In public remarks on Friday, Acting Deputy Attorney General John Carlin discussed the Department of Justice’s (DOJ’s) efforts to address the “persistent and evolving” threats to public safety and national security from domestic terrorism and violent extremism. He described how DOJ will confront the challenge using an intelligence-led, threat-driven approach grounded in data and intelligence assessments of career experts. The Department’s approach will be informed by the comprehensive threat assessment examining domestic terrorism that President Biden has asked the Director of National Intelligence to undertake, in coordination with the FBI and others in the intelligence community. As part of this, the National Security Council is also seeking to determine, how can the government better share information, support efforts to prevent radicalization, disrupt violent extremist networks, and more. Acting Deputy Attorney General Carlin also announced DOJ would be taking an “all-tools” approach to combatting domestic terrorism, one that leverage tools from across the government and across the country.
