Justice official under Trump plays politics with personal tragedy
On Saturday, a house belonging to the South Carolina environmental judge burned. Three people, including the judge’s wife and son, were seriously injured.
The reason for the fire was not immediately clear. An investigation continues.
Obviously, harm and destruction were terrible things. However, what turned this tragedy into a more terrible and oresting thing was that the judge was targeted by death threats after deciding against the Trump administration in a case containing voter files of the state.
Last month, Judge Diane Goodtein temporarily prevented South Carolina from publishing data to the US Department of Punishment (ie the Ministry of Justice), which reversed the tables in search of “facts” in order to support President Trump’s lies of stolen elections in 2020.
Among those criticizing the decision Southern Carolina Supreme CourtSan Francisco lawyer Harmeet Dhillon, who is currently president of the Ministry of Justice’s Department of Civil Rights, was currently president of the Department of Civil Rights.
Here is a short exam. Can you imagine what Dhillon did after the fire by guiding professional norms and human morality?
A) He consoled Goodtein in front of the public and said that the Ministry of Justice would give all its weight to an emergency investigation into the fire.
B) He stood up with a rightful anger and issued a state of condemning the political violence performed by the left, right or center, regardless of his shape.
C) He used social media to trolize a political rival, expressing concerns about the targeting of judges and provocative discourses from the Trump administration.
If you have chosen something other than “C ,, you are obviously not familiar with DHillon. Or maybe you’ve spent your last months in a coma or broke out of the world. The frozen tundra of Antarctica.
It can be revealed that the cause of the fire is unfortunate and clearly not political. For example, a pot that is left unattended on the stove or a cooker. South Carolina’s senior police officer said that a preliminary investigation was initiated No evidence has arisen so far He said the fire was consciously removed.
But the important thing is DHillon’s reaction.
He is not a bit of sympathy or not as a stubborn and meticulous seeker of truth and justice. But as a political warrior that lifts fists in the air.
The timing of the fire, the threats of Goodtein, and the country’s political atmosphere, which made the country goose bumps, presented more than a pause and in -depth thinking. At least the loss of Goodtein and the pain of her husband and her child required compassion.
However, DHillon is not worried about the ruthless and unfounded conspiracy allegations, not worried about the hammer attack on his husband in 2022, Nancy Pelosi, the former House of Representatives.
Until then, Dhillon, who criticized Trump before winning his 2016 Republican nomination, changed shape and became one of Trump’s most voice supporters, Fox News and other right -wing media. His dalkitism gave the fruit of Dhillon with the appointment of not only Trump’s well -intentioned, but to the Ministry of Justice, who must protect all Americans’ civil and constitutional rights.
In today’s sulfur climate, there are many shorts. In fact, it has become a national entertainment to pour and blame finger.
The management argues that leftist radicals are responsible for the murder of Conservative activist Charlie Kirk and the sniper attack on the Ice field office in Dallas. The left blame Trump and his toxic subject Stephen Miller for the burning of Goodtein’s house.
When Neera Tanden, a liberal thought -tank leader and a productive asset on social media, may be a connection between fire and Miller’s hateful discourse, Dhillon responded as a child in a fiery war. Dhillon wrote to X, “Clown … Magic, my daughter.”
When he pointed to a spokesman for Governor Gavin Newsom, Dhillon and his criticism of the southern Carolina judge, Dhillon evaluated some exaggerated answers and called the US Police Organization. “We will not tolerate such threats of vigilant fools, including employees for @gavinnewsom,” DHillon said.
There is a sad appearance of hastiness rather than a discreet decision on all sides.
However, there is a big difference between a press worker who takes his entertainment from social media and the US Deputy Chief Public Prosecutor who plays politics with personal disaster.
And indeed, there are no better ways to earn better jobs and salary than Dhillon, like a bad girl obsessed with likes and followers?
But worse than this kind of childish behavior is what Dhillon embodies: the attitude of us-them who penetrate the administration and act for those who do not vote for Trump. more than half of the country – As a target.
As if federal programs are serving only members of a party, this is clearly seen in their speeches in the closure of “democrat” institutions. This is clearly seen in the federal militarization of the cities managed by the democrats and the cutting of funds provided to blue states, not to the red states during the closure of the existing government.
This appeared in the briefings about military plans and operations during the closure of military plans given to Republican MPs but not given to the democrats working in Capitol Hill.
Dhillon is just one of the wheels of Trump’s malicious arms of Washington. However, the Partisan response as a reflex against the destination of Judge Goodtein’s house describes a lot.
We live in really dark times when the person responsible for the application of civil rights in the country cannot show a little bit of kindness.
