The swift termination was a clear message: federal employees who engage in attacks on officers will face immediate consequences. Dunn’s case is now headed to court, and he will have to answer for his actions — which, according to authorities, could carry serious penalties.
Assistant Attorney General for the Civil Rights Division Harmeet Dhillon also weighed in on the matter, confirming that Dunn’s employment ended the moment officials connected him to the assault. “The man in the salmon colored shirt with the effete gesture there of throwing a Subway sandwich is, was a DOJ contractor. He is no longer,” Dhillon told The Benny Johnson Show.

Critics say the incident exposes a troubling reality — that individuals working inside the federal government can harbor open hostility toward the very institutions they serve. Supporters of President Trump have pointed to Dunn’s arrest as further proof that the so-called “Deep State” is not a conspiracy theory, but a genuine threat to the integrity of the DOJ and other agencies.
Bondi’s comments left no doubt that this administration intends to weed out employees who show contempt for law enforcement. In her words, protecting officers is non-negotiable, and anyone working for the federal government should be held to a higher standard of conduct.
Video of the incident has been widely circulated on social media, showing Dunn’s bizarre “sandwich toss” as officers stood watch in the streets. Many online have mocked the move as pathetic, while others see it as symbolic of a deeper anti-police sentiment among certain government employees.
The DOJ, now under tighter scrutiny from leadership, is making it clear that there will be zero tolerance for this kind of behavior. Dunn’s firing, paired with felony charges, sends a message to any other would-be agitators in government ranks: attack a law enforcement officer, and your career — along with your freedom — could be over in an instant.
