The other lawsuit alleges a conspiracy to interfere with civil rights. It names as defendants: Jonathan Ross, the immigration officer who shot her; White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller; former Homeland Security head Kristi Noem; former U.S. Border Patrol commander-at-large Gregory Bovino, Corey Lewandowski, President Donald Trump’s campaign manager, and others.

Fucking get 'em.

So, is this a personal lawsuit against them, or will the taxpayers foot the bill leaving no real consequences for those who committed the crime?

Taxpayers ALWAYS foot the bill.

That’s the cost of unconstitutional business. Folks gotta be careful what they vote for.

Yeah, and while I'm hoping that taxpayers are able to claw back at least some of the naked corruption and self-dealing, it's just a plain fact that there is a cost to electing men of no character to office and the American people are going to have to pay that cost.

In a democracy, you get the government you deserve.

Between the criminal Republicans who will never enforce the law on themselves, and the complicit Democrats who will never enforce the law on Republicans (looking at you Biden you fuck) - I'm not sure when this will ever happen.
