Department of Homeland Security states that it ‘restructured’ domestic terror team

26

Thank Gd. Finally, some reality and logic. The ADL is furious, because it just put out a spurious report claiming that white supremacists and “right-wing extremists” were far more of a threat in the United States than Islamic jihadists. Such reports always ignore the fact that Islamic jihadis in the U.S. are part of an international organization, while white supremacists are just a handful of lone nuts. They also ignore the numerous failed plots, which Geller Report readers but few others ever hear about. The DHS is doing the right thing: focusing on the real threat. Expect the enemedia and the left to howl.

“Department of Homeland Security admits that it ‘restructured’ domestic terror team,” by Jeff Pegues, CBS News, April 2, 2019 (thanks to Christian):

Amid reports that it “disbanded” the unit that was focused on domestic terrorism, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is admitted Tuesday that it has “restructured” the team that once fed information about domestic terrorism and white supremacist groups to local police departments.

DHS is now acknowledging changes in its intelligence gathering, as some former department officials tell CBS News that the unit at issue wasn’t disbanded but “gutted” at the worst time – just as threats from domestic terrorists and white supremacist groups increased.

Late last month, in response to a CBS News report on the issue, DHS would not address questions about whether the unit had been “gutted.” However, the department did insist that it “is committed to combating all forms of violent extremism, especially movements that espouse racial supremacy or bigotry.”

On Tuesday, the department was forced to address the issue again after The Daily Beast reported that DHS had disbanded its domestic terror intelligence unit. DHS now says the unit was restructured last year, but its top intelligence official disputes accusations that DHS has decreased its domestic terrorism-related intelligence gathering.

“The Office of Intelligence and Analysis has significantly increased (up 40-percent) tactical intelligence reporting on domestic terrorists and homegrown violent extremists wanting to commit violent acts against persons or property,” Under Secretary David Glawe told CBS News. “Violent extremism to the homeland with triggers such as radical ideology white supremacy is an absolute top priority.”

Last month, Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen said Islamist militants and those they inspire are the primary terrorist threat to the United States. But she added: “We should not—and cannot—ignore the real and serious danger posed by domestic terrorists.”

The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) released a statement Tuesday saying that DHS’ action “defies logic.” Jonathan Greenblatt, the ADL’s CEO and national director, also accused the Trump Administration of “chipping away at our nation’s ability to address a deadly serious national security threat: right-wing extremism.” …

Stop focusing on a few Bubba’s in the back country and start focusing on muzzies chopping off heads in the street and conspiring to murder thousands of Americans. Start looking at whats comming across the Mexican border. ISIS thugs, MS-13, Cartel gang members, fentanal by the ton. Of course the leftist scum in this country doesn’t want you to see that

Agree. Jihadis and Leftists scums like Antifa, BLM, illegal criminals are true terrorists

They come, steal , threaten, takeover and ethnically cleanse with/without violence
https://tinyurl.com/y7yhc4dl

you cannot win unless there is organised legal /political pushback.
And that cannot happen without more ppl funding , supporting , sharing real news that
expose the truth that MSM will not cover

Email your reps , participate in street rallies that oppose left/jihadi menace

But Most conservatives, patriots expect someone else will do it for them !

Not true. We seniors and elderly can’t get out in street rallies for obvious reasons….but we do write and call representatives and give to the election campaigns of Conservative candidates.
Our generation did our part protecting America….we handed it off to the last two generations who voted for the Criminal Clintons, the Bush Cabal who were in bed with the Saudis, and then the Muslim Marxist Obama…

Now our country is filled with Soyboys, militant anti-male females, and dangerous illegals, drugs killing our young, birth rate is down, and all of them getting “triggered” if someone speaks out about the above….to the point that colleges made “safe rooms” for the little darlings so they could watch kittens playing.

We’ve got anti-Americans in our Congress….we’ve got so many foreigners here that will NEVER ASSIMILATE. They came here to destroy us and our country to turn it into another Europe….which is collapsing as I write this.

