents within the Drug Enforcement Agency hired sex workers overseas for parties at an agents quarters, leased for him by the U.S. government. According to the Washington Post, these parties took place in Colombia.

Also included in the report are accusations from Colombian officials of DEA agents frequent[ing] a brothel and receiving money, gifts, and weapons from drug cartel members.

Seven of the ten agents accused of attending the parties admitted to their involvement, and the DEA imposed penalties of between two and ten-day suspensions.

As an excuse for his actions, one DEA agent told investigators that prostitution is considered a part of the local culture Holder dismissed this line of reasoning outright in his letter.

Letter: Black is not white and white is not black

I am writing in response to a letter that stated that Eric Holder is the cause of the racist problem in Ferguson, Mo., that led to the street violence after the death of Michael Brown. The quote I am responding to was The purpose of this letter. is to show where the true racism started and where it continues with the office of the Attorney General Eric Holder.

As the story of the long term racist behavior in Ferguson unfolds including the harassment of the African American community for the smallest of infractions including jay walking and fining them excessively, even jailing them when they could not pay as little at $100 racism that was perpetuated by the collusion of Judge Ronald Brockmeyer, the clerk of the court, the chief of police, and some police officers and who knows how many others, it becomes painfully clear that there was a long term racist problem of gargantuan proportions in that town. Fortunately, that judge has been dismissed, two police officers fired, the clerk of the court fired, and the chief of police has resigned. That is for starters.

These changes have come about as a result of the careful investigation of the department of justice under the direction of Eric Holder who brought the dreadful size of the problem to light.

How anyone could see him as the cause of the problem in Ferguson instead of the direly needed solution, is beyond me. People sometimes want to make political capital by saying black is white and white is black.

The facts however speak for themselves. Eric Holder is to be commended for his prompt action in this matter. No way is he the cause of the problem.

When any community is so out of control that it is literally robbing its minority citizens in order to support its budget with fines, there is something that needs to be corrected. Thank God there are still decent public servants like Eric Holder that can point out the truth and insist upon positive change.
