DHS warns against mistrust of US government in latest terror bulletin | |
2022-02-10 | |
The bulletin, issued Monday and in effect until at least June 7, blamed an “online environment filled with false or misleading narratives and conspiracy theories, and other forms of mis-, dis- and mal-information introduced and/or amplified by foreign and domestic threat actors. “These threat actors seek to exacerbate societal friction to sow discord and undermine public trust in government institutions to encourage unrest, which could potentially inspire acts of violence,” DHS went on. “Mass casualty attacks and other acts of targeted violence conducted by lone offenders and small groups acting in furtherance of ideological beliefs and/or personal grievances pose an ongoing threat to the nation.” Further along in the bulletin, DHS topped its list of “[k]ey factors contributing to the current heightened threat environment” with the message: “[T]here is widespread online proliferation of false or misleading narratives regarding unsubstantiated widespread election fraud and COVID-19. Grievances associated with these themes inspired violent extremist attacks during 2021.” The bulletin did not give specific examples of such attacks. “The months preceding the upcoming 2022 midterm elections could provide additional opportunities for these extremists and other individuals to call for violence directed at democratic institutions, political candidates, party offices, election events, and election workers,” DHS added. The document also warned that “COVID-19 mitigation measures — particularly COVID-19 vaccine and mask mandates — have been used by domestic violent extremists to justify violence since 2020 and could continue to inspire these extremists to target government, healthcare, and academic institutions that they associate with those measures.” Again, it did not give specific examples.

#8 The government sows the seeds of distrust and then warns about it. Who are they warning? Fellow apparatchiks? Our Republic and government were ostensibly formed by and for the citizens. If it is anything else, one had better guard against government over-reach, abuse of citizenry, corruption and tyranny. |

#7 The bulletin did not give specific examples of such attacks. Discussion about a potential law to make illegal Congressional stock trading. Drag Queens using anal beads on kindergartners. |

#6 Mistrust of government? Have you chumps ever read the Constitution? Mistrust of government was baked into America from the get-go. It's a good thing. Unlike the DHS which started out as useless and slowly morphed into dangerous. |

#2 'Have you at any time tried to hold the American government to account for their illegal actions?' 'Are you a member of any group or clique of people that hold and express opinions counter to the media narrative?' 'Have you at any time been critical of the government's... governance?' |
