DHS issues nationwide terrorism alert ...”Trump supporters

Don't see anything in the Department of Homeland Security's nationwide terrorism alert explicitly mentioning "Trump-supporters," as claimed by the headline.

Regards,

MSM still trying to suggest McCaughey, the brown hoodie guy at the Capitol, was a “Republican”, but I have seen no proof of that whatsoever:

24 Jan: Herald Mail Media: Man captured on an infamous US Capitol riot video lived an innocuous life in Connecticut; Patrick Edward McCaughey faces years in jail
by Edmund H. Mahony Hartford Courant
Ridgefield is Connecticut’s most affluent town by some calculations. Median income among 8,000 citizens is about $130,000 and median property value is about $666,000. ***There are a lot of Republicans in town, including McCaughey, his father and some of the young men with whom McCaughey played high school football.

After high school, McCaughey went to work for his father, who is a licensed pilot, boat owner, real estate broker and building contractor, specializing in single family homes. McCaughey was arrested at a home owned by his father just over the border from Ridgefield in South Salem, New York, where he was quarantining as a COVID-19 precaution after his trip to the Capitol. In some of the videos that capture McCaughey, he is unmasked.

After quarantine, he planned to return to his mother’s home, where he lived with her, his sister and his sister’s boyfriend, according to disclosures in court by his federal public defender, Jason Ser. His father, with whom McCaughey is said to be in regular contact, lives nearby in New Canaan...

“As far as employment goes, Mr. McCaughey, unfortunately, has been affected like many others by the COVID pandemic,” Ser said in court in an unsuccessful attempt to arrange release on bond. “He has been unemployed since late 2019. He relies on his mother for support and his father. As I mentioned he had been prior to that as carpenter, handy man, call it what you will. But he has worked for his father since his late teenaged years.”
“He has a couple of thousand dollars to his name in savings,” Ser said. “He has always lived with his parents and continues to rely on them for support.”...

Ser said McCaughey is being prosecuted based on fewer that two minutes of video, while other video evidence — some referenced in the government’s criminal complaint — suggests he tried to help the officer he is accused of assaulting...

That’s why I put it in “quotes”....because it’s pretty clear how it’s worded as “upset with election results” it ain’t Biden supporters.
