STEP 1) Perform actions in the government that are utterly outrageous, such as stealing a presidential election, putting the entire nation on house arrest, proposing extreme gun control, and working with business to suppress free speech.

STEP 2) Wait for people to complain; wait for backlash.

STEP 3) Call it ‘Domestic Violent Extremism’. Ramp up further government repression.

STEP 4) Go to Step 2.

I noticed in the document that among the many examples of domestic terrorism used, the government did not list the violent activities that occurred in Seattle, New York, Portland, and Minneapolis, but made repeated references to the militia movement which had its hay day in the 90’s. I do not think it takes much imagination to see how federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies can be weaponized against political opponents in a manner like the steps taken by the IRS against the Tea Party movement. Here is an example of 10 of at least 30 broad phrases I identified and modified.

lurking in ideologies rooted in a perception of the superiority of the white race, in accord with factors presented by the political agenda.

perceived government overreach, in accord with the political agenda.

investing in policies and programs that foster civic engagement, in accord with the political agenda.

domestic terrorism is the result of a complex, multi–layered set of societal dynamics, in accord with factors presented through the political agenda.

reducing both supply and demand of recruitment materials by limiting widespread availability online, in accord with the political agenda.

enhancing media literacy and critical thinking skills, as a mechanism for strengthening user resilience to disinformation and misinformation, in accord with the political agenda. bolstering efforts that address domestic terrorism across the Federal Government and renewing partnerships with state, local, tribal, and territorial governments as well as civil society, the private sector, and beyond, according to factors defined by the political agenda.

appropriate, broader indicators and warnings, in accord with factors presented by the political agenda.

Department of Homeland Security will introduce a new systematic approach for utilizing pertinent external, non–governmental analysis and information that will provide enhanced situational awareness of today’s domestic terrorism threat, in accord with factors defined by the political agenda.

developing strategies to provide enhanced training on domestic terrorism iconography, symbology, and phraseology, and information on how to recognize potential indicators of mobilization to domestic terrorism, in accord with the political agenda.

Continuing to enhance the domestic terrorism–related information offered to the private sector, especially the technology sector, will facilitate more robust efforts outside the government to counter terrorists’ abuse of Internet–based communications platforms, in accord with the political agenda.

Never thought I would see the day that patriots were considered a threat.

Why are you surprised? This is a tradition that goes back to the 1700's.

-- Maybe they'll think twice about volunteering to be part of the SS. --

I don't think so. Part of the hiring protocol is to weed out "good people." As far as I know, all the SS were eager to serve the government. No balking going on there, and i sense no balk on the part of any federal government worker or agency.

Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said Monday on MSNBC’s “Andrea Mitchell Reports” that “domestic violence extremism is the greatest terrorist-related threat we face on the homeland.”

When is Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas going to report on BLM, Antifa's domestic terrorism?

Antifa and BLM have been at rioting and looting for several years. The destruction of property, take-over of buildings, creation of occupied lawless zones, burning, looting, and rioting have destroyed small businesses, government offices, resulted in deaths, and hundreds of millions of dollars in damage.

The "disturbance" on January 6, 2021, took place over a period of hours, after a peaceful rally by President Donald J. Trump.

Is Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas going to look into the role of the Democrat party, the FBI, Antifa, and BLM incitement to contribute to the disturbance? Or are they going to continue to pretend that 81 million Trump supporters are domestic terrorists?

Well, the headline is correct, but the terrorists are BLM, Antifa, and most of our current government.

remember they are saying this from a socialist totalitarian worldview

so they think what they are saying is true

in reality they mean constitution freedom loving people able to defend themselves from socialist overlords, are the greatest threat to their plans and goals

“The sigint nerds must be hearing a lot of chatter domestically. They know what they’re about to implement is not going to go over well.”

Declare half the country white supremacist domestic terrorists, and then be surprised when people refuse to board the cattlecars.

A**holes like Mayorkas are the greatest threat this country has ever faced.

If you want to find a right wing terrorist organization it is easy to find.

Comb the hallways of FBI HQ—they have “CIs” all lined up and ready to go...

Really great that we let this bozo’s family into the country as “refugees”, huh?

They moved to Beverly Hills where he was raised in luxury.

So SuperSpaniard now thinks he’s gonna stomp the gringos with their own government...the one he and his family never had a damn thing to do with.

Raise your hand if you think your name is already on a list that these evil people have.

I told my wife after the election that Biden would consider me a felon and sure enough.

Oh my. I have had the same conversation with my father in law. He gets so mad that he jumps out of his chair screaming profanity all the way to his bedroom. Funny thing is his son and daughter, my wife, are the two that get him going. I just sit back and smile.
