By all accounts, Lee Rudofsky is someone who defends against what he called “encroachment by government.”

Nominated by President Donald Trump to serve as a federal judge in the U.S. District Court in Little Rock, Rudofsky has said that he seeks to keep violent criminals off the streets and worries that today's politics are far too volatile. Rudofsky, Walmart's senior director for global anti-corruption compliance, declined to comment for this article and referred questions to the Department of Justice.

Jay Jorgensen, his former boss at Walmart, called Rudofsky “a brilliant lawyer.” Jorgensen was global chief ethics and compliance officer at Walmart before joining South Korea's Coupang as general counsel in March.
