New York State is taking new steps in hopes it will stop domestic terrorism and white supremacy.
On Tuesday, Gov. Kathy Hochul released guidance for all counties in New York State and New York City. The guidance will support the development of Domestic Terrorism Prevention Plans.
New Guidance To Support New York Counties On Domestic Terrorism
"In the wake of the horrific domestic terror attack in my hometown of Buffalo, I committed to New Yorkers that we will confront the scourge of domestic terror head-on," Hochul stated. "New York is providing local governments with the tools they need to address the threat of domestic terror and targeted violence, so we can prevent tragedies before they even occur. I will never stop fighting to keep New Yorkers safe."
The New York State Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Services and its Office of Counter Terrorism at the State Emergency Preparedness Center is encouraging all counties in New York to develop their own Threat Assessment and Management (TAM) Teams as part of their Domestic Terrorism Prevention Plans.
Each county will be given $10 million to help create and operate each threat assessment management team. The teams will be made up of law enforcement, mental health professionals, school officials as well as any other key stakeholders tasked with identifying, assessing, and mitigating the threat of targeted violence, officials say.
New York Hopes To End White Supremacy
"The recent spike in domestic terror attacks represents one of the most pressing threats to public safety across the United States. In the last decade, domestic terror attacks and plots have tripled nationally. In 2021, there were 73 terrorist attacks and unearthed plots in the United States, including 38 white supremacist and similarly like-minded terrorist attacks and plots," Hochul's office stated in a press release. Executive Order In Response To Buffalo, New York Terror
Hochul's latest executive order is a direct response to the white supremacist act of terror seen at the Buffalo supermarket in May, officials say.
The executive order is specifically designed to fight the troubling surge in domestic terrorism and violent extremism frequently inspired by, planned on and posted about on social media platforms and internet forums," Hochul's office states.

The Executive order calls upon:
The New York State Division of Homeland Security to create a new unit within its Office of Counter Terrorism which will be dedicated to the prevention of domestic terrorism.
Calls for Every county and New York City to develop and maintain a plan to address the threat of domestic terrorism, including racially or ethnically motivated violent extremists.
Calls For New York State Police to create a new unit within the New York State Intelligence Center which will be dedicated to tracking domestic violent extremism. The new unit will also be tasked with increasing social media monitoring for investigative leads that may come from the online promotion of violent extremism.
"Domestic terrorism fueled by white supremacy and bigotry is the number one terrorism threat we currently face. Our team in the Office of Counter Terrorism is working around the clock to ensure counties across New York have everything they need to meet the challenge in front of us. Thanks to Governor Hochul's leadership, together we are working with our partners to make New York a safer place for everyone," Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Services Commissioner Jackie Bray said.
It's beyond credulity that she says, "Domestic terrorism fueled by white supremacy and bigotry is the number one terrorism threat we currently face."
So, this ignorant Governor links domestic terrorism with white supremacy. Apparently she's never heard of BLM or Antifa. Her intellectually dishonesty is beyond the pale.
First clue that can be used as evidence for a red-flag, anyone found carrying a pocket copy of the U.S. constitution... or bible.
Without even so much as skimming the article I know Hocul is talking about me . I hope she doesn’t think this is going to end well.
Little Hitler.
Whites (of all kinds) are telecommuting and nowhere to be found on the NYC subways, allowing large Black men to assault small Asian women with impunity.
No Step on Snek!
“”Domestic terrorism fueled by white supremacy and bigotry is the number one terrorism threat we currently face.”
“If we take a look at the number of violent crimes committed by blacks we can see they committed 153,341 of the 408,873 violent crimes, which is 37% of the violent crimes. If blacks make up 13% of the population they should only be committing 13% of the crimes, instead, they are committing crimes almost three times as many crimes as they should be.”

Darn those white supremacists.
Its not illegal to be a White Supremacist.
“Had owned a deli in Queens”
The irony of all this is that probably are a fair amount of white supremacists in working class areas like Queens—they have seen a lot and have very strong opinions about what they have seen....but....
These folks are salt of the earth hard working blue collar stiffs just trying to keep a roof over their head and food on the table for their families—they are a threat to no one.
What a pant load.
They can’t solve problems because they can’t accurately identify the problems.
If he was a true white supremacist, I doubt he had any friends. And if he had 5 friends, the chances are good 3 or 4 of them were federal operatives.
I do not think there are many white supremacists. I have met prejudiced people. Seems like it is easier to spot them of the other race for obvious reasons.
Just another way for the Liberals to declare whites as the new Jews in Nazi rule.
If you’re WHITE, you are a “Supremacist”
If you’re BLACK, you are GOLDEN.
That ought to bring down the NYS crime rate 0.000001%.
What a bunch of BS. The IC deep state stepping up a propaganda campaign, after raiding trump’s home.
The Buffalo perp was a known wolf.
Hocul et, al are using our tax dollars and our government to attack us with ultimately deadly force. While we are calling her crazy or stupid she is making active progress toward her despotic ends. Anyone who thinks we have until 2024 is delusional or demented. Our side is not yet auditing reality. The demons ARE. That moment came for them when Donald Trump won a second term. The demon party HAS to move quickly because they’ve run out of time. Not running out of time…HAVE run out of time. Watch how fast these troops, these gunmen are up and running. And watch how fast every single person on here is defined as a terrorist.
If the demographic was to narrowly tailored to black males between 17-44 years old, the statistics would reveal the true nature of their criminality.
