White supremacists and racist domestic terrorists pose the largest threat of violence in the United States amid nationwide protests across the country, according to a new intelligence bulletin.
The bulletin which was sent to local law enforcement by the FBI, Department of Homeland Security and National Counterterrorism Center and reported by ABC News warns of threats by left-wing and anarchist groups as well.
But it barely mentions Antifa as a potential violent group though federal lawmakers have called for the loosely affiliated movement to be labeled a terror group amid nationwide protests against police brutality.
We assess the greatest threat of lethal violence continues to emanate from lone offenders with racially or ethnically motivated violent extremist ideologies and [domestic violent extremists] with personalized ideologies, the bulletin states, according to ABC News.
In addition, militias and right-wing racist groups are seeking to start a second American Civil War by targeting protests, according to the report.
Militia extremists and [groups] who advocate a belief in the superiority of the white race have sought to bring about a second civil war, often referred to as a Boogaloo by intentionally instigating violence at First Amendment-protected activities, the bulletin states.
Widespread media attention and online posts be extremists are likely to contribute to potential violent acts, it adds.
The memo adds that left-wing and anarchist groups pose the greatest threat to police officers and the potential destruction of police and government property.
Anarchist extremists continue to pose the most significant threat of targeted assaults against police, as well as targeting government buildings and police vehicles for damage, sometimes with improvised incendiary devices, the bulletin states.
The document only mentions the existence of Antifa once in a footnote, according to the report, noting that some anarchists self identify as Antifa.

I have never found or seen one in 60 years.
I have been attacked by Hispanic and Black racists.
All were trying to impress their friends while I was minding my own business.
I don’t back down....ever.
BLM IS RACIST
In my lifetime, the only white supremacist I’ve seen were on TV shows or in the news about the Klan.
*facepalm*
I have lived all over the country, North, South and West.
The only white supremacist I ever met was in New Jersey.
He was very hateful toward black people. And a native.
The FBI says LOL, LOL, LOL,
This is so stupid, I would guess this is actually a consequence of the flawed methodology they use to assess risk rather than an intentional bias. Instead of using statistics and consequence analysis, they use a color coded table. On one axis is “severity” and on the other is “likelihood” The likelihood of anarcho-communists (e.g. BLM/Antifa) committing violent acts is probably judged as “likely”, but severity is “negligible”, much like the daily murders in Chicago... which leads to a rating of low overall risk to national security. On the otherhand, the likelihood of any right wing group starting shooting over this is probably “seldom” to a left-winger (unbiased would probably say very unlikely), but if this is the spark of of a major race war, the consequence could be judged “catastrophic”. This results in a rating of “high” risk.
The same one that "lost" the 302s for Gen. Flynn, right?????
No problemo, they'll track down, jail and punish all those vicious right wingers, otherwise, they'll soon be running around saluting the flag, helping little old ladies across the street and serving cookies at the church socials, right after they running all those anarchists out of town instead of letting them loot and burn down all those little pizza shops moms and dads put their life savings into!
the FBI needs to be disbanded and rebuilt (and prolly rebranded)
the dude that killed Captain Dorn down in St Louis is definitely not a white supremacist
Yep. That’s our FBI.
After two weeks of nationwide rioting, arson, assault, murder, and vandalism from the left, the FBI warns us of violence from the right. What wonderful timing. If there IS violence from the right, it will be over frustration that the government tolerates so much violence and intimidation from the left.
“White supremacists and racist domestic terrorists pose the largest threat of violence in the United States amid nationwide protests across the country, according to a new intelligence bulletin.....”
This is bull. The left is much more violent and numerous.
The White supremacists have been crushed as large organizations. What is left are crazies seeking attention.
We know who the FBI leftists are talking about.
Patriots. With guns. The real threat to the leftist coup.

He was a latino.
Uh...dont think it is white nazis that are holding seattle hostage right now
[How Clintonesque.]
No kidding.
We are officially in The Twilight Zone these days.
Have been for awhile, too.
Yes, it’s the white supremacists that are burning and looting*. SMH
*I consider Antifa to be a far-Left radical group of a different stripe.
Mene, Mene, Tekel, Upharsin.
sigh
This is like a Leslie Nielsen movie where he says nothing is happening while total chaos reigns in the background. Wray is a total terrorist/communist traitor collaborator and MUST BE FIRED IMMMEDIATELY.
The Deep State has spoken.
Who are we to believe, them or our lyin’ eyes.
The FIB needs to be cleaned out. With a flamethrower.
