CNN's Wajahat Ali: FBI Now Considers Theory Of A "Deep State" A Domestic Terror Threat
RCP Video ^ | 10-8-2019 | Ian Schwartz

Posted on 10/09/2019 4:52:05 AM PDT by Sir Napsalot

On Monday's edition of 'CNN Tonight' with host Don Lemon, CNN contributor Wajahat Ali reported the FBI now considers conspiracies theories such as a deep state to be a domestic terror threat.

(snip)

WAJAHAT ALI, CNN CONTRIBUTOR, CONTRIBUTING OP-ED WRITER, THE NEW YORK TIMES: "...Trump said, don't believe your eyes and don't believe what you listen. And this is like a dictator playbook 101. You first attack the truth, Don Lemon. You attack all the institutions. ..Because he says that the press is the enemy of the people.

You just saw Ron Johnson, Senator, Republican, who by the way knows better because he sits on the Senate Homeland Security Committee, and in 2016, he is the one who wrote a bipartisan letter asking then- president of Ukraine to crack down on corruption.

So actually that Senator has actually bolstered Biden and the Democrats and debunked the conspiracy theory because he has himself said that Biden and western allies were putting pressure on Ukraine to go against the prosecutor general, who was not going against corruption, right? But then you saw the Faustian bargain right there.

How so many Republican men and women have sold out their honor, their dignity, and I will say their country for Trump. He is repeating a deep state conspiracy theory. That is QAnon. Which by the way, and this is what really serious, the FBI according to a Yahoo document that they uncovered, is saying QAnon and conspiracy theories like the one mentioned by Senator Johnson, about this deep state, about law enforcement against Trump, is now a domestic terror threat. (emphasis mine)

More leftist projection, people. The state-sponsored terrorist group, AKA the FBI, has designated ordinary Americans as what the FBI is - a gang of terrorists.

We are a threat - to them. They are the un-American, anti-American, leftist/fascist “deep state.” So {expletive}-yeah I’m a threat - to their plans to “fundamentally transform” America. No way. I will uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic.

Very well said.

We, The Deep State (a.k.a. “ FBI”), hereby declare our opponents terrorists.

Go ahead and arrest Trump, then, Deep Staters.

They view men who have served in the military and don’t swallow the Leftist agenda as a threat.
.......
I recall the 0bammy announcing a new task force to target vets., especially the white veterans.

“Members of the American Border Patrol/American Patrol”

Glenn Spencer should get a good laugh out of that.

One guy and a web site, going up against the entire RINO/Commie establishment trying to abolish the border.

That’s what Chief Obunga was terrified of.

Hilarious.

The subcommittee heard from multiple victims of mass shootings, who shared their stories and asked the congressmen to take legislative action to eliminate the tax benefits given to nonprofit groups that may proliferate hate and discrimination. No legislation has been proposed at the moment.

They suspect that such legislation would not pass in the senate.

All these Marxists don’t have “Marxist” written on their foreheads. They look like us and talk like us but they are not like us at all. They are parasitic worms burrowing where they don’t belong.

So criticizing the government via "conspiracy theories" encourages violence? Therefore nobody, including ordinary citizens, are supposed to oppose the deep state's illegal activities? Note that this FBI memo urges "social media" companies to "remove, regulate, or counter potentially harmful conspiratorial content."

The Leftist propaganda merchants are panicked about their coup plot being revealed byAG Barr’s report,and are desperately trying to discredit it in advance.
Pray that their treachery will be recognized and condemned by your fellow Americans.

The so called deep state is nothing more than a reference to the entrenched bureaucracy which is certainly not a conspiracy theory.

I think there is the strong potential for a domestic terror threat from people who realize that we live in a state of “failure of the Republic to adhere to the rule of law”. The fact that the Deep State is crippling a Presidency and we no longer have a Free Press, but an AmericanPravda that is a complete soapbox for the statist radical Socialists....

We are in dire times. There will be a rebellion if this keeps up and people begin to realize that they have little means to affect change in this Republic and there freedom is no longer as it once was.
