One of the most effective members of the Trump Administration is stepping down after the 2026 midterms.
Harmeet Dhillon, the Assistant AG for the DOJ Civil Rights Division, who has been leading the fight against anti-white and anti-Asian racist discrimination in the United States, announced she is leaving the Swamp to return to private practice.
Harmeet Dhillon plans to step down from her role leading the Justice Department's civil rights unit, marking the first senior DOJ official to resign following Democrats' massive midterm wins.
Dhillon, who has vastly transformed the Civil Rights Division since her Senate confirmation in April 2025, has told allies that she would be leaving the department after the midterm elections, according to four people familiar. Her official announcement is expected as soon as Thursday, two of the individuals said ...
Dhillon, a former Republican Party official and campaign lawyer for President Donald Trump, previously indicated in an August roundtable interview with Bloomberg reporters and editors that she planned to return to her California-based law firm, Dhillon Law Group, following her tenure at DOJ.
(Take some of this with a grain of salt, since Bloomberg appears to have used AI to write their story.)
But Bloomberg isn't alone in breaking the news.
Here's Fox on the imminent departure:
Harmeet Dhillon resigned Thursday as the Department of Justice's assistant attorney general for civil rights, sources told Fox News.
Dhillon, who assumed office in April 2025, ran the Civil Rights Division. She is leaving after President Donald Trump's Republican Party lost the House and Senate in this week's midterm elections.
The pundits believe there could be a mass exodus from the Trump administration after the midterm blowout.
This might be the first of many.
