Controversial DOJ official eyed by 'Broadview 6' was involved in Chicago deportation blitz, source says
A controversial Justice Department official, Aakash Singh, has been linked to the Chicago-area deportation campaign Operation Midway Blitz and faces scrutiny over potential ties to the 'Broadview Six' case. Charges against protesters were dropped after allegations of prosecutorial misconduct, and a Tennessee judge dismissed an indictment citing Singh's pressure on prosecutors. Singh is also accused of rushing a fraud indictment against the Southern Poverty Law Center.
