White House ‘Domestic Extremism’ Report Puts Target On Democrats’ Political Opponents
It is such an obvious attempt to try to crush political dissent, you wonder if they thought no one was paying attention.
The Biden administration just released a “ National Strategy for Countering Domestic Terrorism .” It calls for abuses of state power to combine elements of totalitarian government with social and cultural engineering. They decided the Constitution and those pesky old individual liberties won’t stop them from making America the Wokest Place on Earth.
It is such an obvious attempt to try to crush political dissent, you wonder if they thought no one was paying attention. If you aren’t, you need to be, because this is marching orders for a whole-of-government approach to crushing Democrats’ political enemies. They are banking on the natural instinct of most Americans to oppose terrorism by branding some constitutionally protected practices “domestic terror.”
There are legitimate domestic terror threats, and we must treat them seriously. I devote several chapters to this in my new book, “ Winning the Second Civil War Without Firing a Shot ”: “When does peaceful protest and petitioning the government for redress of grievances become insurrection or sedition? Are the violent acts committed in the current conflict domestic terrorism or an internal insurgency? Those are complicated concepts that unfortunately we are watching play out on the streets of this country.”
Yet the Biden team seems incapable of seeing any domestic terror threats on the political left. Their aim is directly at right-wing groups and causes, which unsurprisingly dovetails perfectly with their goal of remaking our whole country. And they’re not shy about saying so. From the strategy:
That means tackling racism in America. It means protecting Americans from gun violence and mass murders. It means ensuring that we provide early intervention and appropriate care for those who pose a danger to themselves or others. It means ensuring that Americans receive the type of civics education that promotes tolerance and respect for all and investing in policies and programs that foster civic engagement and inspire a shared commitment to American democracy, all the while acknowledging when racism and bigotry have meant that the country fell short of living up to its founding principles.
It reads like a press release from Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, not a serious look at the dangers we face. But the left has never seen a “problem” that didn’t need a serious dose of more government control. So, in their usual mode of not letting a crisis go to waste, they are crying havoc and letting slip the dogs of state power. More strategy:
Although the U.S. Government must do everything it can to address enduring challenges like racism and bigotry in America, the Federal Government alone cannot simply ‘solve’ these challenges quickly or on its own. On the other hand, tackling the threat posed by domestic terrorism over the long term demands substantial efforts to confront the racism that feeds into aspects of that threat. We are, therefore, prioritizing efforts to ensure that every component of the government has a role to play in rooting out racism and advancing equity for under–served communities that have far too often been the targets of discrimination and violence. This approach must apply to our efforts to counter domestic terrorism by addressing underlying racism and bigotry.
I don’t want you to think they skip talking about terrorism as they build their brave new world. They are plenty worried about it, and they’re pretty sure they know who the bad guys are: “racially or ethnically motivated violent extremists (principally those who promote the superiority of the white race ) and militia violent extremists are assessed as presenting the most persistent and lethal threats.”
Discussion of the violence directed at Asian-Americans and Jews by attackers ignores the fact these disproportionately come from black Americans. There is also not a single mention of Black Lives Matter (BLM) after a year-long riot spree that caused an estimated $2 billion in damage, injured thousands of police, and caused dozens of deaths. The Biden team keeps their allies out of the crosshairs.
The massive effort by the FBI and Justice Department to identify and charge, often overcharge, anyone they could tie in any way to the riot at the Capitol was a preview of the lack of equal treatment under the law. BLM and their partners in destruction, Antifa, were allowed to skate while anyone of the wrong political affiliation got a kick through their door by the federales.
Antifa rioters who destroyed property and set fires during the Trump inauguration saw their arrest records expunged . Many of those arrested during the 2020 riots had their charges dropped . Contrast this with the 500-plus arrests and solitary confinement without bail for Capitol rioters.
The Biden domestic terror strategy looks to institutionalize this unequal treatment and shut down the ability of citizens on the political right to exercise many constitutionally guaranteed natural rights. They start with free speech and propose to partner with the tech tyrants to further marginalize or eliminate ideas they dislike or disagree with: “These efforts speak to a broader priority: enhancing faith in government and addressing the extreme polarization, fueled by a crisis of disinformation and misinformation often channeled through social media platforms, which can tear Americans apart and lead some to violence.”
