The Trump Justice Department appears to be moving quickly to shut down the practice of racial gerrymandering once and for all, ensuring the Supreme Court’s latest ruling is enforced nationwide.
Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon made that crystal clear Thursday when she responded to Senator Eric Schmitt’s (R-MO) specific request on the matter with a straightforward “we are on it!”
Dhillon went on to stress that the DOJ under Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche is committed to equal protection for all Americans. Which shouldn’t be a novel idea in today’s world, but clearly is for our friends on the left.
Schmitt had pressed the department in a previous thread on X, urging officials to use their full authority to enforce the Supreme Court’s recent decision nationwide. He pointed out that the feds clearly have the power to step in and stop states from continuing these Democrat-led, race-based map-drawing schemes.
