A significant number of attorneys in the U.S. Department of Justice's Civil Rights Division have resigned, largely due to a politically motivated purge initiated by the Trump administration. Harmeet Dhillon, the new division leader, claims that these departures were due to policy disagreements, but former employee insights suggest a systematic effort to dismiss career civil servants. The administration's leadership has sought to replace nonpartisan staff with individuals aligned with their agenda, circumventing legal protections against partisan firings by reassigning experienced leaders to less influential roles.
The division has undergone an aggressive and illegal purge strategically executed to drain its talent and its power to protect Americans' most fundamental rights.
This administration got around that problem. Within weeks, key leaders from the Civil Rights Division were transferred to a nebulous "task force" to pursue dubious legal action against sanctuary cities.
