司法部民事司司长Brett Shumate辞职 部长Blanche在X发帖宣布
华盛顿 — 据路透社报道，美国司法部长 Todd Blanche 11 月 9 日（周一）在社交平台 X 发帖宣布，司法部助理部长 Brett Shumate 已辞职。Shumate 是司法部民事司司长，Blanche 的帖文没有说明辞职原因，司法部也尚未公布继任人选。
Shumate 是司法部民事司第 36 任助理部长。他于 2025 年 6 月 9 日经参议院以 51 票对 41 票表决确认，2025 年 6 月 11 日宣誓就职，任职约 17 个月。民事司是司法部主要诉讼部门之一，负责在联邦法院代表美国政府处理民事案件。
这是司法部一周内第三起高层离任。本月 5 日，民权司司长 Harmeet Dhillon 辞职，Blanche 同样经 X 发帖宣布已接受其辞呈；次日，国家安全司司长 Eisenberg 与佛罗里达南区联邦检察官 Quiñones 同日离任。上述离任均发生在中期选举民主党重掌国会两院之后，Blanche 此前已就国会监督调查的应对公开表态。

Justice Department Civil Division Head Brett Shumate Resigns, Blanche Announces on X
WASHINGTON — U.S. Assistant Attorney General Brett Shumate, head of the Justice Department's Civil Division, has resigned, Attorney General Todd Blanche announced in a post on X on Monday, November 9, according to Reuters. Blanche's post gave no reason for the resignation, and the department has not yet named a successor.
Shumate was the Civil Division's 36th Assistant Attorney General. He was confirmed by the Senate on June 9, 2025, by a 51-41 vote and was sworn in on June 11, 2025, serving about 17 months. The Civil Division is one of the Justice Department's main litigating divisions, representing the United States in civil cases in federal court.
The departure is the third senior Justice Department exit in a week. Harmeet Dhillon, head of the Civil Rights Division, resigned on November 5, with Blanche likewise announcing on X that he had accepted her resignation. The following day, Eisenberg, head of the National Security Division, and Quiñones, the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Florida, left their posts the same day. The departures follow the midterm elections, in which Democrats regained control of both chambers of Congress, and Blanche has publicly addressed how the department will respond to congressional oversight investigations.
