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.
-
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 – US elections 2020 – The Guardian
‘The federal government is no longer a trusted partner in democracy,’ the Colorado secretary of state, Jena Griswold, says. Composite: Rita Liu / The Guardian / Getty ImagesThey tried to overturn the 2020 US election. Now, they hold power in Trump’s Washington
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.

Texas GOP Had A Legal Path To Gerrymander. Trump’s DOJ Ordered Them To Take The Blatantly Illegal Path Instead
-
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))

⬆️ @Donnerr
>> 24+ hours and #CoryBooker is still more coherent than #Trump has ever been… Wish he was blocking some actual legislation…
@vij mentioned #Booker is filibustering the nomination of #HarmeetDhillon, aka @pnjaban.
For those who don't know, or might have forgotten, #Dhillon is the #immigrant turned #MAGA citizen who was among the first to instinctively tweet the #CoupKluxKlan to stop cooperating with #DOJ when #Russia #disinformation op was uncovered.
