So maybe this is why so many DHS employees were fired back in March, they would not go along with the government overreach that was coming. It seems clear that Jan 6 was fomented by the FBI for two reasons: to lay the groundwork for the "domestic terrorist" talking point as synonymous with patriots or conservatives and to show patriots and conservatives that they can break into your home in the middle of the night, hold your kids and wife at gunpoint and haul you away to a cell to be held indefinitely and you will have no recourse. Over 500 have been arrested and hundreds are being held in jail over misdemeanor charges.

So here's the latest sanctioned authority over-step. If you discuss "conspiracy theories" such as the "origins of COVID", the "effectiveness of vaccines", "'perceived' election fraud", or "anticipated restrictions relating to the increasing COVID cases" you are a "violent extremist" and may be subjected to the same treatment as someone who attended (even if you did not enter the capitol) the Jan 6 rally.

In the bulletin, the DHS appoints itself as the unelected arbiter of defining "disinformation, consipiracy theories and false narratives."

So if you disagree with mask mandates for school children, you’re a domestic terrorist.

These actors are increasingly exploiting online forums to influence and spread violent extremist narratives...

Are we now "FRactors"?

All the world’s a stage,
And all the men and women merely players;
They have their exits and their entrances;
And one man in his time plays many parts,

To be fair, a lot of us saw this coming back in 2001 when the DHS was first proposed.

Insanity at the highest levels. They see only what they want to see. antifa and blm are terrorist organizations. They allowed them to loot, burn, destroy, assault and terrorize last year, and never called it terrorism. They hate Republicans and normal people with a passion, and are using this as an excuse to demonize normal people, with the goal of neutralizing them.

The Founding Fathers of the USA were “anti-government.” That is why they tried to build checks and balances into every part of the U.S. Constitution.

They understood the lure of absolute power for those in authority.

They would be classified as “terrorists” by today’s bureaucratic tyrants.

the FBI is our worst terrorist organization.

I could list a hundred reasons to support this statement starting with the relentless Trump Coup and ending with their support of ANTIFA and BLM vilence

I am on my phone otherwise I would do it. But can I get one of you fellow terrorists to post the picture in this following link? A picture is always worth 1000 words. Thanks in advance.

"These actors are increasingly exploiting online forums to influence and spread violent extremist narratives and promote violent activity. Such threats are also exacerbated by impacts of the ongoing global pandemic . . . "

Does this group include Steve Cox, the leftist congressional candidate in California who advocates shooting anti-vaxxers? (See article in PJ Media.)

That's what happens when you let an arrogant South American Communist like Alejandro "Popeye" Mayorkas take over the most powerful police agency in the country.

Nothing but a Fidelista DGI cutout with all the power of the Patriot Act. Thanks Bush, you dimwitted clown. Everyone warned about this.

The election was stolen, and forcing the vax on children is predatory.

yup. and it even worked here. so many posters were saying that we need to sit down and shut up now. no more rallies, no more demonstrations, they’ll just be used against us.

even President Trump seemed cowed by it all.

which is why we’ve got to get back in their faces, get back in the streets, move forward “wise as serpents and as harmless as doves,” with absolutely no fear, but the good fear and trust in God, Himself. isn’t that our motto: In God We Trust. time to get back to that.

LOL,

This is Obama part III.

Obama headed the same way. It was Bubba with a pickup truck and shotgun that was the threat.

1. All these government agencies and departments coordinate and take on the character/priorities of their senior leaders.

2. All of the senior leaders in these government agencies and departments, are POLITICAL APPOINTEES, and one to two levels down from them, the senior executive bureaucrats are hand picked by these appointees.

3. The government is by it’s very nature more liberal, because the liberals are all about big budgets and big growth for government, may it be education, health and human services, social security, the IRS, parks, EPA... Only in law enforcement and defense do you have a more conservative view or even a lot of folks that will vote more conservative, but most of the government is “liberal.”

4. The House controls the budget and all these government agencies are chasing the money. Do not be fooled, in the end, even the “war on drugs” or “global warming” are just about budgets and funding for programs: https://history.house.gov/institution/origins-development/power-of-the-purse/#:~:text=Congress%E2%80%94and%20in%20particular%2C%20the,money%20for%20the%20national%20government. These government agencies are not independent. They are controlled by the power of the purse.

***Don’t expect even a semblance of objectivity, neutrality, pragmatism, consistency, empirically based logical decision making.***

Whatever the spirit of the times are, from wherever the winds blow, that will be what the “experts” in government will echo and they will create the science or intel which leads them to where they want to go anyhow, may it be: WMD in Iraq, the dangers of marijuana (made up science), global warming which wasn’t and now is real (more made up science), Islamic terrorism which no longer exists, but domestic terrorism which is a vast threat today, the link of homosexuality to pedophilia pre 1993 and now it no longer exists... Wanna bet the DOJ will soon teach us about the dangers of guns and throw all these numbers around, which will be about as real as those numbers for Covid deaths, or the effectiveness of the vaccine...?

It would be sort of funny were it not that there are real consequences for people and our nation et al.

They are deathly afraid of us.
Unarmed protesters on January 6 proved just how fearful they are.
It would be easy to remove every Democrat from the US with nothing more than paintball guns.
