WSJ: Mr. Biden has said he plans to make a priority of passing a new law against domestic terrorism
WSJ ^ | Jan 8 | By Ken Thomas and Sabrina Siddiqui

Mr. Biden has said he plans to make a priority of passing a law against domestic terrorism, and he has been urged to create a White House post overseeing the fight against ideologically inspired violent extremists and increasing funding to combat them.

Federal law defines domestic terrorism as dangerous and illegal acts intended to coerce a population or influence the government. While it can be charged in some states, no generic federal crime exists. Domestic terrorism spans extremist ideologies, but it has been predominantly a far-right phenomenon in recent decades, according to researchers.

Biden might first consider directing such “law” to Democrats and their Marxist allies in the media. If he and his media cronies think that what occurred on January 6th was bad, let them make the attempt at Patriot Act-Part 2, and they will rue the day.

You can’t pray, you can’t teach your kids religious messaging, what make you think they’d tolerate protest and political strategy?

The McCain wing has always been against the TEA party.

So we've had our Reichstag fire. Next step is the "Enabling Act". If he follows the recipe, by next summer will have the "Night of the Long Knives" purge of supporters (watch out, AOC) and other enemies who will also disappear, and then the next step after that is to have himself named supreme leader and have the armed forces swear a personal oath of obedience.

We've seen it all before.

Talk is cheap. Biden is a liar and I am taking a wait and see approach on him actually doing anything. For however long he has the chance.

Yep, any criticism of Harris/Biden will result in you losing your job, or going to jail for “incitement”.

This is the trial run.

There ain’t mush we can do about it because of the complicity of the GOP.

We have NO opposition party.

The communists HAVE captured BOTH parties.

Just as stated in the 1963 communist goals.

The law will consist on one sentence.

“All Conservatives and Christians are now deemed as domestic terrorists and may be shot on sight.”

Probably pass unanimously . . .

So he’s finally gonna outlaw the Republican Party. That may save Patriots a lot of work. When a new right-wing party comes into being, the GOP won’t even exist, let alone be in the way.

Antifa and BLM will be exempt.

We live in a communist country now where saying anything bad about Captain Dementia will be seen as a hate crime and I know more then a few liberals who would love to be the brownshirts that turn people in for daring to speak out...basically the conservatives in this country are now Hong Kong

Antifa and BLM, or course, are not defined as “domestic terrorists”, as ex post facto laws cannot be passed in this country.

Here we go. They aren’t going to waste any time. The crack down on real Americans will begin immediately.

In other words, they are going to come after all of us. Get ready, even you ass kissers who want to clutch your pearls over what happened at the Capitol, they will come for you too.

We’re all enemies of the state in their eyes, remember Nancy has already said so.

True, punitive attacks are going to ramp up on all Trump supporters and anything Trump.They are SCARED of 80 million Trump supporters. They just do not realize how energized we are. Attacks will only strengthen our resolve. Their attacks will energize 80 million Trump voters even further, a stolen, corrupted election will never be forgotten. As far as I am concerned, the incoming administration is illegitimate, anti- American, and as time will show- pure evil.
