I do not understand how you could think he’s unwilling to let the department prosecute Trump when Trump already has two federal indictments against him. Yeah, his job is to direct the department. It’s not to interfere in individual cases, whether for or against.
The toxic culture is coming from the outside. They have no reason to trust you, because dozens of corporations institute wellness programs and talk about caring while still punishing people who take time off. Plus, some of them have just internalized the idea that they should just work through it.
