She founded her own law group in 2006, is a Republican National Committee member and previously held the position of vice chairwoman for the California Republican Party. In 2017, Dhillon represented the Berkeley College Republicans in a lawsuit after the university had initially called off an event where Ann Coulter was going to speak. She also filed a federal lawsuit against California and the Department of Motor Vehicles in 2019, accusing the agency of failing to verify citizenship for voter registration. The Daily Beast broke down some key points from Dhillon’s career: A 2020 Trump campaign legal adviser who begged for the Supreme Court to intervene in the presidential election over baseless claims of fraud, Dhillon’s track record indeed falls squarely on the side of conservative causes. In 2017, Dhillon represented UC Berkeley College Republicans and Young America’s Foundation when she sued the school after it cancelled a speaking appearance by right-wing commentator Ann Coulter, purportedly over safety concerns. Later that year, Dhillon represented former Google engineer James Damore, who was fired from the tech giant after he wrote an internal memo criticizing its culture and diversity policies. Two years later, Dhillon represented conservative journalist and social media influencer Andy Ngo in a suit against left-wing activist group Antifa after Ngo was injured in Portland, Oregon, by counter-protesters during a Proud Boys rally. Another point on Dhillon’s resume that Trump alluded to was how she filed several suits against California’s stay-at-home orders during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. Dhillon represented pastors and churchgoers, as well as several businesses. Dhillon also represented former Fox News host Tucker Carlson after he was sued for gender discrimination by Abby Grossberg, a former producer for Carlson’s show. That suit, as well as another by Grossberg alleging Fox coerced her into giving false testimony, resulted in a settlement where Fox paid her $12 million. Another amazing pick!
