  5. yahoo news | Former Attorney General Pam Bondi Arrives for Closed-Door Epstein Files...

    AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.

    Former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi appeared before the House Oversight Committee on May 29, 2026 for a closed‑door deposition on her handling of Justice Department files related to Jeffrey Epstein, arriving with a white throat bandage after announcing a thyroid‑cancer diagnosis. In her opening statement she acknowledged “redaction errors” in the initial release of the Epstein materials and said she had delegated the process to then‑deputy attorney general Todd Blanche. The hearing, held in Bondi’s personal capacity and attended by Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon as government counsel, was framed by committee chair James Comer as an effort to provide truth and justice for Epstein survivors, who criticized the Justice Department’s past handling of the case. Bondi’s testimony is the thirteenth in the committee’s multi‑year Epstein investigation, which continues to schedule further high‑profile depositions as lawmakers push for greater transparency and the release of more unreleased files.

    AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.

    The Uncanny Valley episode examines three major stories: the high‑stakes Musk‑vs‑Altman trial, which centres on Elon Musk’s claims that OpenAI abandoned its nonprofit mission and misled him into funding a for‑profit venture, raising questions about OpenAI’s corporate structure and the broader AI industry; the wave of recent layoffs at Meta (and voluntary buyouts at Microsoft) that highlight how AI‑driven efficiencies are reshaping tech employment, especially for junior engineers and contractors who train AI models; and a WIRED investigation revealing that the Department of Justice’s Voting Rights Section has been virtually gutted, with longtime experts replaced by politically aligned hires, threatening the enforcement of voting‑rights protections ahead of upcoming elections.

  10. Y’all, one of you remind me to deep dive into the crazy that is #HarmeetDhillon, cause hooooboi, she makes Pam #Bondi look qualified. Losing this caliber of talent at the #doj on top of the hundreds of attorneys and prosecutors who have fled the crazy, is a national crisis. On top of all the others.

    The Department of Justice is seeing its latest mass resignation over its handling of the case of Renee #Good, who was fatally shot by #ICE agent #Ross last week in Minneapolis.

    Days after Harmeet Dhillon, assistant attorney general for civil rights, announced that the agency’s Civil Rights Division would not be investigating the shooting—despite the fact that the office’s criminal unit would ordinarily probe any abuse or improper use of force by law enforcement—four top officials in the section have resigned.

  11. The DOJ put it in black and white.

    The Civil Rights Division, who has holistically had the job of investigating dirty cops after they murder someone, refused to take the case.

    When long time prosecutors offered to fly out to investigate the crime scene they were TURNED AWAY.

    The person in charge of the case is Harmeet Dhillon. She was Trump's 2020 campaign legal advisor while he claimed voter fraud. Now a head of Civil Rights @ DOJ

    They tried to overturn the 2020 US election. Now, they hold power in Trump’s Washington

    By Rachel Leingang

    Those who tried to overturn the 2020 election now occupy key federal roles, shaping rules and sowing doubt for 2026

    Published Sat 29 Nov 2025 07.00 EST

    The people who tried to overturn the 2020 election have more power than ever – and they plan to use it.

    Bolstered by the president, they have prominent roles in key parts of the federal government. Harmeet Dhillon, a lawyer who helped advance Donald Trump’s claims of a stolen election in 2020, now leads the civil rights division of the justice department. An election denier, Heather Honey, now serves as the deputy assistant secretary for election integrity in the department of homeland security. Kurt Olsen, an attorney involved in the “stop the steal” movement, is now a special government employee investigating the 2020 election.

    A movement that once pressured elected officials to bend to its whims is now part of the government.

    “The call is literally coming from inside the house,” said Joanna Lydgate, co-founder and chief executive officer of the States United Democracy Center. “Now it has its tentacles in the White House, in Congress and federal agencies, and with outside groups really feeding into that infrastructure.”

    The Trump administration is going after states with dubious requests for voter data that could ensnare qualified voters and will serve as an underpinning for future claims of fraud. They are working to install rules that limit voter access or sow seeds of distrust in who can vote and how. Trump has put federal agents in cities around the country, raising fears that officers could be tapped for election purposes.

    “All of this, while focused on past elections, is misdirection about what the actual intention likely is, which is to interfere with the 2026 elections and attempt to delegitimize them if the president’s party doesn’t do well,” said David Becker, the executive director of the Center for Election Innovation & Research. The results of the 2025 off-year elections, in which Democrats saw big wins, likely “strengthen the administration’s resolve to interfere in state elections and to further spread doubt about outcomes”, he said.

    Some state and local elections officials say they no longer have working relationships with the federal government and do not trust the expertise they used to tap into on election security.

    “The federal government is no longer a trusted partner in democracy,” Jena Griswold, the Democratic secretary of state in Colorado, told the Guardian.

    Arizona secretary of state, Adrian Fontes, said: “There would have to be a significant shift in the rhetoric and the attitude coming out of senior leadership in the administration before I open my door and say, ‘Yeah, you guys, come on in.’ It’d be foolish of me to let the fox into the hen house.”

    Asked for comment, the White House did not address questions about what authority Trump believes he has over elections or whether he would use emergency powers to take control of elections, as election experts fear he may.

    What have they done with their power?

    Trump’s 2024 win ignited the promotion of election denialism, both in the ranks of the president known to reward loyalty and in outside groups that had long been lobbying for new laws and policies that fit with their false claims of rampant election fraud.

    On the first day of Trump’s term, he granted clemency to all those who stormed the Capitol in the January 6 insurrection. By November, he issued dozens of preemptive pardons for those involved in a fake electors scheme and other attempts to subvert the 2020 elections results. Ed Martin, a stop the steal activist, has assisted with pardons.

