The Biden administration’s Department of Homeland Security announced on Wednesday that $20 million would be awarded to a number of organizations, including minority and LGBT groups, for “targeted violence and terrorism prevention.”
The grants, awarded in the name of “equity,” will be provided to 34 organizations through the Targeted Violence and Terrorism Prevention Grant Program for Fiscal Year 2023 and administered by the DHS Center for Prevention Programs and Partnerships and the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
In a Wednesday press release, the DHS said the funding aimed to help local communities “develop and strengthen their capabilities in combatting targeted violence and terrorism.”
The DHS reported that 41% of the $20 million would be awarded to “underserved populations,” a 16% increase from the previous year’s grant.
“Grant recipients include one Historically Black College and University (HBCU) among seven Minority Serving Institutions (MSI), one organization serving indigenous/Native American persons, one organization serving the LGBTQIA+, and five organizations serving rural communities,” the DHS stated.
The funds will create 50 new violence and terrorism prevention jobs and dozens of other related positions. The program aims to allow organizations “to develop sustainable, multidisciplinary targeted violence and terrorism prevention capabilities in local communities, to pilot innovative prevention approaches, and to identify prevention best practices that can be replicated in communities across the country.“

Geez! What a crony scam!
Vote pandering. Look for new vehicles and houses for the owners of these groups.
Underserved population — Let's start with "White People". These are the people who make the country work—keep the lights on, keep the shelves stocked, milk the cows, and fix the cars. In return they get only disrespect, and a constant squeeze to separate them from their earnings.
No group in America is more underserved than White People.
They can use the $$$ to buy mansions in Brentwood and Beverly Hills.
“Prevention? I signed that order because I thought it said Promotion!”
You have to hand it to the Dems, they reward their base. Republicans crap on theirs.
Yeah...they need to strike
just a few more billion and the country will officially be broke...as planned. Americans are not smart enough to operate this country. that’s why we needed a third obama term via Joe the destroyer. interesting how marxist liberals chide the sheep for not voting for their best interests but never tell the sheep that the marxists are cowing them into voting for the best interests of marxists, which is NOT in the best interest of Americans. “life is hard. it’s harder when you’re stupid” applies.
“You have to hand it to the Dems, they reward their base. Republicans crap on theirs.”
Truer words were never written.
no truer words have been recently posted. today’s republicans are nothing more than assistant marxists. just look at who they support and feel the hot air they expend. “it’s easier to fool someone than to convince them that they have been fooled”.
If even just 20% of the republicans in congress actively represented the base on a regular basis, they’d take over all 3 branches of gov.
Biden’s DHS awards millions to LGBT, minority groups for ‘targeted violence and terrorism prevention’
Department of Homo Sexuals?
.
Judging by all the transexuals that committed mass murder this past year, I’m guessing the Dems figure they need to stock up on arms and ammunition.

more Taxation without Representation
definitely time to Revolt
Democrat Kiddie Rapers will be well funded.
I love how “presidents” can just spend money willy nilly now since Obama.
Republicans take care of their big donors - who in turn are supposed to take care of GOP voters through providing better employment, offering enhanced products and services, and strengthening the American system by fostering the growth of a free economy.
(OK, you can stop laughing now...)
