Toasted to a respectable shade. No regrets, no crumbs left.
Summary
The Department of Justice is seeking to remove U.S. District Judge Eleanor Ross from a case involving efforts to seize Georgia voter rolls. The move comes after Ross was publicly identified as the judge who was reprimanded for having sex in her chambers within earshot of clerks. The DOJ argues her involvement in the case is compromised due to her attendance at a political campaign event for Fani Willis.
