Duckworth’s taxpayer-funded legal team is currently in a case meeting conference with Union County Judge Mark Boie.
The latest twist in the ongoing whistleblower retaliation trial follows a devastating Chicago Tribune report in which Duckworth admits that the VA director whom she decided to reward with two acceptable evaluations "wasn’t a very good manager." And by "wasn’t a very good manager," Duckworth presumably means those times she manipulated wait lists under her watch.
Duckworth, therefore, protected the employee responsible for wait list problems and punished the employees responsible for blowing the whistle on veteran abuse.
After she attempted to waste tens of thousands of taxpayer dollars trying to settle with the whistleblowers she allegedly retaliated against, Tammy Duckworth must finally be held accountable for her failed leadership.
