The Left really has weaponized every federal agency against their political opponents. This is a travesty. The liberty to petition your government with your grievances is a fundamental component of a self-governing society. Sometimes those petitions are passionate, rude, or even belligerent. That’s always been part of a free society. Specific threats against public officials have always been punished just like threats against anyone else. What the FBI has been doing here is trying to intimidate and criminalize a speech based on its content – based on the fact that is goes against a particular political ideology. This is totalitarian stuff.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has created a tag for threats against teachers and school administrators and is tracking such investigations on a national level.
An FBI whistleblower provided an email dated Oct. 20 to House Republicans sent on behalf of the counter-terrorism division and the criminal division. The email referenced Attorney General Merrick Garland’s Oct. 4 directive to the FBI to ramp up its involvement in school board threats, and notified agents of a new tag, ‘EDUOFFICIALS,’ to assign to any threats against school administrators, board members, staff or teachers to determine the scope of the problem on a national level and to provide a ‘comprehensive analysis of the threat picture.’
‘This disclosure provides specific evidence that federal law enforcement operationalized counterterrorism tools at the behest of a left-wing special interest group against concerned parents,’ House Republicans claimed in a letter to Garland.
They weaponized it against one man, the leading presidential candidate, and then the duly elected president of this country. I’m shocked that anyone is shocked that they have now weaponized it against the truly woke citizens.
Oh and fuck Leroy.
I wonder if the FBI is investigating the threats against the judge in the Rittenhouse case?
I doubt it.
I wonder if the FBI is investigating the threats of violence if Rittenhouse is found not guilty?
And if there is actual threats against teachers, administrators and school board members, why is it a federal issue and not a state and local issue?
This is more evidence of the federalization of the police
They weaponized it to protect and continue perfecting their liberal programming project, better known as Public schools.
FBI, DOJ, DHS, local police. Whatevs.
Oh, Lord, I’m stuck in…
The Lodi School District official who asked police to respond to an orderly school board meeting earlier this month said police presence would make a board member “feel better.”
