What do we know about her relationship with Texas Sen. Ted Cruz?The Republican senator congratulated his “friend†Brand on Twitter when she was confirmed as associate attorney general, remarking that “she will do a great job.†FEC records also show that Brand donated to Cruz’s presidential campaign.
will become the global governance director at Walmart, the company’s top legal position, according to people briefed on her move. She has held politically appointed positions in the past three presidential administrations.
The zerohedge article linked above shows her to be a good Conservative that they said the Dems would soon be calling her a Russian Spy to get her recused. Her husband is Cohn. Another good guy.Anybody know why she stepped down?
She helped lead the department’s effort to extend a law that authorizes the National Security Agency’s warrantless surveillance program.In an op-ed in The Washington Post last year, Ms. Brand argued that the law “has been valuable and effective in protecting the nation’s security†and that law enforcement officers would be “at risk†without it. Congress voted to extend that law, Section 702 of the FISA Amendments Act, last month.

Wallace on “Special Report†said she had no plans to leave but was approached by a Fortune 500 company that offered her a “Dream Jobâ€. The slimes says Walmart.
So why would Wal-Mart all of a sudden offer her such a position in these circumstances?
Maybe the position just became available.And why would any sane person want to be anywhere near the corrupt cesspool DOJ these days, particularly when it's leader is apparently burying his head in the sand?
I thought the Nunes Memo was a nothingburger? A hell of a lot of top brass is running for the exists since it was released.
Another DOJ official steps down, obviously the rats are running scared. ;p
