Donald Trump Administration Figure Alleges Decades of DOJ Discrimination Against White Folks

Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon ignited a political uproar by stating that white individuals are the primary victims of civil rights abuses in America, claiming they've endured “50 years of discrimination” from the U.S. Department of Justice’s Civil Rights Division. Following her Senate confirmation this year, she quickly dismissed over 250 attorneys in the division, asserting that they held opposing views—representing more than 70 percent of the workforce.During her appearance on the "Pod Force One" podcast with columnist Miranda Devine, Dhillon celebrated her actions, expressing disdain for diversity, equity, and inclusion programs. She stated, “This 50 years of discrimination against law-abiding citizens is over,” suggesting it harms many.While Dhillon's remarks drew backlash and disbelief on social media, she also faced challenges in attracting conservative legal talent who subscribe to her views on civil rights violations. Additionally, she terminated ongoing investigations into civil rights abuses in various police departments, favoring self-investigation over external oversight.
