Emily Murphy is damaging the country for no defensible reason lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2020/11/emily-…
This CNN story belongs in the The Museum of Both Sides Do It: cnn.com/2020/11/18/pol…
The piece repeatedly juxtaposes Murphy engaging in objectively indefensible conduct that is doing considerable damage to the public interest while quoting people who testify to her Great Personal Integritude 
Citing 2000 as a precedent is laughable. Unlike in 2000, there is no actual uncertainty about the outcome. There is just a Republican effort to de-legitimize the election and handicap Biden, and Emily Murphy is one of the most important actors in this ratfucking op.
And towards the end of the piece, we are reminded that Murphy played a major role in changing the location of the new FBI building so Donald Trump could line his own pockets! Partisan hack is as partisan hack does.
Perhaps the most telling thing -- you will remember this from the James Comey saga -- is the implicit claim that "you will be criticized by Republicans if you do the right thing" is a good reason not to do it. It's not!
"But what about all the times she DIDN'T severely damage the public interest by being Donald Trump's boot polisher?"
