Boy that's a tough break.
And that's not just me saying that. I just got an email from a J6 protester who was kept in solitary confinement for 180 days pre-trial. He says, "Boy, that's a tough break."
A Department of Justice staffer claims she was abruptly fired after it emerged that her husband was the brains behind a controversial anti-ICE app that warns users when the feds are closing in.
Carolyn Feinstein, who worked as a DOJ forensic accountant in Austin, Texas, alleges she was terminated last Friday as "retribution" for her spouse's radical alert system, in which she has minority shares.
"This was retribution. I was fired because of the actions, or activism, of my husband," Feinstein told the Daily Beast on Monday.
Feinstein's tech husband, Joshua Aaron, recently sparked outrage after it emerged he'd created the ICEBlock app, which alerts users if Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents have been spotted within a five-mile radius of them.
President Trump's border czar Tom Homan and ICE Acting Director Tom Lyon quickly called on the DOJ to investigate after Feinstein's hubby went on CNN last month to advertise the app -- sparking immediate backlash.
Feinstein claims she informed the DOJ of her ties to the app creator after he allegedly started receiving death threats.
"Since we live in the same house, I thought it was pertinent to contact my employer, the DOJ, to notify them of death threats that were coming in and just in case I needed to be out of the office, so they would be prepared," she said.
So this snowflake was using the app as an excuse to start skiving off from work. Perfect.
A week later, Feinstein said, the Office of the US Trustee started asking questions about the app.
Feinstein admitted she has minority shares in All U Chart, Inc., which hold the IP address for the app.
Oh so it's not just that her husband created the app -- she's a co-owner.
Weird how every leftist makes you fight for every single drop of truth.
...
A DOJ spokesperson said it had been probing Feinstein's connection to the app for "several weeks" after it emerged she had interests in the company.
...
Feinstein, for her part, insisted that her role at the DOJ was "unbiased."
"It is insulting to me because I dedicated myself and my career to serving the people of the United States, and now the DOJ is claiming I was attempting to harm some of them. And that's not true," she said.
Nah, not true at all.
Now some of you may be wondering if her husband is Antifa.
Well, he identifies as "Proud #Antifa" online.
This is like a CIA officer being married to a card-carrying communist who makes frequent trips to the Soviet Union.
And then whining that it's just not fair to punish her just because her husband is clandestinely meeting with the KGB.
And on top of that: According to the DOJ, she wasn't fired just being married to a "Proud #Antifa" violent revolutionary trying to get feds killed.
No, she was fired for lying about it during an official inquiry into the matter.
According to the Notice of Removal from Federal Service memorandum transmitted to Feinstein that was shared by the Beast, "Pursuant to Article II of the United States Constitution and the laws of the United States and based on your lack of candor during an internal inquiry, your employment with the Department of Justice is hereby terminated, and you are removed from federal service effective immediately."
Prior to the termination, backlash over the ICEBlock app included reporting from CNN that the Trump administration was considering prosecution against the network for obstructing justice. As Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem put it, "We're working with the Department of Justice to see if we can prosecute them for that, because what they're doing is actively encouraging people to avoid law enforcement activities -- operations."
While Aaron -- who reportedly self-identifies on social media as "Proud #Antifa" and in the past has contended, "Once again we should all be #antifa" -- appeared on CNN, the X account Sippi Cup was credited as the first to determine that a DOJ employee was romantically involved with the app creator, a point that was later updated to highlight the pair are married.
Apparently he goes by "Joshua Aaron" online, rather than Joshua Aaron Feinstein, which would give a clue that he's married to the DOJ employee Carolyn Feinstein.
Did he drop his last name to help his wife evade detection? I don't know. We'll see.
The Proud Antifa couple:
Here's "Joshua Aaron" bragging about his ICE-hunting app on MSNBC, and bragging that he's not afraid of retaliation by Trump.
He says "go ahead, come after me."
I guess he thought that dropping his last name in media hits would protected his gross wife.
By the way he claims that "college students [are] being disappeared for their political beliefs."
He looks and sounds like he eats dick by the bushelfull.
