Justice Department says it mistakenly emailed link to white nationalist website
https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/justice-department/justice-department-says-it-mistakenly-emailed-link-white-nationalist-website-n1045526?cid=sm_npd_nn_fb_ma&fbclid=IwAR0rOocjaTfmFyD5XQip7-KZPC_ZRDj5mSC1n6X5-zXHnuXjbEfmd6PCsBIThe Justice Department on Thursday said an email sent to immigration court employees this week should not have included a link to a white nationalist website.
The email, which included links to daily stories involving immigration news, included a link to a blog post on VDare, a white nationalist site, Buzzfeed News reported.
The blog post “directly attacks sitting immigration judges with racial and ethnically tinged slurs,” the immigration judges' union complained in a letter to DOJ that was obtained by Buzzfeed. “Publication and dissemination of a white supremacist, anti-Semitic website throughout the EOIR is antithetical to the goals and ideals of the Department of Justice,” the letter said.
NBC News has not independently obtained the letter or the email, but the Justice Department's Executive Office of Immigration Review acknowledged there had been a mistake.
Hey! It could happen to anyone.
