The Justice Department is creating a unit focused on domestic terrorism.

Assistant Attorney General Matthew Olsen testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee on Tuesday on the threat of domestic terrorism.

Olsen said he created a specialized unit focused on domestic terrorism due to a growing threat of ‘anti-authority’ ideologies.

Of course Olsen isn’t talking about BLM or Antifa.

“We have seen a growing threat from those who are motivated by racial animus, as well as those who ascribe to extremist anti-government and anti-authority ideologies,” Olsen said.
