It is imperative that DOJ dismiss all of its pending voting rights cases and withdraw from those in which it has intervened. The Biden administration should not hand over cases in which Dhillon can have DOJ switch sides and undermine voting rights.
We are on our own from here.

🚨BREAKING: Donald Trump has nominated a sycophant loyalist to head the Department of Justice's Civil Rights Division.
This will put enormous pressure on outside groups and election lawyers to fight for voting rights in court. DOJ will be on the other side with vote suppressors and election deniers.

Yet, parties voting against their own interests, handed this dipshit the nuclear codes. Again.
Jonestown had a high suicide turnout rate.
I nominate Jeffrey Dahmer for FDA.
I nominate Charles Manson for Hostage Affairs Envoy.
I nominate Al Capone for Treasury.
I nominate Bernie Madoff for SEC.
They’re all great people, who’ll do an excellent job making America great again.
I’m too old for this shit.
Yikes! We need to call and write the White House, and our representatives, urging them to do everything they can to stop (wishing) and slow down (hoping) the madness coming in January.
Nobody saw this coming?
What can I do to help?
Im finished donating for now
News flash - it's not exactly team-democracy.
We have to rally for him and for our democracy and ourselves and our kids and our planet

Well he has done judges. GLEE
White protestant male paternalism, pushing genetic & gender superiority.
A 200+yr old agricultural (southern) ideology which exploits the Bible and promoted by "faith" leaders.
Today, it is led by a birther who refused to acknowledge the legitimacy of the 1st black POTUS.
But it never hit me about this problem until your post just now!
But you are soooo right.
They have to drop them .
Anyway, Marc, we can't rely on Garland's DOJ to do the right thing, so I hope you're developing another plan. 👍
I say this as a paid up member of @democracydocket.com
Harmeet Dhillon, as the US AstAG for the Civil Rights Division, will reverse all the civil rights advances or country has made in the past 60 years.
They have failed and are in need of emergency resuscitation.
It's heresy.
And then even more exhausting once you understand his implications.

much left to do in the last month it has but I’m not sure they care enough to do near enough of it.
Even if they do, do they have enough time?
I feel like we here on Bluesky are just shouting into an abyss outside of us with little to no response.
Scorecards / primary threats are how the right has done this for years. But it takes lots of money / organizing.
ALL WHITE, ALL THE TIME.
Maybe that idea would be accepted in DC or SDNY. Few other places.
It is important for cities and "states" (whatever those become now) to be ready to reject voter-hostile regulations issued from illegitimate federal officers.

Too early to give their hand away.
Strategy.
DOJ ☝️☝️
Garland might mess us all up again! @deptofjustice.bsky.social
HOW ARE THIS MANY CORRUPT AND EVIL PEOPLE WILLING TO INSTALL FASCISM?!
WHY IS EVERY DEMOCRAT SILENT & ABSENT, LEAVING MARC AND TEAM ALONE TO TRY TO SAVE DEMOCRACY?!
I visited my Dad’s grave after the election and apologized to him for not saving Democracy. I’m glad he isn’t here to see this. He cried on Jan 6. I’d never seen him cry before.
It gets worse n worse.
I need the “how to guide” for helping. I’m good at following directions. I just need to know the matching orders. Who do we call or email or message?
Where are our Democratic leaders??

I just don't know how she could have decided Trump was a true Republican and helped usher him into office. Most principled Republicans I know saw the truth of it.
