The DOJ Is Being Dismantled From the Inside, A Former Insider Explains What We're Losing

The Department of Justice has lost over 10,000 employees. The acting Attorney General, Todd Blanche, appears to be auditioning for the permanent job by doing whatever the President wants. The FBI Director, Kash Patel, has faced serious misconduct allegations, and nothing has been done about it. So what does it actually mean for the rest of us?

Grant sits down with Stacey Young, founder of Justice Connection, an organization supporting current and former DOJ employees navigating this unprecedented moment, for a frank conversation about the $1.8 billion "anti-weaponization" fund, the erosion of institutional trust, and what rebuilding the DOJ might actually look like.
