Honey, let me tell you something: the Civil Rights Division of the Justice Department is supposed to be the moral backbone of this country, but Trump isn’t wasting any time bending it to his will. Just four days into his second term, Trump has frozen all active civil rights cases under DOJ review, sending shockwaves through communities already fighting to have their voices heard. This ain’t about past administrations anymore, sugar – this is about the here and now, and the implications for the future are as dire as they come.
