On Monday, Sally Yates, acting Attorney General, directed the Department of Justice to not defend in court Trump's immigration executive order.
The de facto course of action would have been to defend the order as a matter of course, but Yates was so concerned about the intent of the order that she directed lawyers at DoJ to avoid putting up a fight against those who have filed suit against it.
Ms. Yates was summarily fired.
