Report: DOJ Tracked Moms for Liberty as Hate Group

The conservative education policy group Moms for Liberty was tracked by the Department of Justice’s unit tasked with responding to “hate crimes” through alerts triggered by signals such as the Confederate flag, a noose, or a swastika, according to internal emails.

The documents show the group being tracked by the DOJ’s Community Research Service (CRS) in a manner only used to track two other groups (the Ku Klux Klan and the Oath Keepers) reported The Daily Wire, which obtained the emails through a Freedom of Information Act filed by America First Legal on its behalf.

Targets like Moms for Liberty were tracked through alerts from Google or LexisNexis based on certain keywords.
