    2/ When Dhillon took office as Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights: 200+ attorneys retired immediately under a federal package 100 more resigned in protest Result? The DOJ’s Civil Rights Division lost 3/4 of its Woke, DEI-enforcing staff in just 6 months.

    3/ Why did they leave? Because Dhillon is ending the era of: āŒ Woke racial spoils āŒ Weaponized ā€œequityā€ āŒ Ideological lawfare And replacing it with: āœ… Equal enforcement of the law āœ… Religious liberty protections āœ… Real civil rights, not political games

    4/ She’s already moved to: • Investigate antisemitism on campuses • Suspend funding to colleges enabling harassment • Defend religious freedom • Enforce workplace rights for Americans against foreign worker abuse That just does NOT appeal to the DOJ's Wokesters.

    5/ On elections: Dhillon has pushed for real Voting Rights Act enforcement, ending illegal racially gerrymandered districts. On speech: ā€œYou can criticize Israel… but you can’t deny another student their education or liberty.ā€ It's about time. rodmartin.org/p/will-the-sup…

    6/ Her warning shot: ā€œMost people in America feel like they have to lie throughout the day just to get by.ā€ Dhillon says the DOJ must protect Americans’ rights to speak openly without fear.

  7. #7

    7/ Dhillon shrank this vital corner of the swamp by an incredible 75% in just six months—and now she's hiring attorneys who will enforce the law as written, not as warped by Woke Deep Staters. This is Trump’s DOJ. This is accountability. This is how you save America. šŸ‡ŗšŸ‡ø
