Don't Fink On the Boss

Taylor Johnson, a senior investigator for the Department of Homeland Security Investigations Division (DHS) found that out the hard way when she uncovered a program that represented corruption within the agency. Apparently, she was only supposed to “investigate” things happening OUTSIDE DHS. When she went to her boss, did they compliment her and act on her findings? Yup. They sure did (No compliment). They took her job away without even the honor of being fired. They transferred her to job that amounted to “being in purgatory” so she couldn't even get a decent job. They took her gun and company car away, and told a social worker trying to verify her employment that she was “no longer with them, due to criminal actions.” They neglected to say the “criminal actions” were THEIRS, not hers. Then CPS got involved, and she very nearly lost her child. They not only took her work gun away, they told her she could no longer own or carry a gun, period: a clear constitutional violation. This is how DHS handles whistleblowers. (The Right to Bear)
