The FBI's Snipe Hunts
American Thinker ^ | 3 May, 2023 | John Green

Posted on 05/03/2023 5:19:29 AM PDT by MtnClimber

When I was in the Boy Scouts, we used to send new scouts on a snipe hunt during their first campout. It was a search through the woods for a made-up creature that didn’t exist. The exercise was a good-natured joke to welcome them to the troop. (Note: Snipes are a real bird, but that doesn’t change the joke).

Snipe hunting is also a gag the FBI plays on itself. Only the FBI calls the snipes “white supremacist domestic terrorists” -- which are apparently harder to find than Boy Scout snipes.

The feds use the “white supremacist” qualifier to avoid catching any BLM, Antifa, pro-abortion, or LGBTQ terrorists in their dragnet. But parents, and others of a semi-fascist (i.e., MAGA) political persuasion are fair game.

At the request of the National School Boards Association (NSBA), the FBI investigated parents who protested at school board meetings. Surely there’s a criminal statute against that. Congress just received the FBI’s report on this initiative and it is not confidence inspiring.

The FBI investigated a total of 25 individuals and organizations for the subversive act of exercising their freedom of speech. Six of those cases were referred to the FBI Counterterrorism Division, and one case received a full-scale investigation -- rather like that garage door pull that 15 agents investigated to ensure that a racist knot wasn’t used. One of the people investigated was -- gasp -- a gun owner! Apparently, there’s a 2nd Amendment exclusion in the FBI oath to defend the Constitution.

The FBI’s report to Congress states that they found no credible threat.

SNIP

Even though the FBI can’t find any actual snipes, it is determined to make it look like it does. Congress has discovered that the FBI has been cooking its domestic terrorism books.

Does the FBI worry that they look so blatantly partisan in favor of the evil of the left?

Did the Stasi or the KGB or the Gestapo worry that they looked ‘so blatantly partisan in favor of the evil of the left’?
I think not.

I'm sure they are terrified. What would happen if the media got ahold of this info. By media, I of course mean the real media - CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC, NYT, WaPo, etc. - not American Thinker. Can you imagine how much trouble the FBI would be in? < /SARC>

We need McCarthy, the so-far useless House Speaker, to arrange to have ALL the FBI personnel who have guns and arrest authority listed on a public forum with picture, name, age, and address so neighbors can keep an eye on the government SNITCHES!

So food plants and farms are being burnt and bombed and trains are being derailed and the FBI instead looks for the boogieman...