Translation: “Your ideas are dangerous to our ability to aggregate state power, and we are going to shut you down.” Social media companies have been censoring conservative speech very happily, and we’ve been told that’s just fine because they’re private companies. But this is a bold-faced announcement of a public-private partnership to create a National Thought Police.
They are also planning loyalty checks for government jobs and clearances: “Pre–employment background checks and re–investigations for government employees is a critical screening process that must account for all possible terrorist threats. The United States is well served by a diverse workforce, including in the military and Federal, state, local, tribal, and territorial law enforcement. Those who protect and defend this nation should reflect the nation, including its vast spectrum of experiences and viewpoints.”
This ensures their control of the state security apparatus is not in jeopardy from un-Woke folks. Their lack of concern for exposing these plans should be one of the most concerning things for the rest of us. They think they have the legal right and even a moral requirement to conduct a political and ideological purge.
We have had a plethora of wake-up calls recently, but this is the most blatant plan to move past the Constitution an elected government in this country has ever proposed. We must not let this stand.

True, Democrats see the KKK, Skin Heads and racist white supremacists in the gop as political opponents.
Not Joe Biden.
He embraces them.
Even you have to know that that is total bullshit.
How so JBB?
The world knows democrats have had a centuries old relationship with slavery and the owning of same. The only difference today is that the democratic slavery plantation is called "government welfare programs", and democrats are pissed when one escapes from it.
In June 2005, Byrd proposed an additional $10,000,000 in federal funding for the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial in Washington, D.C., remarking that, "With the passage of time, we have come to learn that his Dream was the American Dream , and few ever expressed it more eloquently." Upon news of his death, the NAACP released a statement praising Byrd, saying that he "became a champion for civil rights and liberties" and "came to consistently support the NAACP civil rights agenda "
If people change, discard their past associations with hate groups and reform themselves and actively support civil rights then we should welcome them. If they don't and are still wearing their hoods and are hating minorities but supporting your party platform or candidate for President perhaps you should ask why.
" A Ku Klux Klan newspaper has declared support for Donald Trump’s Republican run for U.S. president, saying America became great because it was a white, Christian republic."
"David Duke , one of the US’s most notorious racist extremists, has reiterated his support for Donald Trump ’s re-election campaign and suggested the president replace his current vice president, Mike Pence, with Fox News host Tucker Carlson ."
"Holocaust-denying neo-Nazis among the Trump supporters who stormed US Capitol"
More than likely less than a hundred people read.
"David Duke , one of the US’s most notorious racist extremists, has reiterated his support for Donald Trump ’s re-election campaign and suggested the president replace his current vice president, Mike Pence, with Fox News host Tucker Carlson ."
OK, that would up the number to 51. BTW, you do realize Duke started out his political time as a democrat, right?
" "Holocaust-denying neo-Nazis among the Trump supporters who stormed US Capitol"
OK, so for rounding sake, I'll take the number to no more than 70.
Big whoopie....
Of the five hundred domestic terrorists who have been arrested and charged for attacking the US Congress on January 6th how many were liberals or Democrats? How many turned out to be ANTIFA?
ZERO!
How do you know this?
Do you have the party/group affiliation of each of them?
Yes, they were all rightwing Trump supporters. Every one of them. So, admit it and get over it.
That comment is sooooo FOS
What needs to be admitted is that you have no fucking clue what you are talking about. Show us the arrest reports that list each person's party affiliation or group they belong to.
Better yet, don't try. We know you would fail anyway.
If so it should be easy for you to refute. So, go on and do it.
Prove it or admit you are wrong...
Prove what??????
You are the one making the claim that 500 people arrested at the Capitol are all right wing Trump supporters.
You need to prove it, or STFU and admit you are wrong.
OO! OO!
Prove that they aren't trmp supporters.....
Um, he made the claim that they are. He needs to show proof.
WE all know that if I or any other conservative would make the claim that the organizers of the Jan 6 riot were liberals, every triggered liberal on here (including you) would be screaming for evidence.
There is no logical argument to deny this.
More Russian click bait. And the proof is that the facts do not support anything alleged in this click bait.
