This is the Attorney General of the United States, the top law enforcement official in the country.
SCANLON: Can we assume the DOJ has prepared that list of groups that are designated as 'domestic terrorist organizations'?
BONDI: I'm not going to answer it yes or no, but I know antifa is part of it
S: Will you commit to providing this committee with the list?

Alternatively:
If you know DOJ lawyers
who are enabling or defending Trump’s authoritarian project,
use this article & @timothysnyder.bsky.social’s book to help them realize they need to
resist from the inside
and/or
quit.

So the very good news is that hundreds (if not thousands) of individual lawyers — both those employed by the Justice Department and those who, in ordinary times, would seek to join it — are refusing to lend their hand to Trump’s authoritarian project.
Perhaps they read @timothysnyder.bsky.social
