Homeland Security warns of 'increasing but modest' threat of violence from Trump conspiracy
ABC News ^ | August 6, 2021 | Luke Barr

Posted on 08/07/2021 8:39:00 AM PDT by John W

The Department of Homeland Security said Friday they have observed "an increasing but modest level of activity online" by people who are calling for violence in response to baseless claims of 2020 election fraud and related to the conspiracy theory that former President Donald Trump will be reinstated.

"Some conspiracy theories associated with reinstating former President Trump have included calls for violence if desired outcomes are not realized," according to a DHS Office of Intelligence and Analysis bulletin obtained by ABC News.

There is no evidence that shows there was widespread voter fraud in the 2020 election.

So ABC news gets to decide that there is no evidence (debunked?) ...

Sorry, your not Pravda (Truth) or Izvestia (News).

As they used to say, Pravda nye Izvestia i Izestia nye Pravda.

Soviets got cynical over time and that is happening here one lie/drip at a time.

I sense PANIC.
—————-
Of course. Panic and fear, from the left, and the ones that have bought into the “ vaccines” , the various three letter .gov agencies under Slow Joe’s spell, and the demoncrats. Real panic starts if they mandate the toxic vaccines, the push back and non compliance will be historic. The thousands upon thousands Americans have had enough. Their agenda, like the vaccines are a failure, and many are waking up.

It would be correct to say a hundred times more violence occurs in Chicago on a weekend than whatever occurred out of the 6th of January.

Maybe the Homeland Security folks ought to do a weekend in Chicago....to assess things there.

[[There is no evidence that shows there was widespread voter fraud in the 2020 election]]

They’ve gone from ‘no Evidence of any fraud to now ‘no evidence of widespread fraud’. When the audits show fraud in several states, the scum o. The left will switch to ‘Republicans are trying to take a few small incidents of known, proven fraud and make it appear as though it was nationwide’

If ABC News & Luke Barr were honest (small hope for that), they would preface the above blanket statement with a proper modifier like "We see no evidence at this time ..." When major efforts are put into resisting legal inquiries into visible discrepancies that appear to be defrauding legitimate voting procedures, the authors betray an obvious bias.

Then again ABC is owned by Disney and Disney is an expert at suspending disbelief and spinning fantasies!

After law school, Mayorkas worked as an Assistant United States Attorney and was appointed the United States attorney for the Central District of California in Los Angeles during the administration of President Bill Clinton and George W. Bush, where he oversaw the prosecution of high-profile criminal cases.

I realize that as the person heading agencies, it’s all about management and being able to solve problems, ie...the person that runs the FAA doesn’t necessarily need to be a jet mechanic or pilot.

That being said, does anyone think it’s possible to have someone that runs DHS that has some actual experience in security, law enforcement, military operations closely related to security and law enforcement?

Mayorkas is nothing but a Leftist lawyer, his whole professional career. And that ideology trickles down. Hell, even under President Trump it seemed like most of leadership was at the least, Left of Center.

No evidence of voter fraud? Are they on drugs?

There is a tsunami of evidence of fraud if these lefties would bother to look, which they refuse to do.

It wasn’t widespread. It was focused in a few limited districts where swinging the vote would swing the election. Fraud in 20 counties out of the some 3,243 US counties is a pretty small fraction. Of course if you measure total jiggered votes in the millions in those counties it doesn’t look so small.

Of course they are going to state that. After all the appointed leaders of the Department of Homeland Security are ALL Obama camp ideologues.

Just once I wish there would be an element of truth to the lies and disinformation coming from the media. Just once I would love to be surprised to see that actually in fact there is a right wing militia type group out there that would and could overthrow the fraudulent election and restore Trump to power and restore America to greatness.

And just once I wish that Nigerian prince would finally get around to transferring the $1.5 million into my account as he said he would.
