FBI Launches Investigation Into Antifa Criminals
Rob Shimshock, Daily Caller, December 1, 2017
Story continues below advertisementThe FBI is launching an investigation into people “motivated to commit violent criminal activity” by “Antifa ideology,” according to a Thursday announcement by the organization’s director.
FBI director Christopher Wray announced the investigation to the House Homeland Security Committee, emphasizing the organization was not investigating people for their ideology, but rather crimes committed because of the ideology, reported the Washington Examiner.
“We do have a very active domestic terrorism program,” Wray told the committee. “And while we’re not investigating Antifa as Antifa — that’s an ideology and we don’t investigate ideologies — we are investigating a number of what we would call anarchist-extremist investigations where we have properly predicated subjects of people who are motivated to commit violent criminal activity on kind of an Antifa ideology.”
The FBI is investigating 1,000 instances of possible domestic terror. All investigations are allegedly pursued because of threats, not “ideology, opinion, or rhetoric,” Wray noted.
“In order to open an investigation there has to be credible evidence of federal crime, [and] threat of force or violence to further a political or social goal,” said the director. “And if we have all of those three things then we open a very aggressive investigation.”
Antifa and the alt-right have clashed at various locations in 2017 including Berkeley and Charlottesville. Establishment media have closely followed alt-right agitation, however, Antifa violence often goes uncovered. (RELATED: NYT Writes Nearly 1,500 Words On Berkeley With ZERO Mention of Antifa)
“I believe both of those groups pose equal threats,” Democratic Rep. Luis Correa of California said Thursday during a hearing. “An American citizen that loses her life to a terrorist attack, whether it’s motivated by ISIS or its motivated by white supremacists, it doesn’t matter its still a tragedy in our society and our country.”

They will have to pry into a lot of basements, students associations, deans and principals offices.
In the end they’ll come up with a wild story connecting the right with antifa, making it just another “far right nazis” group, onto some person of interest lists. Leftists collect those as a hobby.

No need to tiptoe around it … if Antifa could be labeled ‘far right’ the MSM would demand an investigation for their ‘hate’ and other crimes of existence.

Good, at least someone’ s finally looking into Antifa’s supporters. Normally, anti-fascism would be honorable, but the way many Antifa supporters go about it is just as bad! I’m glad the FBI is keeping an eye out.
Many of the Antifa supporters have wrecked property, threatened and beaten anyone who disagrees with them…..they’re a lot more like neo-nazis than they realize.
Everyone always thinks it’s okay to hurt and threaten and destroy when it’s their cause being pushed. But really, it benefits no one to do those things. We’re a country founded on free speech and decency, and extremists like KKK or neo-Nazis or ultra-left Antifa are making things worse for everyone else.

Breaking: The Whole Flynn Story Collapses
ABC News reported that Trump directed Flynn to speak with the Russians “initially as a way to work together to fight ISIS in Syria.”
In other words, Trump committed no crime by attempting to work diplomatically with another super power to defeat Islamic terrorism.
“Sorry to be a party-pooper but if this is the extent of the “directive” Flynn received, it’s incredibly mundane,” commented journalist Michael Tracey.

Another news management failure

– and the story collapse shows up more of the fake newsters
– the Tax bill will have clear news space tomorrow

It’s that time of the year, LW, so we can add the Navy to those government entities of injustice. Admiral Husband Kimmel (errors of judgment, Dec. 7, 1941); Captain Charles McVey (failure to zig-zag, July 31, 1945). Both bogus, as examination of details reveal.

“We don’t investigate ideologies” ( a system of beliefs and ideas held by a group). That would mean they don’t investigate ISIS. I really don’t see how they can investigate anything on the basis of not investigating ideologies.

I want everyone to know the following:
On December 1, 2017 the Facebook account of David Smith was shut down
by Facebook for the following reasons.
1). David continued to post the truth concerning Facebook owner Mark
Zuckerberg’s connection to islamic terrorism & Zuckerberg’s support
of rape and child rape.
2). David pointed out Zuckerberg’s connection to the New World Order.
On December 1, 2017 Facebook send David a message demanding that he
submit a picture of his face to Facebook. Facebook promised to delete
his picture from their files after they examined it. David refused to send his
picture to Facebook, Facebook then erased David Smiths Facebook account.
Please share this with others…..

