#DOJ Deletes Study Showing #DomesticTerrorists Are Most Often #RightWing

Following Charlie Kirk’s assassination and the Trump administration’s promise to go after the “radical left” a study showing most domestic terrorism is far-right was disappeared.

"The Department of Justice has removed a study showing that white supremacist and far-right violence “continues to outpace all other types of terrorism and domestic violent extremism” in the United States.

The study, which was conducted by the National Institute of Justice and hosted on a DOJ website was available there at least until September 12, 2025, according to an archive of the page saved by the Wayback Machine. Jason Paladino first reported that the study was removed. 404 Media noticed the removal after it was flagged by Daniel Malmer, a PhD student studying online extremism at UNC-Chapel Hill.

" 'The Department of Justice's Office of Justice Programs is currently reviewing its websites and materials in accordance with recent Executive Orders and related guidance,' reads a message on the page where the study was formerly hosted. 'During this review, some pages and publications will be unavailable. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.' "

I checked this mor thourougly than I usually would check articles from @404mediaco because I had seen several outlets mention the 340 million number, and very few mention the 400m. So I was curious about which was right. I followed 404's link to PIRG and then their link to Forbes. There I read this:

"Of the 700 million Windows 10 users, it’s thought more than 400 million can upgrade, with at least 240 million PCs missing that security hardware hurdle."

_can_ upgrade it says for the 400 number!

The Forbes contributor does not link to any further sources for this, but it seems most likely then that the 400 million number is just a misreading of some kind, and that the 240 million number, reported by many more outlets, is much closer to what we can know of the truth.

Both are obviously terrible, but one is less terrible, and truth matters. I really hope @404mediaco will take a look at this and correct their article, or link a better source if they still think 400m is correct. #404media
