House Republicans Reveal Whistleblower Documents Exposing FBI Use of Counterterrorism Tactics Against Parents

A letter from Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee to U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland reveals the lawmakers have received documents from a whistleblower that state the FBI is using counterterrorism tactics to investigate parents considered to be potential “domestic terrorists” as they voice concerns about education in their local school districts.

An FBI agent provided a copy of the internal email to several Republican lawmakers, citing concerns that it could open the door for the bureau to collect information on parents voicing their opposition to local school policies during meetings. https://t.co/bM9Q2n28Rg via @WSJ — JamesVGrimaldi (@JamesVGrimaldi) November 16, 2021

The documents, which state the FBI is adding “threat tags” to parents, appear to contradict Garland’s testimony on October 21 during a House Judiciary Committee hearing in which he said the Department of Justice and the FBI were not using counterterrorism tools to investigate parents at school board meetings.

A letter signed by Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH), ranking member of the House Judiciary, to Garland Tuesday states:

We are now in receipt of a protected disclosure from a Department whistleblower showing that the FBI’s Counterterrorism Division is compiling and categorizing threat assessments related to parents, including a document directing FBI personnel to use a specific “threat tag” to track potential investigations. This new information calls into question the accuracy and completeness of your sworn testimony.

These are tactics of a Communist state like the old USSR or like China. They are not disappearing the parents yet, though. The Gulag or the bullet to the back of the head are not yet.

Using anti terrorism databases and search engines? I wonder if the parents are on no fly lists yet? Getting security clearances yanked?

Obviously, not now…

Well, now that congress “learned” of the marxist intrinsic evil murdering America

1. They can write a “bad boys” letter 2. Make a few televised appearances for their “angst” of the treasonous DOJ/FBI/DHS
3. Wash their hands of the subject
4. Call it all good
5. Go back to anti-American, out-of-control socialist/corporatist spending
6. Continue making government our absolite totalitarian sovereign
7. Run for Congress again.

I would expect this to happen daily to begin cleaning up the swamps in the alphabet agencies. Or, they are still dirty, and this was a one off.

“...FBI Using Counterterrorism Tools...”

Like the tools used in support of the Garland, Tex. Islamic attack?

Or maybe the tools used to stop the Boston Marathon bombing?

Meritless Garland IS a Tool.
