Biden Steps Up Federal Efforts to Combat Domestic Extremism

WASHINGTON — The Biden administration is stepping up efforts to combat domestic extremism, increasing funding to prevent attacks, weighing strategies historically used against foreign terrorist groups and more openly warning the public about the threat. Members of the Proud Boys, a far-right group, at a rally in Portland in September. Its leaders are among the most prominent targets of the sprawling investigation into the attack on the Capitol. Members of the Proud Boys, a far-right group, at a rally in Portland in September. Its leaders are among the most prominent targets of the sprawling investigation into the attack on the Capitol. The attempts to more assertively grapple with the potential for violence from white supremacists and militias are a shift from President Donald J. Trump’s pressure on federal agencies to divert resources to target the antifa movement and leftist groups despite the conclusion by law enforcement authorities that far-right and militia violence was a more serious threat. a man wearing a blue shirt: “It turns out the report was right, and it was prescient, and we see today increasing incidents of right-wing or white nationalist activity across the country,”

Translation - use the military to support BLM and AntiFa.

God help us.

I shouldn't say this but here goes. We tried to settle this by campaigning against the Chinese WuHan Virus Covid lockdown odds and without any media help at all to honestly re-elect President Trump, a God fearing though flawed man, in a fair election. We prayed for God's help.

Thus we now must pray to God that He will protect us in the battles to come----which were not our idea or plan.

Bingo! I think you’re right on target. This has his finger prints all over it. It’s that drive to build a political army...that’s was interrupted by Trumps election.

Was Biteme even conscience during all the BLM/Antifa riots, breaking and entering, looting, arson, assaults, deaths last year? The Left’s focus on whites is now beyond absurd.

This will be the mantra used as an excuse to deprive us of our constitutional and civil freedoms. Even groups that have vowed to burn America to the ground will be ignored if they have the right political orientation.

I find Commandant Nazi Klink there at Fort Pelosi to be much more of an existential, terrorist threat to the US.

The Democrat Party is close enough to defining “domestic extremism” for all practical purposes.

<< conclusion by law enforcement authorities that far-right and militia violence was a more serious threat (than Antifa and BLM) >>

Where “authorities” = deep state mouthpieces. To anyone paying even a little attention and not completely brainwashed, leftist violence is far and away the greater threat.

Biden and his puppetmasters aim to CREATE the threat of which they propagandize by pushing normal, patriotic Americans way too far with their jackboot thuggery and woke Marxist agenda.

IOW, us Bitter, Bible clinging gun lovers are not cowing enough to our new overlords.

I am sure that’s true. I admit, I didn’t read the article. It’s against my religion, to read The NY Times. 😁

The recent Capitol car attack underlines the level on animosity against the elected dwellers......which is well-earned....and spreading like wildfire.

The haste in erecting razor wire barriers around the Capitol is to protect themselves.

These people are scared stiff, hoping against hope to protect their sorry carcasses from the people.

When our “elected betters” see we, the people, joining together, it scares the crap out of them.....

They don’t want us to know they’ve lost the country.

They’re ruling with force and fear, not consent. (h/t virgil) .

"Here come the drones and Stinger missiles."

The world is turned inside out. The Biden team would love to turn its woke military loose on American patriots while defending Antifa and BLM as peaceful movements that must be defended from the rest of us.

It is coming. Step by step day by day. I thought that it would already be here. By Domestic Extremism, they are referring to what used to be known as Patriots. I have already reconciled myself to what I will do if I am still living when they decide to act.

In other words, if you didn’t ‘vote’ for the pedocrats, YOU’RE the enemy and are considered a Domestic Terrorist.

"Not before thousands of Americans will have their firearms confiscated under the guise of “red flag” laws."

I always ask, who is going confiscate 10's of millions of unregistered guns? National Guard? Regular Military? No, they don't have the personnel to go house to house of millions of gun owners. It won't happen on such a large scale. If tried that would definitely start a war between the People and whatever fed or state government attempts it. Think clandestine and Swamp Rats.

Not one step will be taken to stamp out Islamonazism, narcoterrorism, or antisemitic Klantifa.

**This is all Barry**

He isn’t smart enough. In order to sound smart he reads a prompter just like slojoe. His ability to talk ‘white’, and his much practiced head and hand movements, while keeping his eyes on the script on the screens, is how he got past the other dems in the 08 primaries.

He had it down so good in 04, when he spoke at the dem convention, that people just fell it. But in reality, he’s not very smart. His handlers are the brains, just like slojoe.
