Biden Official: “White Supremacists” (aka Trump supporters) Are the Top Domestic Terror Threat


2,104 views

Really, Joe?

It’s official: the Biden administration now believes that “white supremacists” are the top domestic terror threat.

That’s right, the Biden administration thinks white supremacists are more dangerous than:

… China.

… Radical Islamic terrorists.

… Whoever hacked the Colonial Pipeline.

… North Korea.

And much more.

While the Biden official used the term “white supremacists,” many Trump supporters fear that this blanket term is being used to refer to anyone who voted for President Trump.

For example, look at what happened at the mostly peaceful protest on January 6th at the capitol.

A few hundred people trespassed for a few hours… and it’s suddenly the worst “attack” on our country since the Civil War.

Yes… according to Biden, it was worse than both Pearl Harbor and 9/11.

Yet… BLM was allowed to terrorist multiple cities in virtually every state all of last summer.

Has the double standard punched you in the face yet?

More details on this blatant hypocrisy and discrimination below:

The media and their allies in the Democrat party have lobbed false claims of racism towards President Trump.

They have also called Trump supporters racists.

Is there any question that “white supremacists” is actually a codeword for “Trump voters?”

This is what many people fear.

The Hill confirms this alarming admission from a top Biden official:

“Domestic violent extremists pose an elevated threat in 2021 and in the FBI’s view, the top domestic violent extremist threat we face comes from racially or ethnically motivated violent extremists, specifically those who advocate for the superiority of the white race,” Garland told lawmakers at the top of the hearing.

But the hearing on Wednesday highlighted the competing partisan priorities as Republicans urged a crackdown on illegal immigration and Democrats questioned whether the agencies are fully prioritizing efforts to prevent the type of domestic extremism that led to the storming of the Capitol.

Garland dismissed concern from Sen. Richard Shelby (R-Ala.) who asked whether the Justice Department was investigating with “equal vigor” protests in Portland, Ore., and other cities that were often a focus of former President Trump.

“We don’t care what the ideology is, violations of law are pursued and are prosecuted. I think it’s fair to say that in my career as a judge, and in law enforcement, I have not seen a more dangerous threat to democracy than the invasion of the Capitol,” Garland said. “There was an attempt to interfere with the fundamental passing of an element of our democracy, the peaceful transfer of power. And if there has to be a hierarchy of things that we prioritize, this would be the one we’d prioritize. It is the most dangerous threat to our democracy. That does not mean that we don’t focus on other threats.”

The Department of Justice has brought more than 400 prosecutions against individuals who participated in the Capitol riot, including members of right-wing groups such as the Oath Keepers and Proud Boys, who are facing conspiracy charges over their alleged roles in planning out operations at the Capitol on Jan. 6.

Some of those charges have also been brought against those with a military or law enforcement background.

Mayorkas faced questions on a recent Department of Homeland Security (DHS) commitment to conduct an internal review of its own workforce to root out any extremist views within its ranks.

“That sends chills down my spine that we have to even be doing that,” committee chairman Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) said before securing a commitment from Mayorkas to make the conclusions of the review public.

What makes this statement particularly mind-numbing is that Biden is in the midst of multiple crises of his own making.

There’s the crisis at the border, with inflation, concerning oil, and the Middle East.

Yet… Biden and his administration are stuck blaming Trump and Trump supporters.

Perhaps this is Biden’s public relations strategy.

Continue to blame Trump so that no one notices the multiple crises under his administration.

The New York Times confirms that “white supremacists” are now the no. #1 threat to the U.S., according to Biden officials:

Attorney General Merrick B. Garland and Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro N. Mayorkas told senators on Wednesday that the greatest domestic threat facing the United States came from what they both called “racially or ethnically motivated violent extremists.”

“Specifically those who advocate for the superiority of the white race,” Mr. Garland told the Senate Appropriations Committee.

The cabinet secretaries’ comments reflected a dramatic shift in tone from the Trump administration, which deliberately downplayed the threat from white supremacists and similar groups, in part to elevate the profile of what former President Donald J. Trump described as violent threats from radical left-wing groups.

Last year, a former head of the Department of Homeland Security’s intelligence branch filed a whistle-blower complaint in which he accused the department of blocking a report about the threat of violent extremism and described white supremacists as having been “exceptionally lethal in their abhorrent targeted attacks in recent years.”

Mr. Mayorkas told senators on Wednesday, “The department is taking a new approach to addressing domestic violent extremism, both internally and externally.”

As Mr. Garland and Mr. Mayorkas testified before the Appropriations Committee, former members of the Trump administration told the House Oversight Committee that Mr. Trump’s false claims to have won the 2020 election had fueled the domestic terrorism threat, a point many Republican lawmakers have rejected. Earlier on Wednesday, House Republicans ousted Representative Liz Cheney of Wyoming from her leadership position for publicly pushing back on Mr. Trump’s claims, in the latest sign of Mr. Trump’s continued hold on the party.

While the Justice and Homeland Security Departments have long been involved in countering violent extremism inside the country, Biden administration officials have said the Jan. 6 pro-Trump riot at the Capitol showed an urgent need to focus more on domestic extremism.

Senate Republicans did not share that focus on Wednesday and instead grilled Mr. Garland and Mr. Mayorkas on border security issues.

The top Republican on the committee, Senator Richard C. Shelby of Alabama, said that Democrats were politicizing the issue by describing violent domestic extremists as coming from the far right. He equated the Capitol riot to the protests against police violence last summer, and asked Mr. Garland why the Justice Department seemed to be prioritizing pursuing the perpetrators of the Jan. 6 attack over those who looted shops and attacked law enforcement during racial justice protests.

So what do you think?

Do you agree with the Biden administration’s assessment?

If not, what do you think is the real threat to U.S. security?
