and its well over 100,000 employees.



Here's one for JUST the criminal division -- count 3 rows in from the far right lower rank, box at top, though organization may have changed or grown over time:



The DoJ is, of course, the attorney for the people of the United States. It doesn't just investigate and prosecute people in all areas of the nation who've broken federal laws for us, but it breaks organized crime rings for us and puts terrorists in prison for us. It also processes background checks so we can get hired for/start our new jobs. And of course a whole hell of a lot more, including investigating and prosecuting corruption and crimes in government -- when a criminal president hasn't astonishingly appointed a criminal to head it.

Those criminals do not erase the work of the over 100,000 others. Whitacker's and Barr's appointments are appalling perversion of the DoJ, meant to protect the president from the DoJ. That's why these people are a tremendous insult to everyone else who works there.

Btw, regarding this "just us" theme the OP has brought over from another thread, DoJ jobs are federal civil service mainly located in urban areas around the nation. That means a whole bunch of that payroll is PoC and other minorities, including disabled.
