An email sent to Liberty University School of Law students over the weekend: [View all]

An email sent to Liberty University School of Law students over the weekend lays out, in refreshingly unvarnished terms, what the administration's hiring pipeline actually looks like. And it's exactly as bad as everyone suspected:

The two most important requirements are you MUST be aligned politically with President Trump and his administration and you must be willing to work hard. Don't be scared off by the transcript requirement. GPA is not a strong factor. If you meet those two requirements, you have a shot.

Scenes from a personalist regime
