AAG Dhillon Reminds the Dems Running VA Elections

The Trump administration has been like a bloodhound on the path of evildoers since returning to the White House in Jan. 2025 when it comes to ferreting out the waste, fraud, and abuse in our nation’s voter rolls.

One of the chief people on the case of making certain election integrity, as RedState has beforehand written, is Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon, who leads the Civil Right Division in the Justice Department (DOJ). As of early Jan., the DOJ has sued 23 states – largely Democrat-run – for their resistance to requests by the Justice Department to access voter rolls.

During a latest interview, Dhillon provides the American people an update on the latest wins her workplace has achieved by implementing the legal guidelines on the books, contrasting it with the evident weaponization that befell under former Pres. Biden.

Under this @TheJusticeDept, the period of weaponizing the federal authorities against states upholding election integrity is over.

She notes that they pressured North Carolina to take 100,000 voter registrations, and clean them up by proving that the people registered are U.S. residents. She also said the DOJ helped Wyoming defend their “excellent voter ID law from challenge by the Left.” 

Then she provides that she agrees with the host that “this never would have been done in the prior administration. In fact, they hired a bunch of lawyers to weaponize the federal government against states trying to do a better job of election integrity.”

“We put an end to that,” she says in conclusion. And this week, as my colleague Susie Moore detailed, Dhillon was half of another election integrity win:

The course of is not over, though. On Friday, AAG Dhillon had some dangerous news for the Dems working elections in the commonwealth of Virginia – the ones who have refused to work with the administration on securing free and honest voting for all Americans – with the announcement of a twenty fourth lawsuit:

Virginia turns into the next state sued for ignoring federal law! @TheJusticeDept means business — and @CivilRights will keep preventing to clean up voter rolls. Happy Friday! pic.twitter.com/duG4gWhYiz

“Virginia becomes the next state sued for ignoring federal law! @TheJusticeDept means business — and @CivilRights will keep preventing to clean up voter rolls. Happy Friday!” she wrote on her X account.

The swimsuit, filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, Richmond Division, against Susan Beals, the Commissioner of the Virginia Department of Elections, states that Beals’ “refusal to provide the election records” requested by the DOJ violates Title III of the Civil Rights Act. It also asks the court to “order Commissioner Beals to provide to the Attorney General or her representative” those data of registered voters within 5 days of a court order. 

Virginia’s Elections Commissioner would possibly need to examine her inbox immediately. We’ll present any updates on this developing story as warranted.