    Lydgate, of States United, said the administration’s strategy on elections is “death by 1,000 cuts, with the goal of making sure that this group of election deniers can get the results that they want”.

    The three key pillars of the strategy, she said, are taking power away from nonpartisan elections officials, overwhelming election administrators with frivolous work and threats, and attempting to shape the electorate in their favor by removing them from the rolls.

    “There have always been political leaders who complain about the results of elections, but not in this way where you are trying to discredit the entire system and that you’re channeling the resources of the federal government in furtherance of that measure,” said Derek Tisler, counsel and manager in the Brennan Center’s elections and government program.

    Election activists helped draft a bill that would require people to prove their citizenship in order to vote. When the US House passed the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (Save) Act, Cleta Mitchell, the leader of an influential “election integrity” group, was presented with the vote count card.

    When Trump issued an executive order in March about “preserving and protecting the integrity of American elections”, it appeared similar to a “US Citizens Elections Bill of Rights” that Mitchell had promoted, with both calling for documentary proof of citizenship to register to vote. Much of the executive order has been stalled by the courts.

    The quest for widespread citizenship verification among election activists convinced that high numbers of non-citizens are voting led to an expanded, controversial use of a system intended to screen for citizenship for public benefits, not voting. The Trump administration has said it expanded the service to search more databases and allow election officials to search for people in large batches instead of individually. Officials reportedly briefed Mitchell’s group to explain the new uses. Voting rights groups have sued over this expansion.

  13. a few weeks ago the #MAGA harpie running the federal civil rights division at #DOJ (Harmeet Dhillon) called out a so-called "liberal judge" Diane Goodstein for ruling against the trump administration, after which that judge received all kinds of threats from MAGA chuds.

    #StephenMiller also weighed in on Judge Goodstein's decision in typically calm and restrained fashion, basically calling her a defender of #terrorism.

    that judge's house just burned to the ground and her husband is in the hospital.

    coincidence?

    (oh, and she also happens to be jewish, which isn't super popular with the MAGA chud voting bloc these days since half of them blame israel for the death of charlie kirk (yes really))

    Trump LANDS in NEW SCANDAL wit...

  15. At this point, I think the degree to which bald-faced racial animus and white nationalist ideology helps form the very core of what the Trump regime does on a day to day basis, makes it ridiculously irresponsible not to discuss the open white supremacy underpinning those actions when reporting on them. I think we're all aware that Donald Trump and the vast majority of his administration are committed racists, but when politically-empowered racists start devoting the immense power of the state to prosecuting white grievance, and re-establishing an ethno-nationalist legal, political, and social order, that should be front page news no matter how many times it has already come up before. Take for example the relative lack of media uproar about the news that Trump's Department of Justice is launching what's effectively an "anti-Affirmative Action or DEI" investigation into the Black Democrat Mayor of Chicago, Brandon Johnson for literally hiring Black people, in a minority majority city.

    nbcnews.com/politics/justice-d

    Justice Department to investigate Chicago after mayor's remarks about hiring Black officials

    "The Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division said Monday that it was opening an investigation into the city of Chicago after Mayor Brandon Johnson's comments Sunday highlighting prominent Black officials in his administration.

    Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon wrote in a letter to Johnson posted on X that she had “authorized an investigation” into whether Chicago is “engaged in a pattern or practice of discrimination” following Johnson’s remarks at a church Sunday.

    “If these kind of hiring decisions are being made for top-level positions in your administration, then it begs the question of whether such decisions are also being made for lower-level positions,” Dhillon wrote.

    Johnson said in remarks at Apostolic Church of God that the deputy mayor, the chief operations officer, the budget director and others are all Black people. Johnson said some of his detractors criticize him by saying the only thing he talks about "is the hiring of Black people."

    “No, what I’m saying is when you hire our people, we always look out for everybody else," he said."

    Alright so bear with me for a moment because the amount of racist petulant adult baby shit going on here is significant, and I'm not sure the quoted passage does it justice. The (un)Civil Rights division of Trump's Justice Department is investigating the Mayor of Chicago for crimes against whiteness because he highlighted the effectiveness of hiring Black people in a city that's roughly 65% non-white, and 30% Black, while speaking at a Black majority church. So, what normal people would call "political campaigning."

    As the article goes on to note, the announcement of this investigation comes despite the raw demographic data showing only a slim majority of Black employees among the Mayor's Office staff:

    "According to the mayor’s office, white and Black employees are a majority of staff members, with 30.5% of employees identifying as white and 34.3% identifying as Black."

    So, the Trump administration is harassing the Mayor of a majority-minority city winger racists have been demonizing for years, because Johnson hired a staff that looks more or less like the community he serves, demographically. Of course there's a little more backstory here, because Mayor Johnson has been critical of Trump's racism and racist policies; to which any rational person should probably respond "well, good for him; at least he got something right given how poorly his tenure as Mayor has gone." The reality here however is that someone inside the Trump regime heard a Black Mayor brag about hiring Black leaders in his administration at a Black Church and decided that was probably a race crime against whiteness. Normally, the story would end there, with a note that "crackers believe the weirdest shit" but because this is a white nationalist government prepared to move heaven and earth to prosecute white grievance, here we are.

    I sincerely hope the reason media minions are missing the point of this story isn't that Trump sent out the Indian-American lady to announce the threat on Johnson; we're far too late in the game for "but they have a minority friend" to carry water. Maybe folks don't want to talk about Brandon Johnson because he's a bad Mayor, who ran as a progressive, and has more or less let down all the people who brought him to power in Chicago. That's fair, but when the Trump administration is using the Department of Justice to target its political opposition for blatantly racist reasons, Very Serious People TM in the discourse could at least use that story to stop equivocating about whether or not these guys really are cracker nazis, doing cracker nazi shit.
