Editor, Daily News:
Having contracted a serious case of "outrage fatigue," I have been disabled from letter-writing for some time now.
However, the news of the Supreme Court trimming "whistle-blower" rights is the last straw!
If wrongdoing or misconduct by government cannot be cited by government employees, who are the primary persons able to witness such deeds firsthand, then the government is completely immune to all accountability. It can do no wrong! There is no recourse!
Until now, routine intimidation of employees has stifled feedback Those who have dared to speak truth to power have been demonized and fired. From here onward, it's official: it's see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil!
The politicization of the Supreme Court has come to roost. Justice Samuel Alito has cast the deciding vote. Where is Justice Sandra O'Connor when we need her?
Welcome, "1984"!
