The thing about the Trump admin is that you can ask historians "who was the most crooked person to ever run [pick any federal dept/agency/office]" and nobody even has to debate it anymore, it's almost always the Trump pick. A whole genre of historic trivia Qs wiped out just like that.
There were resignations at CRD under Nixon and Reagan but over far less egregious actions.
Dhillon is by far the worst AAG ever to run that office. No contest.

NEW: Top DOJ officials quit after their division refused to probe Minnesota ICE shooting - At least four leaders of the Civil Rights Division resigned because the section's head, Harmeet Dhillon, decided not to investigate shooting of Renee Good.

Apparently, it is now acceptable to attain a new status in life, simply by proclamation.

Welcome to Minnesota, fuckers. Also this is super disturbing because the ICE agent's assault rifle appears to fire as he falls down.
This was filmed by a friend near Chicago and Lake last night.

In case you've seen the story about “grok now only generates images for paid users”, it's untrue. Apparently everyone just reported it because… it was what grok told them 🤦🏼

No, Grok hasn’t paywalled its deepfake image feature
X’s sexual deepfake machine is still running, despite Grok saying otherwise.

It should be bigger news that masked agents were filmed hours ago removing potentially inculpatory evidence from the ICE shooter's house, clearly lacking evidence tags or chain of custody stickers.
Before we have word on whether he underwent a toxicology screen at the hospital following the killing

Every American knows that the penalty for failing to instantly comply with the "GET OUT OF THE FUCKING CAR!" law is immediate death.
Rep. Ben Cline: "Any time you have a loss of life it's a tragedy, but what we have here is law enforcement engaged in enforcing the law. What we need is for Americans to respect that."
