You might remember that Talking Points Memo broke the story that eventually came to be known as the US Attorneys firing scandal.
Yes, yes. Brush away the cobwebs. I know there have been so many other jaw-droppers since that it's hard to keep them all in mind.
But elephants never forget, right?
In what has to be seen as the most pathetic act of revenge ever, the Department of Justice has removed TPM from its email distribution list for its press releases and refuses to add them back, "explaining:"
