The FBI for the first time has identified fringe conspiracy theories as a domestic terrorist threat, according to a previously unpublicized document obtained by Yahoo News. (Read the document below.)
The FBI intelligence bulletin from the bureau’s Phoenix field office, dated May 30, 2019, describes “conspiracy theory-driven domestic extremists,” as a growing threat, and notes that it is the first such report to do so. It lists a number of arrests, including some that haven’t been publicized, related to violent incidents motivated by fringe beliefs.
The document specifically mentions QAnon, a shadowy network that believes in a deep state conspiracy against President Trump, and Pizzagate, the theory that a pedophile ring including Clinton associates was being run out of the basement of a Washington, D.C., pizza restaurant (which didn’t actually have a basement).
“The FBI assesses these conspiracy theories very likely will emerge, spread, and evolve in the modern information marketplace, occasionally driving both groups and individual extremists to carry out criminal or violent acts,” the document states. It also goes on to say the FBI believes conspiracy theory-driven extremists are likely to increase during the 2020 presidential election cycle. FBI designates Pizzagate and QAnon conspiracy-based theories as domestic threats. (Photo illustration: Yahoo News; photos: Michael E. Miller/The Washington Post via Getty Images, Matt Rourke/AP, AP)

No mention that the FBI driven conspiracy against the Pres continues.
Federal Agencies that call CNN to coordinate a 5AM raid on their Political Enemies is DEFINATELY domestic terrorism.

So Hillary was a terrorist (vast right wing conspiracy).
SPLC is a front for US intelligence services
Yep, why do we need the FBI anyway? We have the US Marshal service for that. Same as the CIA, let military intelligence handle it.
Thought police!
Apparently they have learned that they cannot keep their plots and lies secret, so a preemptive strike against those who perceive is in order...
Wrong think is terrorism.
FBI taking to looking like the Soviet Union.

Here’s a crazy conspiracy theory. And it was ginned up right here! Ya’ll should be ashamed!
“Jeffrey Epstein is going to spill his guts to Law enforcement and anyone else who will listen. He’ll be dead in a month!”
How crazy is that?
The FBI sourced Snopes, literally.
Pointed out on FR in another thread, with a screenshot of the FBI report footnotes.
Call me a conspiracy theorist, but I just find it hard to believe that the center fuel tank just exploded.
Good God.
Yes, thank you for that (post 94 FBI doc footnote)
Wow.
I think the ‘document’ is a media hoax. I do not think it exists ‘officially’.
10 years in various federal positions has given me a real truth. The federal gov’t has been corrupt, as I have personally witnessed, since 1986. Both inbusiness dealings, and in conjunction with federal employee unions.
Wait! What happened to the ever dependable Southern Poverty Law Center? Oh! The Huma manatees!
M Kehoe believes the FBI needs to be disbanded and half of the 7th floor should be indicted, tried and convicted.
Y’all know where to reach me and my phone number is still the same.
Oh, almost forgot, y’all can go and reproduce asexually.

Yeah, he didn’t last a week after those records were unsealed. .. shameful to assume he’d get close to a month.
