A single Republican senator — Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) — voted against the nomination of Harmeet Dhillon to serve as assistant attorney general, veering away from the rest of her GOP colleagues who voted in favor.
After her nomination in December, lawmakers finally held a formal vote Thursday and Dhillon was approved in a 52-45 vote. However, Murkowski opposed the nomination and sided with Democrats.
President Donald Trump announced in December the nomination of Dhillon to work as Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights at the U.S. Department of Justice.
“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 said in a statement, describing her as “one of the top Election lawyers in the Country, fighting to ensure that all, and ONLY, legal votes are counted.”

Lisa got primaried out.
Because Alaska has no Sore Loser law, she ran as an Indy and was bankrolled by the Native Corps.
She is not an (R), but a wholly owned subsidiary of the Native Corps./
#Not my Senator, never has been
Amore’ spurned.
I would vote for the D if it would remove her. Same with the itch from Maine.
The Icicle only pulls this crap to piss off Americans.
What to do with a brat? ..... Ignore it.
I know this: if the senate was 50-50 she would switch parties and hand the Senate to the rats. I have absolutely no doubt about that.
Harmeet Dhillon is brilliant and exceptionally tough. Knew her well in law school, and she scared the crap out of a lot of guys. Perfect choice for that job.
Is he even American?
..."thinking" the RINOCrats won't come up with somebody just as bad only younger. IOW, Wrongo!
**I know this: if the senate was 50-50 she would switch parties and hand the Senate to the rats. I have absolutely no doubt about that.**
Her vote made no difference. Same with the Kavanaugh vote.
Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) is the very definition of a RINO. Deep state uniparty.
Fire these two out and deal with replacing their replacement.
Has she voted FOR anything Trump is trying to do? Makes you wonder what the point of her being @in the party” is really worth. She’s more reliable (for Dems) than some Dems at this point.
In related news: The sun rose in the East today.
Her vote made no difference.”
Well yes obviously but that wasn’t my point.
Born in India into a Punjabi Sikh family. She practices the Sikh religion.
Indians sure present some dilemmas to stereotypical racial and political thinking.
Black skin but they are white. Many speak English better than we do. Most are well educated and smart. But then some are poor ill mannered and ignorant. The caste system is repressive but even the lowest caste can thrive here.
In general we need more Indian immigrants like her.
Wasn’t he in ‘Tombstone’? 😜
Republicans have to replace her, even if it means buying off the tribes.
That’s one cycle, not two.
