President Donald Trump’s pick to lead the Department of Justice’s Civil Rights Division is being praised by conservatives as a fighter for free speech and biological reality.

President Trump announced Harmeet Dhillon as his pick for assistant attorney general. Dhillon has represented a number of high-profile clients, including pro-life journalist David Daleiden, The Daily Wire (against President Joe Biden’s COVID shot mandate), and “detransitioner” Chloe Cole.

“Throughout her career, Harmeet has stood up consistently to protect our cherished civil liberties, including taking on Big Tech for censoring our free speech, representing Christians who were prevented from praying together during COVID, and suing corporations who use woke policies to discriminate against their workers,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “Harmeet is one of the top election lawyers in the Country, fighting to ensure that all, and ONLY, legal votes are counted.”

“It has been my dream to be able to serve our great country, and I am so excited to be part of an incredible team of lawyers led by [Attorney General nominee Pam Bondi]. I cannot wait to get to work,” Dhillon wrote on X.

Dhillon will replace Kristen Clarke, Biden’s appointee to the position. Under her leadership, Clarke has aggressively used the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act (FACE) to prosecute peaceful pro-lifers protesting outside of abortion vendors.

….Dhillon also has taken on gender ideology and the transgender surgery industry.

She is representing Chloe Cole, who had her breasts removed as a teenager, in her lawsuit against Kaiser Permanente….
