Fired Immigration Whines About Lots Of Stuff In Lawsuit

Always the victim

Fired worker sues government in a case that could upend civil rights laws

Tania Nemer is one of dozens of immigration judges fired by the Trump administration this year.

But a new lawsuit filed in Washington, D.C., suggests what happened to Nemer — and why — has the potential to scramble the federal workforce and upend foundational civil rights laws.

Nemer alleges that despite top performance reviews, she was dismissed from her job because of her gender, her status as a dual citizen of Lebanon and the fact that she once ran for municipal office in Ohio as a Democrat. Those reasons, she says, are all in violation of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the First Amendment.

The government has responded by arguing that the president’s power to oversee the executive branch under Article II of the U.S. Constitution essentially overrides that core civil rights law, Nemer’s attorney said.

They serve at the pleasure of the President of the United States Of America. Said POTUS doesn’t even necessarily need a reason. And, why in the hell is anyone with dual citizenship serving in the federal government, be it Lebanon or Canada? Anyhow, these judges are under the DOJ, and many of them have just ended their 2 year probationary period or in that period, before they are converted to full government employees. Nemer was hired in 2023, and most likely was going soft on illegal aliens, like many Democrat appointed judges.

Nemer filed a formal discrimination complaint with an Equal Employment Opportunity office a month after she was fired. That office dismissed her claims in September, asserting in its decision that Title VII of the Civil Rights Act conflicts with the president’s power to remove federal workers within the executive branch.

(Hindustan Times) Tania Nemer is an Ohio-based attorney and former federal immigration judge. A John Carroll University graduate with a J.D. from Western Michigan University Cooley Law School. She built her career in criminal defense and immigration law, working for Catholic Charities, the International Institute of Akron, and as Of Counsel in private practice.

So, most surely because she was being soft on illegals, based on her previous work

“According to the final agency decision, the President may now fire female federal workers like Ms. Nemer — because of their sex — and the law would have nothing to say about it,” according to the new lawsuit. “According to the final agency decision, the President can now fire federal workers born to immigrant parents with dual citizenship like Ms. Nemer — because of their national origin — and they would have no recourse. And under the same logic, the President can fire federal workers like Ms. Nemer — because of their political activities and affiliations — and the courts would be powerless to act.”

Yeah, political activities and affiliations. Just like always.
