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.”
Top-notch post.
because they fear some who shake of the fog of the narrative will realize they have been mislead by their government for years and have lost their own lives, sanity, and prosperity to a bunch of greedy oligarchs in the hip pocket of the drug companies.
There will be a lot of nasty truth unleashed as restrictions are dropped.
How many doctors, nurses, police, fireman, teachers, down to store clerks lost their jobs over the jab?
How many people died because our government banned early intervention drugs?
Oh believe me, it would not be just the anti-mandate people. As truth chips away at the nonsensical covid restrictions there will be fringes that will be very upset.
Harris is not an NBC. Next in line is Madam Speaker Nancy Pelosi...
Why TF would anti-mandate ppl be acting out when we’re getting what we want as restrictions are loosened?!!? 🧐
Yes, that was what I am trying to wrap my head around. It is a very illogical statement. This Canada thing must really have them worried. Plus the polling must be even worse than is generally known. The Commies are so close to their goal they can taste it and the football has been yanked away.
Actually I love it when they overreach like this. It exposes them to the masses as kooks.
This is just the wealthy psychopaths who have taken over our government seeding the ground for their plans to ensure they maintain control of Congress regardless of the will of the people as expressed in the 2022 election.
They cannot and will not lose control of Congress.
2020 part deux will make 2020 look tame in comparison.
That is essentially the government’s view on air travel. Everyone who flies is a potential terrorist. Once you go down that road it’s almost impossible to stop.
Over 20 years ago, when Bush pushed through his Patriot Act, Ron Paul (and a few others) warned that these "anti-terrorist" laws would be used against us.
Your anger in your post, this is what the DHS warning is about. No, those who realized all along what was happening will simply be happy to have the restrictions withdrawn.
Those who wake up from the fog abruptly...they will be the dangerous ones. As they realize what the government has done many will have an uncontrolled reaction of anger.
As people realize nothing we did stopped the spread of the virus, not 2-weeks, not masks, not lockdowns and not dangerous EUA shots stopped the spread or deaths. They warned Trump there could be a million Americans dead, all that they demanded of We the People failed. As people come to terms with their own scientific ignorance...
Yup, those jarred out of the mass psychosis, could become violent. It isn’t because they did one thing wrong, it is because they attempted to double down, triple down.
Jobs lost, businesses lost, inflation heading into a potential economic collapse, ...
Keeping folks cowering in fear of a disease. Can you think of a better way to control the dumb masses?
Half my neighborhood wants the overthrow of this fraud Government.
The fear is warrented.
A Walgreens pharmacist told me it was against the law to sell ivermectin.
When pressed about what law, he stated it was a state medical board.
I asked if it was a mandate and he said it was a order from the state.
I went to a Walgreens five mi!as up the road and the pharmacy said they had a small amount of ivermectin they were only giving out for treatment and not prevention.
👌🏾🤷🏿♀️
Anyone know what is going on in Ohio?
We do not negotiate with terrorists.
They’re not nuts.
They’re evil.
Quite obviously there’s something very wrong with all the ‘democracies’ of the world. These institutions are blatantly describing large segments of their own citizens as ‘every smear you can think of’. For such a broad brush to be used requires a total lack of representation in the very institutions claiming to be ‘for and of the people’.
Their hyperbole has become so extreme, to them, it has become normal. The gradual politicization and increased demonization of anyone that disagrees has reached a point that, quite obviously, the ‘emperor has no clothes’. It is plain for all to see.
Look at how millions of Canadians are being described. How many in their parliament reflect their voice? Then we can turn to Austria, Australia, and even here. It has gone beyond anything that could be considered acceptable. They talk about a great reset, I agree with them - except I’m talking about the allowed size of government and the power they’re assuming over a virus.
There’s a newthink at work in all this: when people on the right all want something = bad. Automatically it’s deemed evil, regardless of the issue.
For example, the phrase “HONK!” has been used on 4chan and donald_win for crazy policies showing we are living in a ‘Clown World’ where insanity rules.
Therefore, Facebook now says the word “HONK” violates community standards.
Conservatives / Republicans (actually we are old school liberals and the Republican party left us decades ago) do something = bannable offense.
Someone on 4chan had the amusing idea to do the most inoffensive comment to demonstrate the backlash effect. They came up with the idea, “It’s okay to be white.” The idea was to print up flyers with that and post them to see the results.
Of course, ‘white nationalist’ and ‘neo-Nazi’ etc. with colleges calling it hate speech, etc. But the exercise proved the premise.
They want mandates, control of your body, lockdowns, control of your physical freedom, control of businesses, control of commerce, control of thought, absolute control.
Anyone who opposes their total control is a threat.
” Next in line is Madam Speaker Nancy Pelosi...”
Oh, Joy!
Dems are tanking in the polls and trying to ‘open things up’ (no masks, no shutdowns) pre midterms.
Someone nailed it:
@RantyAmyCurtis
Time for a thread.
I implore you, DO NOT FORGET what they’ve done to you. Do not let their sudden realization they are in bad shape politically excuse the last two-plus years of abuses.
Replying to @RantyAmyCurtis
They shut down your job.
Called many of you “non-essential.”
Closed your kids’ schools.
Expected you to live off $1200 for months while they got richer and richer.
They demanded you stay home.
Denied you the ability to be with your dying loved ones.
Then denied you the ability to give those loved ones a proper funeral.
While they let George Floyd have three.
They told you to stay home.
While they went on vacation. Visited family. The hair salon.
They arrested you for paddle boarding by yourself.
They shut down the parks and the playgrounds.
They called you a grandma killer if you questioned them.
Suspended you from social media if you didn’t obey the narrative.
They called you domestic terrorists when you demanded your kids get the education your tax dollars paid for.
They mocked you when you demanded a return to normalcy for children.
They sneer at your concern over empty shelves and exploding grocery and utility bills.
They denied you the chance to try alternative treatments for COVID.
Then they fired you for not getting the vaccine.
When you stand up for your freedom, they call you Nazis and bigots.
Do not forget what they have done. Do not forgive them. They are hoping that, by November, you have forgotten the nightmare
of the last 2+ years.
YOU struggle to make ends meet and the best thr Biden administration can do is free crack pipes for “racial equity.”
This is on top of the woke, cancel culture bull they shove down our throats, the 2020 riots, being accused of racism and bigotry because we oppose their agenda.
As the election draws closer, they’ll pretend they didn’t do any of this.
They’ll gaslight us. Project. Blame the GOP (like they tried to when defunding the police went south).
DO NOT give them power.
They haven’t learned a damn thing from this.
You re-elect them, and you can expect masks and lockdowns and nonsense in perpetuity. Not just for COVID, but for whatever else they deem a “public health emergency” (guns, climate change).
They will trample your rights.
VOTE THEM OUT.
NEVER FORGET.

Only scratched the surface, as you well know. Didn’t mention murdering a child for driving his bike on one’s lawn, murdering a child in the back seat of a car over a traffic dispute, murdering a retired police chief for defending his store, etc., etc., etc...
