A former federal prosecutor and veteran ethics officer at the Department of Justice left her job in June because she said it felt hypocritical to ask companies to comply with rules that Donald Trump and his administration are evading himself. Hui Chen had served in the agency's Fraud Section of the Criminal Division for more than a year and a half, but she outlined her reasons for leaving in a LinkedIn post last week.

Seems Chen wasn't impressed with Trump's firing of James Comey among many, many other things she sees as absolutely bogus about his administration. And somehow Jeff Sessions' leadership at the department wasn’t inspiring confidence either.
From a personal standpoint, Chen added that she would make it her "personal mission" going forward to hold elected representatives to account.
I believe it has never been more important for every individual to speak and act on their conscience and belief.
