Harmeet Dhillon: LIVE from Washington DC w/ DOJ Attorney Michael Gates – Ask Dr. Drew – Ep 479

And I can tell you now it's an absolute pleasure to be in D.C. serving this country at this time. And I'm here for two reasons. One is Donald Trump and the other is Harmeet Dhillon. It's just been absolutely fantastic. I understand.

Harmeet's representation of the president was very personal and direct. I was able to go into court last week and say I represent the president and the administration when a bunch of plaintiffs sued to try to stop one of his executive orders.

Yeah, so as you know, like I mentioned, I was the city attorney that was an elected position. So I served as an elected official in California for 10 years as city attorney of Huntington Beach. And for folks who don't know, Huntington Beach is a pretty big city. It's 23rd largest out of 482 in the state of California. So there's a lot going on there, a lot of issues.

And we were really at the forefront of pushing back on state overreach, on constitutional overreach, overreach by the governor, overreach by the legislature.

Right, right. Yeah, just plenty to do. So it was a constant fight, constantly in the public eye. But serving in this way at this time, as I said, is such an honor and a privilege. There's just no way I would have predicted this. But with Trump in office now, with Harmeet, there's what's...

super awesome about this experience is seeing so many patriots now serving the government that have passion and grit. They know how to fix this country and they're ready to fix this country. They're rolling up their sleeves and they are really taking the bull by the horns. And you know, Harmeet's done a great job. She got Senate confirmed, I think, three weeks ago. Congratulations to Harmeet.

I had a little bit of that in Huntington Beach because we were doing some groundbreaking work fighting the state of California and we were actually winning in a lot of ways. There were some losses, but winning in a lot of ways. And so to be able to have that type of experience here on a national level, it's just it's remarkable.