All good points, and I would add a revisit to the Holy Land Foundation materials that laid out the stealth subversion of America through ALL of the 3 and 4 lettered Islamic groups spread all across the country and still in full operation, but as you say, there are enablers who bury stuff and who obviously do not have America’s best interests at heart. Mueller was FBI head during those trials, and even though plenty of guilty verdicts and 9 prison sentences spoke of the validity of the case, he disbanded the Fed’s anti-terror division and all related materials were destroyed – nothing to see here folks! As Pamela says “How the left destroys a nation”

These “antifa” = communistic / socialist / Marxist fascists. These are the DemocRATic communist/islamist/nwo party’s BROWN SHIRT FASCISTS that Hitler used in Germany to help him wrestle political control. – – – AND/OR – – – They are the BROWN SHIRT FASCISTS that Mussolini used in Italy to wrench political control of the country.
In the end of their rule – – both “parties” perished or FLED like CHICKENS. Many in the NAZI party were brought to America under the “paperclip” policy with new names, etc. which was granted by the US GOVERNMENT.

…because they fund it…..just like the KKK before them, Black Panthers, and the riots during the Vietnam war….you should hear Jon Voight talk about that. If you can look up his interview on Life, Liberty, and Levine….it will move you and make you see how the communists in our country did not go away after they failed in the 1940s….they went into the education systems from kindergarten through universities….for generations now.

How well do I remember. I’m impressed that you do even though most don’t. Most Americans are completely clueless about the full extent of her Muslim-sympathizing proclivities. Worse still, they don’t even care.

……Brennan converted to Islam during the Desert Storm war, married a Muslim woman…..you should get Michael Youssef’s book: JESUS, JIHAD, AND PEACE. He is a former ME Muslim who became a Christian and founded the CHURCH OF THE APOSTLES in Georgia…..he’ll tell you exactly where the Bushs put the Muslims in our government and military….and then it went on steroids with Obama.

Obama cleaned out 194 top military leaders from the Pentagon…and even fired General Mattis….So when people whine about Trump firing him, I just laugh.

Eisenhower told us in his farewell speech…”beware of the military complex”. He was right. Now President Trump is working to clean up the cabal in the Military swamp. I wish he would hire back the ones that Obama forced into early retirement.

GW getting up at that podium on 9/11 and saying “Islam means Peace”….was knowingly a bald faced lie….It translates to “subjugation” to Allah and Mohammed…..by being either a slave or dead.

The Bushs have been in bed with the Muslims since their great grandfather….The great grandfather was the banker for Hitler…..one of his great uncles was the one who stopped Tesla from giving us free energy…..GW’s college roommate was a Saudi Prince….

The Clintons were just as dirty as the Bushs with the Saudis….

Youssef will even tell you about the American banks and their holding companies that are paying “tithes” to the MEs who do business with them.

The greatest gift that God gave us was President Donald J. Trump…for which I thank God everyday.

This “anti-terrorist” group of America was GUTTED by muslem convert named ‘j.brennan’. He joined the ENEMY of America that has STATED, in written form, that they will CONQUER America. This enemy of America FEELS that since a muslem was appointed as president, they have the right to all America. Thus they can live HIGH-ON-THE-HOG while the ameriKan slaves serve them.
They forget We the People will not “GO SILENTLY IN THE NIGHT”.

This is for Pamela readers:
I posted the following comment on BB about the Left and Blacks wanting “reparations” for being slaves……BB is holding it up for “monitoring” ….there were other posters with more profane and aggressive posts…but mine was stopped.
Here is my post…you be the judge…

[You should read Malcom X’s book about how the government sent in drugs to the Blacks in the ghettos….and other things.
However, they didn’t have to take them….that is on them.

And here’s an interesting fact: At one point Lincoln called in the Black Leaders of that time.
He told them he would either return them to their former countries – Or – he had found some land in Central America the U.S. would purchase for them and they could have their own country.
They refused.
As far as I’m concerned, once they refused those “reparations” ….Americans owe them nothing.]
