Law enforcement veterans say the Capitol siege was just the tip of the iceberg of the 'cult-like' threat far-right extremists pose to the US

**SNIP**

Frank Montoya, Jr., a recently retired FBI special agent, told Insider that the Capitiol siege indicates far-right extremism is a "fundamental" threat to national security, even more so than foreign terror groups. Indeed, many of these extremists are white, male US citizens, some with backgrounds in the military, and are less likely to be profiled as a terror threat than those of Middle Eastern descent in the post-9/11 era.

"The threat we're facing right now is not only real but deeply embedded - and cult-like - in our society," Montoya said. "Look at how many military and law enforcement types were involved in the Capitol assault and how many people in Congress supported the effort to overturn a free and fair election on January 6."

If the attack had come from ISIS or Al-Qaeda, "there would be blue-ribbon commissions, legislation, billions of dollars and thousands of employees from across the government thrown at the problem," he added. "The First Amendment and civil liberties are paramount, but far-right extremism isn't about that. It's about insurrection."

The Department of Homeland Security issued an advisory this week warning of a "heightened threat environment across the United States which DHS believes will persist in the weeks following the successful Presidential Inauguration."

"Information suggests that some ideologically-motivated violent extremists with objections to the exercise of governmental authority and the presidential transition, as well as other perceived grievances fueled by false narratives, could continue to mobilize to incite or commit violence," the advisory said, adding that the DHS expects these threats to persist through early 2021.

We came in contact with his people around town and saw him occasionally. His treatment of women and children was common knowledge. Don’t raise such scum to the status of a conservative martyr. It’s like holding up the scum the left does in cop shootings.

Sonam Sheth , a good American name.......

Buahgahahaha!

If what is being perceieved is a cult, our nation then was founded by a “cult”

The left controls the media, shucks the shell off an Islamofascist and has her write an article about cults, when Islamofascism jihadist cults have killed thousands of Americans? Seth is a propagandist, not a journalist.

Buahahahahahahaha!

This is from one of the so called cultists who founded our nation, And the left knows we are coming for them. Let them caterwaul ! Its the sound of Victory.

***********************************************

By the socalled Cultist. Samuel Admas, Philadelphia State House,Aug 1st 1776

“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

Among the natural rights of the colonists are these: first, a right to life; secondly, to liberty; thirdly to property; together with the right to support and defend them in the best manner they can.

The liberties of our country, the freedom of our civil Constitution, are worth defending at all hazards; and it is our duty to defend them against all attacks. We have received them as a fair inheritance from our worthy ancestors: they purchased them for us with toil and danger and expense of treasure and blood, and transmitted them to us with care and diligence. It will bring an everlasting mark of infamy on the present generation, enlightened as it is, if we should suffer them to be wrested from us by violence without a struggle, or to be cheated out of them by the artifices of false and designing men.

Samuel Adams

********************************************************

If DHS can’t tell the difference between patriotism and crime, we need to straighten them out. We will send them a memo.

As for Seth, She can go back to her homeland and twist her legs around the nearest Islamofascist lamp post. She has no place in America if she does not support and defend the Constitution.

Recently retired - recently shoved out? Who gives a crap what a non-active “official” liar says?

What about Auntiefaz and BurnLootMurder? Just “ideas” that left a trail of 3 or 4 dozen deaths, countless injuries, arsons, and $2 billion in damage?
