🚨Asst. AG @HarmeetKDhillon is shaking up the DOJ’s civil rights division, and is ending a lot of what conservatives have seen as egregious selective justice.

Her division covers everything from race-based discrimination to Title IX to enforcing certain voting rights acts.

She’s also taking action on gender transition procedures and medical mandates that violate religious freedom.

🧵Here’s what she told me. After @HarmeetKDhillon sent out memos to each of the 11 sections of the Civil Rights Division (about 600 people, including 400+ attorneys) clarifying what the priorities are going to be under the new administration, HALF of the staff have chosen to go on unpaid leave.

It “triggered quite a few people in the department who have spent some of their careers doing certain agendas to say: ‘I don't want to work here anymore, because I don't want to do that. I wanted to do what I was doing in the last four years.’

That's not how it works. The Department of Justice is part of the executive branch. It's under the President, and so the President gets to set the agenda.

And so as long as we're hewing to what the statutory basis is that I've been assigned to do by Congress, it's fair for us to change our priorities.”

.@SenRonJohnson: "When @RobertKennedyJr called me up as he was contemplating making this move…[which] has cost him dearly, personally…my first comment was: 'Bobby, this is an answer to my prayers.'

Not only because he'll be given the chance to focus on what he's been championing now for decades, children's health, chronic illness, but I think even more importantly, for our nation, he is setting an example for how you set your political differences aside and focus on an area of agreement to tackle a difficult problem and demonstrate to America, this is exactly how you heal and unify a horribly divided nation."

I'm at the @RescueRepublic event in Washington DC today talking to folks about the event and what they're advocating for. @SenRonJohnson @RobertKennedyJr Family physician @drcraigwax: "Everyone must have the right to informed consent, and informed consent means knowing the benefits, the risks, and the alternatives.

All of those disappeared in the last four years."

I never thought we'd ever find an actual survivor of the Chinese regime's horrific practice of forced organ harvesting from prisoners of conscience, which amounts to a billion-dollar industry in China.

But here he is, in front of me, Mr. Cheng Peiming. Here's a 🔴livestream of the @ETAC_Global press event, "First-Known Survivor of Forced Organ Harvesting Speaks Out", happening right in in Washington DC, w/ survivor Cheng Peiming, former head of @StateDRL Robert Destro who brought him to the US & others👇

One take home thus far: it looks like there's bipartisan support in @COVIDSelect to holding David Morens and Peter Daszak accountable.

Not 100% clear yet what this means? I wasn't either. I had forgotten this saying & essay until recently when I landed in a space with @ooana & @shelley_curious, where I was issued a challenge: "explain this Chinese saying." (2/22)
