DHS Warns Americans That Dropping COVID Restrictions Might Lead To ‘Acts Of Violence’ By ‘Extremists’

Daily Caller ^

[TigerClaws]

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) warned Americans on Monday that as COVID-19 restrictions are dropped, there is an increased risk for “acts of violence” such as mass shootings.

“The United States Remains in a heightened threat environment fueled by several actors, including an online environment filled with false or misleading narratives and conspiracy theories,” the DHS warned.

“As COVID-19 restrictions continue to decrease nationwide, increased access to commercial and government facilities and the rising number of mass gatherings could provide increased opportunities for individuals looking to commit acts of violence to do so, often with little or no warning,” the bulletin says.

“Meanwhile. COVID-19 mitigation measures – particularly COVID-19 vaccine and mask mandates – have been used by domestic violent extremists to justify violence since 2020 and could continue to inspire these extremists to target government, healthcare, and academic institutions that they associate with those measures,” it continues.

The DHS also warned that some extremists are “spreading false and misleading narratives about 5G cellular technology.” (RELATED: New York Rep. Maloney Says Government Is Ready ‘To Give People Their Lives Back,’ Thanks Biden)

Several blue states recently announced the end of certain coronavirus restrictions as cases fall. New Jersey announced the end of its mask mandate for school children, while New York is slated to end its indoor mask mandate Wednesday.

The DHS warned in August that individuals opposed to COVID-19 related restrictions could pose a terrorist threat, warning the risk of attacks were “exacerbated by impacts of the ongoing global pandemic, including grievances over public health safety measures and perceived government restrictions.”

“Imprisoning you in your own homes, as well as destroying the economy, and with it, the middle class? Turning people from self sufficient to wiping out millions of jobs and shifting people from middle class to poor?”

Phase #2 of destroying the middle class is inflation.

Ummm.... Won’t it do the exact opposite of that?? Do they really think we are that &^%$*#@ stupid??

[dforest]

Yes, and Matt Bracken has an incident like that in his books.

First one maybe? Am I correct?

Harris will be the first female POTUS, and Hillary will have missed her moment. OK. That’s the only bright side I can think of.

It gets much brighter when you consider that Harris took the Monica Lewinsky route to the Oval Office.

Try Tractor Supply. You can save your farm animals, but humans must die- is the State of Ohio’s policy. For about three days De Whine decreed ivermectin not be sold for humans. The official policy was reversed, while the unofficial policy was to continue to obey the policy, including doctors losing their licenses to practice medicine in Ohio.

How are we supposed to have a revolution with all these Covid restrictions?

Absolutely spot on.

You can stop those annoying calls by simply... ...renewing your car warranty now.

ROFL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MeneMeneTekelUpharsin]

So, DHS is looking for another excuse to lock everyone down — for their own good, of course — to keep them away from potential violence — such as gangs and terrorists coming in at the wide open southern border, where hordes of illegals have come across (estimates of 2 million last year), etc. ...

Stop, stop...I can't take it any more! Bawhahahahaaah hahahahhahhaaaa....oh man....

I read this as code that soros and the true terrosts in our country, antifa, have something planned to distrupt any peaceful gathering to demean citizens and divert attention from lgb’s abysmal performance.

I know.
They even sell a Covid vax for cows. What is it? Ivermectin.

Unfortunately the 20th amendment says otherwise.

The order of succession specifies that the office passes to the vice president; if the vice presidency is simultaneously vacant, or if the vice president is also incapacitated, the powers and duties of the presidency pass to the speaker of the House of Representatives, president pro tempore of the Senate, and then Cabinet secretaries, depending on eligibility.

No.	Office[3]	Incumbent	Party
1	Vice President	Kamala Harris		Democratic
2	Speaker of the House of Representatives	Nancy Pelosi		Democratic
3	President pro tempore of the Senate	Patrick Leahy		Democratic
4	Secretary of State	Antony Blinken		Democratic
5	Secretary of the Treasury	Janet Yellen		Democratic

IMO, DHS, the agency designed to protect us from terrorism has indeed become IT in itself. I’m just waiting for Xiden to tell DOJ to tell the FBI to put up a picture of a typical anti-mandate citizen in the post office as Most Wanted #1.

My beeber is stuned!

Every patriot on facebook should start using beeber or beeb or even -horrors!- beep instead of honk.

I'm not on farcebook, is there anyone who will lead the charge?

al baby, what say you?

Natural Born Citizen applies to VP. So by way of the 20th amendment, the same exact way that obambam circumvented the requirement, he/she is DEEMED to be qualified as soon as they take the office.

The loophole that obambam drove through is that it’s the responsibility of SCOTUS to look into qualification of the PRESIDENT ELECT. So if they wanna throw the first elected black prez dude on his hear, all that rioting is gonna be on their block. He knew it and they knew it. Now, NBC is a co-opted constitutional issue. We are officially an oligarchy.

My wish was AGAINST it.

Here’s a hypothetical I posted at Intrade, which generated some insightful conversation.

https://bb.intrade.com/intradeForum/posts/list/555/2279.page

Here’s a set of hypotheticals for you. Let’s say you’re a loyal Roman republican with 5 buddies watching Caesar cross the Rubicon with his army, and you know full well what that means for the Roman republic. What is your duty at that point?

Let’s say you’re a loyal German who believes in democracy and you see Hitler making tanks instead of VW’s as he has promised the peepull. What is your duty at that point?

Let’s say you’re a loyal american constitutionalist and you see a marxist usurper cheating his way to the presidency, you file a lawsuit and it gets thrown out of SCOTUS within a week of the inauguration. What is your duty at that point?

I know, I know... no one ever really addresses a good hypothetical. Here’s an example: If the sky were green, would more people have green eyes? Many people say stuff like, “of course the sky ain’t green” or they go into the physics behind why the sky ain’t green or they ask you why you aren’t in with the yellow-eyed crowd or they say green-eyed people are just monsters or all kinds of things, but they never really address the hypothetical. So I shouldn’t hold out any hope that you’d be different.

But at least I’m on record with trying to stop this constitutional travesty and if I wander back to my farm in the highlands rather than continue the fight through further futile Roman Empire politics, that’s my business. The only guy who survived in that movie of ‘300’ was the one whose job it was to tell the history.

If such people think that people like you, me and others who want the truth are idiots and kooks, what does that say about their desire to have the truth?
***What does it say about Free Republic that they’re allowed to operate in their constitutionally agnostic (or should we say obviously anti-constitutionalist) tactics & perspectives? The guys posting chemtrail conspiracies & Vince Foster nonsense & other Arkancides & illuminati &etc. were given a wider berth than this. I don’t freeping get it.

BTW, I think the answer to the 3 hypotheticals is the same: The duty of the protagonist is
1) to survive,
2) get away from the oncoming trouble,
3) and find a way to PRESERVE the history.

Survive. Flee. Write.

I’m afraid the 2nd option is no longer available to us.
