The US Department of Homeland Security declared a nationwide terrorism alert Wednesday, citing the potential threat from domestic anti-government extremists opposed to Joe Biden as president.
"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 department said.
The National Terrorism Advisory System Bulletin said a heightened threat of attack "will persist in the weeks following the successful presidential inauguration," which took place on January 20.
"DHS does not have any information to indicate a specific, credible plot," it said.
"However, violent riots have continued in recent days and we remain concerned that individuals frustrated with the exercise of governmental authority and the presidential transition... could continue to mobilize a broad range of ideologically-motivated actors to incite or commit violence."
The alert said there had been mounting threats since last year from domestic violent extremists motivated by Covid-19 restrictions, Biden's defeat of Donald Trump in the November election, police brutality and illegal immigration.
DHS said these motivations could remain in place for the coming months and that the January 6 attack by Trump supporters on Congress could embolden extremists "to target elected officials and government facilities."
More than 150 people, including members of armed extremist groups, have been arrested since the attack, which has been branded as an insurrection.
The department urged the public to report suspicious activity and threats of violence.

AND DO NOTICE THAT IN THEIR DESCRIPTIONS OF domestic ‘terrorists’ that they insinuate mostly that they are Trump supporters upset with the election outcome, or right wingers who don’t fall in line and believe everything coming out of the health department about covid-
They even suggest that groups like antifa and blm were ‘peacefully exercising their first amendment rights’ all aroudn the country (burning down businesses, attacking white folks, attacking anyone wearing MAGA stuff- but nope- the left felt all that was fine because these folks were ‘peacefully trying to bring about a ‘much needed cultural change’), until violent right wing offenders came on the scenes and attacked them-
This is gonna be one heck of a long 4 years +
Still going on in Portland and parts of Washington. Attacks by Antifa on Democrat headquarters and “F•••• Biden” spray painted on the door. But nothing political. /s
Is this just baloney to justify keeping Washington DC militarized until the impeachment farce is over?
Government of the slaves, by the government, for the government..
Silence is Patriotic.
Resistance is Futile.
Hope is Criminal.
Dissent will be Punished and Ridiculed.
Obey, Citizen, or be Cancelled Forthwith.
(And don’t let us catch you praying!)
The obviously-cheated election would seem to indicate that there are a LOT more of “us” than there are of “them.” That’s why they feel like they have to issue “terror alerts” about average Americans.
These are old ‘60s and ‘70s “activists” with a limited shelf life and their Adderalled, Prozac’d and Ritalin’d kids and grandkids, whom they’ve managed to tear away from their video games to riot a little bit. They probably have a limited shelf life as well.
It’s ONLY the media that props up their ridiculously-antiquated “agenda.”
Yeah, violent riots have continued in recent days—from Antifa!
A Communist Purge Is Underway & Nothing Is Being Done About It!
Boxcar standing-room assignments will start being issued very soon...
Be patient...
Cutting into the line will not be permitted...
Trump supporters, conservative or patriotic website participants, Caucasians, and other acknowledged domestic terrorists will be given top priority...
We should expect a lot of these “alerts” over the next four years, followed by mass arrests and sham trials. Mostly will consist of Trump supporters, gun advocates and free speech promoters. And lots of new prisons. Count on it.
I don’t understand. I thought if we avoided protesting and stuck to angry Internet posts they wouldn’t label the right extremists. It’s almost as if they will push the agenda even if the right sits back and does nothing. Imagine that.
Some people did something.
Yahoo IS ABC.
What a load of manipulative cr@p.
