🚨St. Louis is receiving $68M to combat violent crime and support local law enforcement.

Today I accepted the resignation of Assistant Attorney General Brett Shumate of the Civil Division. Under his leadership, the Division pursued important affirmative litigation to challenge sanctuary policies and delivered key wins in lawsuits against local policies that endangered federal law enforcement. The Division also secured historic settlements to end illegal corporate DEI practices and shuttered dozens of clinics which were providing so-called “gender affirming care” to minors. We are grateful for Brett’s service at DOJ and wish him continued success.

Agreed. A total clown.
The Chief of Staff already has a lawyer. The Attorney General of the United States and the Department of Justice.
Official statement from incoming Oversight Chairman @RepRobertGarcia on Stephen Miller being announced as White House Chief of Staff:
It was a great day in Jacksonville Florida today as we announced OVER $73 MILLION is being invested into the city through the Model Cities Initiative!
As much progress has been made over the last several years in this city, Jacksonville residents are enduring a murder rate that is three times the national average. It’s our mission to change that.

A huge thank you to Susie Wiles for her incredible service to our nation! She’s a rockstar and will no doubt continue working to make our country great. Looking forward to continuing our work with my good friend Stephen Miller as Chief. Together we’ve reduced crime to historic levels, enhanced public safety throughout our communities, and continue to root out the massive fraud that has taken advantage of American taxpayers. We’re not slowing down.

Today I accepted the resignation of Assistant Attorney General for the National Security Division John Eisenberg from the Department of Justice. He has served with distinction, strengthening our nation’s ability to address threats, both foreign and domestic.
Under his leadership, the Division advanced President Trump’s mission to make America safe by prosecuting terrorists and working with our law enforcement partners to disrupt planned attacks on the American people.
This marks John’s second tour of duty serving President Trump as a national security official and advisor. We are grateful for his many years of commitment to protecting our nation and wish him continued success.

Today, I accepted the resignation of Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon, who led the Civil Rights Division with conviction the past 18 months. She has defended the civil liberties of every American and enforced the law without fear or favor. The Department is grateful for her dedicated public service, and we wish her every success in her future endeavors.

A Mexican federal judge has been arrested on a nine-count federal indictment charging him with accepting a $2 million bribe to free a Canadian drug trafficker who was the second-in-command to former Olympic snowboarder Ryan Wedding—who is in federal custody on charges of leading a transnational cocaine trafficking operation, as well as murder and attempted murder.
Crooked public officials, no matter where they are, who assist drug traffickers operating here at home will face justice in the U.S.
Great work by the @HSTaskForce, @USAO_LosAngeles, and our law enforcement partners!

It was an honor to be in Baton Rouge today to announce @TheJusticeDept’s investment of nearly $64 million into the city through the Model Cities Initiative to enhance public safety and reduce violent crime.
From 2021 through 2025, police in the city of Baton Rouge responded to over 1,300 non-fatal shootings, over 12,000 shots-fired calls, and over 1,200 armed robberies. During that same period, aggravated assaults increased by a staggering 320%.
This violent behavior will not be tolerated by Baton Rouge anymore.

"A free and fair election" — so you'll be promptly purging the thousands of illegal voters on your rolls?
California is dead serious about the security of tomorrow's midterm elections.
If Trump tries to meddle with California's ballots, you can be sure as hell that we'll prosecute those who help him.
Californians deserve a free and fair election, and that is exactly what we'll deliver.

Election Day is tomorrow. The Department of Justice expects all federal election laws to be followed. If you have a tip on illegal conduct—including but not limited to noncitizens voting, double voting, and ballot-box stuffing—contact the FBI: 1-800-Call-FBI or
Violators will be found and prosecuted.

I’m excited to announce that FOUR cities — St. Louis, Jackson, Jacksonville, and Baton Rouge — have been selected to receive nearly $300 MILLION through the Model Cities Initiative to strengthen the rule of law and improve public safety in their jurisdictions!
Thanks to @POTUS Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill, the Model Cities Initiative allows @TheJusticeDept to invest in these four cities that are setting an example for advancing public safety to keep their communities safe.
Looking forward to these historic partnerships. #MakeAmericaSafeAgain#

Grateful that our brave @ATFHQ agents and law enforcement partners were unharmed during the apprehension of this serial shooter. Thanks to their courage and determination, he can no longer terrorize Detroit communities and will face the full force of justice.

A Detroit man admitted to shooting to kill ATF Special Agents. Terrance Markyce Davis, 34, pleaded guilty to the attempted murder of the agents, which occurred during a heated chase with law enforcement in November 2025.
“Terrance Davis is a poster child for what ATF and its partners prioritize: identifying and apprehending serial shooters in our communities. Davis terrorized Detroit neighborhoods by repeatedly shooting into homes and vehicles. He then chose to shoot at ATF agents attempting to take him into custody. Our agents and law enforcement partners didn't back down,” said @ATFDetroit Special Agent in Charge James Deir.

🚨 BRAND NEW FBI numbers comparing 21 months of the Trump administration vs. the last 21 months of the Biden administration.
Bottom line: this is the largest reduction in violent crime in United States history.
30% decrease in the nationwide murder rate, 114% increase in violent crime arrests, 32% increase in deadly fentanyl seized, and much more.
When President Trump first took office, we faced one of the highest threat environments in American history. This FBI delivered.
This is what happens with a President who backs the blue, an Attorney General who relentlessly prosecutes criminals, and good cops all over the country getting the job done.

The Department of Justice does not seek to stop any ballot from being cast or to stop the certification of Alaska's election. This litigation seeks to ensure that after Alaskans cast their ballots, they are preserved in a manner so that only Alaska's governing officials have the information necessary to make a determination as to whether Alaskan voters were confused or mislead.
The lawsuit was written by Justice Department attorneys and the Department did not coordinate with any campaign or candidate, but rather relied solely on federal law.
