WASHINGTON (AP) — The upcoming midterm elections are emerging as a rallying point for domestic extremists and foreign adversaries seeking to disrupt the U.S. and incite violence, the Department of Homeland Security warned Monday.
Unsubstantiated fraud claims, which have haunted the country since the 2020 presidential election, may be used to fuel unrest and doubts about the elections to decide control of Congress, DHS officials said as the agency issued a new national terrorism advisory.
A senior DHS official, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss the terrorism advisory before its release, told reporters that part of their objective may be to sow discord and undermine credibility in democratic institutions by promoting misinformation about upcoming races.
The alert warns that the months leading up to the midterms could see extremists using online forums and other methods to call for violence at democratic institutions, candidates, party offices, election and poll workers.
“The best way to resist such efforts is to recognize them for what they are: efforts to weaken the fabric of American society,” said Thomas Warrick, a former senior DHS official who is now with the Atlantic Council. “More will be coming as the United States heads towards the Nov. 8, 2022, election.”

I guess that we will have to call off the elections in order to save our democracy. /s
“You’d better vote for us or there will be violence”.
“Notice how calm the riots have been since we’ve been in power? You want that to continue don’t you?”
Ass Press conveniently forgets the Russian dossier, the pee-soaked sheets, the phony impeachments, the show trials, FBI corruption, congressional corruption, media corruption that have been been systematically assaulting the country in their own ridiculous scribblings. Any violence they see will be violence they promoted.
The Left will create a Jan 6 of their own with a murder of their own complete with FIB investigation.
You have to admit, they do get ahead of the curve on SOME things. WAY ahead.
In other “news”, gas just went up 20 cents in the dead of winter, and it’s a bit early for the “swichover” or the traditional springtime refinery fires. It must be the robust economy. Or something..,
” A senior DHS official explained, on the condition of anonymity “.
In other words Associated Press, on a slow news day, is doing what it does best.
That is, attempt to prop up secular socialism.
Very interesting, they put out something like this before the last election.

P
All Propaganda.
Has the doh-J started supplying arms to pantyfa and $blm yet?
They’re anticipating backlash from the massive voter fraud that’s being planned.
Translation: We have to stop the MAGA rallies.
“A senior DHS official, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss the terrorism advisory before its release, told reporters that part of their objective may be to sow discord and undermine credibility in democratic institutions by promoting misinformation about upcoming races.”
Goebbels ain’t dead. The fascists at DHS are at work. The wish is mother to the deed.
Boarding up shop windows two weeks before the election in case the republican wins and inevitable riots/looting break out is a solid voter turnout strategy for the democrats. Expect to see it again.
Freegards
The Russians aren’t mentioned in the article. Surely they are scheming to undermine the most popular President in world history.
“this means that the Media-Dem Party has already set in motion the BIG STEAL again.”
Exactly!
Remember all the warnings about “extremist violence” during Summer 2020 while antifa and BLM were burning $2 billion of property?
Nope, neither do I.
The Left [Communists] will not give up Power just because they lose an election. They will have to be evicted. It will take one hell of a knock down drag out bar room brawl. You can believe that or not. As evidenced by the steal of the 2020 election. We don’t have what it takes to eject the Communists [Left] from Power.
Give you one guess who will kick off election violence.
“wow are they calling most of America extremists?”
You are uncommonly perceptive. That is EXACTLY the designation that is going to be placed on the historically conservative, God-fearing, sober, and industrious members of the US citizenry.
So if you are going to be hung for a wolf, then a wolf be. Make the few who are fiercely clinging to their positions of privilege and clandestine power defend their positions, and lure, or drive, them into the open where they shall be banished from the field, retiring in shame and cowardice.
