He worked in the Southern District until 1991, being involved in corruption cases.[7] Johnson returned to Paul, Weiss in 1992 and was elected partner at the firm in 1994.

In 1998, Johnson was appointed General Counsel of the Air Force by President Bill Clinton after confirmation by the U.S. Senate. As General Counsel, Johnson was the senior legal official in the Air Force and Governor of Wake Island, in the Pacific Ocean.[citation needed] His tenure coincided with the bombing of Yugoslavia, Operation Allied Force in 1999, where, among other legal decisions, the US Air Force was allowed to deliberately bomb the Chinese embassy[8]. He was awarded the Decoration for Exceptional Civilian Service for his efforts.[9]

General Counsel of the Department of Defense

On January 8, 2009, then President-elect Barack Obama announced Johnson's nomination as Department of Defense General Counsel.[13] In 2009, Johnson was heavily involved in the reform of military commissions, and testified before Congress numerous times in support of the Military Commissions Act of 2009.[14]

As general counsel, Johnson gave a number of speeches on national security. In a speech he delivered at the Heritage Foundation in October 2011, Johnson warned against "over-militarizing" the U.S. government's approach to counterterrorism: "There is risk in permitting and expecting the U.S. military to extend its powerful reach into areas traditionally reserved for civilian law enforcement in this country." [15] At a speech at Yale Law School in February 2012, Johnson defended "targeted killings".[16]

At the Oxford Union in November 2012, shortly before his resignation, Johnson delivered an address titled "The conflict against al Qaeda and its affiliates: how will it end?" In that speech, he predicted a "tipping point" at which the U.S. government's efforts against al Qaeda should no longer be considered an armed conflict, but a more traditional law enforcement effort against individual terrorists.

The Oxford Union speech received widespread press attention,[17][18][19] and editorial acclaim in corporate media as the first such statement coming from an Obama administration official.[20]

In December 2015, Jeh Johnson announced in the wake of attacks in Paris and San Bernardino, California, Johnson announced plans to roll out a new terror threat warning system.[21]

According to the official narrative, Johnson personally gave the legal approval for U.S. special forces to go into Pakistan to kill Osama bin Laden.[22]

Secretary of Homeland Security

Johnson was nominated by President Barack Obama to be the fourth U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security in October 2013, and was subsequently confirmed on December 16, 2013, by the U.S. Senate with a vote of 78–16.[23][24]

When Johnson entered office one of his top priorities was to fill all of the high level vacancies. By April 2015 the President had appointed and the Senate confirmed all but one of Johnson's senior leader positions.[25]
