The professional left is calling it a “bloodbath.” Former bureaucrats are lamenting that the division has been “completely refocused.” Good. That’s the point.
"Civil Rights" Has Been Turned Into a Weapon
For years now, the term “civil rights” has been weaponized by the radical left. What was once about ensuring basic equality has morphed into a political cudgel used to target Christians, undermine women’s sports, and blur the meaning of words like “discrimination” beyond recognition. Civil rights laws were intended to ensure fairness, not to create a hierarchy where certain groups are favored while others are trampled.
Under the Biden administration, the Civil Rights Division became an engine for the far left’s social agenda, aggressively targeting police departments, promoting gender ideology, and even weaponizing the law against Christian Americans. What Dhillon and the Trump administration are doing isn’t an abandonment of civil rights — it’s a return to what civil rights are actually supposed to mean: protecting the constitutional rights of all Americans, not just the favored groups of the day.
Another theme running through the establishment media's reporting is that career government lawyers are upset that their priorities have changed. To which I say: welcome to democracy. Bureaucrats (yes, even government lawyers) work at the pleasure of the President. They don't get to set national policy. The President does. That’s how our system works.
The complaints you’re hearing from these so-called “career civil servants” boil down to one thing: they don’t like that the voters elected someone who doesn’t share their priorities. They’re not neutral. They’re political actors, upset that the political winds have shifted against them. //

Which laws is the Civil Rights division enforcing when they protect cross dressing men in women’s bathrooms? Which laws is the Civil Rights division enforcing when companies adopt hiring practices based on skin color or sexual preference and identity? Maybe a change was needed.