This is why I have never done “FAKEBOOK”…..and I keep a bandaid over the camera on my computer…..I saw the danger of FB when it first came out….aside from the fact that Zuck stole that idea from his college roommate,,,he is a very rich and dangerous Globalist…
People may have forgotten that right before the “Arab Spring” riots that the Clintons orchestrated and funded…..Zuckie was over there putting up cellphone towers to assist the “rioters” in their cellphone communications to orchestrate the “spontaneous” uprising…..that completely destabilized the Middle East….and cost American military lives and trillions of dollars of debt to America…
When the Israeli elections were going on the Muslim Marxist Obama sent teams over there with American tax dollars to interfere in that election and stop BIBI from being elected….yet you don’t see Obama being prosecuted for that…..
In fact the loser Obama is now running around in the trail of Trump through Asia trying to undo anything Trump accomplished there….not a word out of the Bush Cartel….yet GW has had plenty to say about Trump, but never a peep about Obama…..
Note: to David Smith: consider it an honor to be Blocked by Facebook.

John Conyers has been sitting on the Committee on the Judiciary as the ranking member and is who the FBI is answerable to. He’s a FULL BLOWN Marxist and oversees the FBI, couldn’t pass a background check if his life depended on it and oversees the FBI.
Now that he’s got his hands full of sexual harassment charges, maybe the FBI will use this time to get things done, but maybe that’s wishful thinking.
Got the info at the last TEA PARTY meeting where Trevor Louden spoke. GOT his book witch shows 100 Congressmen and 20 Senators with KNOWN very visible ties to the COMMUNIST PARTY.
We’re in some deep muck and we’re all going to have to do our part to get out of it regardless of whether we are responsible with getting ourselves into this or not.

I said nothing about the people of the U.S.A. having no right to interfere with closed societies. I was saying that the FBI is a closed society.. It outlived presidential administrations, Supreme Court Justices, judges etc. If the leadership of that “culture” (the fbi) wants to keep secrets, there is nobody to control them. They will do as they may until God takes care of them, but I was not speaking of a society as you mean it.

The investigation, of course, is made possible only through the election of Donald Trump as President.
Though the director needs to understand that ideology didn’t stop the IRS from targeting certain groups during the previous administration – they did it BECAUSE of ideology that was counter to Obama’s.
The FBI would do well to investigate CA Rep Luis Correa – they could find something on him if they dig deep enough.

In a nutshell:
The ABC News Mistake:
– “Flynn would testify that the presidential candidate Donald Trump instructed him to contact Russian officials during the campaign.”
– this suggested that Trump was colluding with Russia during the campaign
The Truth:
– “Flynn would testify that the president-elect Donald Trump instructed him to contact Russian officials after the campaign.”
– a president-elect can’t do campaign colluding, he has already won the campaign. Thus, there was nothing wrong with what Trump did. It’s OK for President-elects to talk to foreign officials. To smooth the transition.

The criteria of credible evidence related to a federal crime and use of violence to further a political or ideological agenda are admirable but investigate the one common thread, ANTIFA, and most of all its funding. There will be other commonalities, such as the identity of the individual suspects who are bused into locations where they stir the unrest.
It is as obvious as the nose on your face.

The FBI is a day late and a dollar short……if they had been investigating Antifa last year they would have been able to stop Antifa Paddock here in Vegas……
Paddock and his Muslim Filipino Madam took a cruise in Europe last year with 3 stops in Muslim countries…..she has relatives in Mumbai (sic)…..
Paddock, a real estate speculator and gambler somehow amassed all those weapons and ammo…..planned and executed a para military attack in a major city that has more protection than most anywhere else…..right under the noses of the FBI….
Memo to FBI: After the UK concert attack the Daily Mail carried a quote from ISIS that said that Las Vegas was one of their next targets in America. The FBI already had evidence that Antifa was being trained by radical Muslims. Shortly after that statement by ISIS, Antifa sent out statements that they were preparing to be very violent against those who “disagreed with them”…..
After the attack ISIS claimed Paddock as one of their own and even had his Muslim name…..to this date, they have never claimed anyone who wasn’t their own…..
Yet, two weeks after the attack, the local law enforcement and the FBI, Homeland Security, and all in charge of our safety have gone dead silent……and we’ve not heard anything about where the Madam Muslim who helped Paddock is…..and not another word about the “investigation”……
The FBI under Muellar, then Comey, and now McCabe – throw in the Deep Swamp Colonels and Generals….has made them the Keystone Cops of today…..only no one is laughing…..Wherever Libtards and Globalists reign….fear and death are the norm…..
