Harmeet Dhillon, DOJ's controversial civil rights chief, resigns

Harmeet Dhillon, the assistant attorney general for the Civil Rights Division, resigned from the Justice Department on Thursday.

What the coverage shows

All five outlets report Harmeet Dhillon’s resignation from the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division, with CBS News, Fox News and The Hill making the exit the main focus in straightforward terms. The Guardian and The Hill frame it as a notable post-midterm departure, and Newsweek is alone in tying the coverage to Trump and to Dhillon’s support for investigations into alleged noncitizen voting. Fox News alone says sources told it the White House asked her to wait until after the midterms.
