DHS has issued a security warning


Jan 27, 2021, 4:15 PM

I am attaching the article but the warning itself follows:


"Information suggests that some ideologically-motivated violent extremists with objections to the exercise of governmental authority and the presidential transition, as well as other perceived grievances fueled by false narratives, could continue to mobilize to incite or commit violence," according to a bulletin issued Wednesday through the DHS National Terrorist Advisory System -- or NTAS.

But over the past year, domestic terrorists "motivated by a range of issues, including anger over COVID-19 restrictions, the 2020 election results, and police use of force have plotted and on occasion carried out attacks against government facilities," and "long-standing racial and ethnic tension -- including opposition to immigration -- has driven [domestic terrorist] attacks," the bulletin issued Wednesday said.


It seems to me that the language here is such that it would include violence by white supremacists, right-wing reactionaries, Antifa, and BLM. It will be interesting to see how state and local governments respond to this warning and any such violence that might occur.

Just a whole lot of unrest. One common theme.

We need a neutral zone, where all laws are suspended


Jan 27, 2021, 4:44 PM

and Antifa and the Far-right can just go ahead and take it out on each other free from prosecution. I suggest Detroit.

Looks like DC is prepared for a cage match already.***
