Harmeet Dhillon, chosen by Trump to lead the Department of Justice's Civil Rights Division, is making significant changes that have led to unrest within the division.
• Dhillon’s leadership has resulted in the reassignment or resignation of many experienced lawyers.
• Priorities are shifting to focus on issues like "Keeping Men out of Women’s Sports" and "Ending Radical Indoctrination in K-12 Schooling. "
• A senior official described the situation as a "complete bloodbath," indicating widespread dissatisfaction among employees.
• Former officials claim these changes diverge significantly from the traditional missions of the division, expressing concerns about the practical implications of new directives.
• Dhillon argues that the adjustments are standard for any new administration, which allocates resources according to its priorities for efficiency.
• Many former employees suggest that the scale of realignment in the civil rights enforcement priorities is unprecedented.
The actions and policies implemented under Dhillon's leadership have raised concerns about the future direction of the DOJ's Civil Rights Division, prompting a significant pushback from current and former officials.
