WASHINGTON, D.C (LifeSiteNews) — A senior official in the Department of Justice (DOJ) and former attorney for the ACLU called Alliance Defending Freedom a “hate group” and told another attorney he would not want to be associated with him anymore for speaking at an event sponsored by the Christian legal nonprofit. 

“Honored to speak with Matt Sharp at Alliance Defending Freedom about the work we’re doing in Florida to protect kids from experimental medical interventions and to defend parental rights, all thanks to the leadership of Governor DeSantis,” Jason Weida, a former assistant U.S. attorney who now serves in Gov. Ron DeSantis’ administration wrote on LinkedIn. 

“Jason, this is a hate group. You’re speaking at a conference for a hate group. Are these the beliefs you hold? If so, then it’s time we end our professional association,” Eric Bruskin, assistant director of commercial litigation, wrote in response. He appears to have deleted his LinkedIn or made it private, as the current version of the comment is different from the one first reported by the Daily Signal. His photo is no longer shown or are his pronouns.
