FBI: Domestic Extremists Pose Threat Equal To ISIS
|
November 6, 2021 |
|
|
What You Need To Know |
On Wednesday of this week, Timothy Langan, Assistant Director of the FBI's Counterterrorism Division, testified before the House Intelligence Committee on agency efforts to counter domestic terrorism. Langan stated that "racially motivated domestic extremists," and in particular white supremacists, pose a violent threat in the United States so great that the FBI considers it equal to that of Islamic State militants.
Here is Langan's opening statement.
Note that in this testimony there was no mention of the multi-year run of Antifa and BLM protests extending from the approach of the 2016 election and the "Not My President" sky screamers, through to the 2020 election. Who can forget the attempted siege of the White House, the billions in damages in cities across the U.S., the rioting and removal of historic monuments in Washington, DC and elsewhere, the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone, or CHAZ, in Seattle, the nightly attacks on police departments in Portland and elsewhere, the countless businesses damaged and destroyed, the regular attacks on Immigration and Customs enforcement facilities, and so on. In 2020 alone, at least 25 Americans were killed while participating in political demonstrations.
The FBI Does Not Track Leftist Violence
In a congressional hearing just over one month ago titled "Confronting Violent White Supremacy (Part VI): Examining the Biden Administration’s Counterterrorism Strategy," Langan admitted that the Bureau doesn't consider Antifa to be an "organization," and as such does not have specific information on the group's activities.
In response to a question about how much violence or domestic terrorism Antifa committed in recent years from Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC), Langan's response was stunning:
"Since we don’t categorize Antifa, nor do we calculate or collate information regarding Antifa, that movement, we don’t have that,” said the senior FBI counterterrorism official. “But we can provide you information on anarchist threats and cases in general."
Also see this.
Readers are cautioned that are many angry people in the U.S. of all races and political leanings. Add to this the renewed threat of attack by foreign terrorist organizations and those inspired by their ideology. Add to this the wide open southern border, the arrest of dozens of individuals appearing on both the terrorism watch list and No Fly list, and one can see that all the ingredients are present for a noisy, potentially dangerous near-term future.
Once again, AlertsUSA urges readers to stay in touch with local events and to maintain a high level of vigilance when in public.
AlertsUSA continues to monitor the domestic and international threat environment around the clock and will immediately notify service subscribers, via SMS messages to their mobile devices, of new alerts, warnings and advisories or any developments which signal a change the overall threat picture for American citizens as events warrant.

NATIONAL VACCINATION STANDING
According to the CDC's COVID Data Tracker website, more than 428 million doses of the COVID-19 vaccines have been administered within the U.S..
VACCINE ADVERSE EVENT REPORTING
According to the CDC's Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) between mid-December 2020 and Oct 29 of this year, more than 856,000 adverse events have been reported following COVID19 vaccinations. As it is estimated that only 1% of adverse events are recorded into the system, these numbers could be significantly higher.
Reports of adverse events to VAERS following vaccination, including deaths, do not necessarily mean that a vaccine caused a health problem.
Current VAERS reports (U.S. only) related to COVID-19 vaccines include:
Deaths: 8,284
Hospitalizations: 38,818
Urgent Care: 79,671
Anaphylaxis: 2,073
Bell's Palsy: 2,706
Miscarriages: 1,336
Heart Attacks: 4,206
Myo/Pericarditis: 3,667 |

Criminal Immigration Prosecutions Plummet
On November 1, the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse (TRAC) at Syracuse University released a report captioned “Federal Immigration Prosecutions at Record Lows”. Despite promises from the Biden DHS that “repeat offenders” would be referred for criminal proceedings, prosecutions for most immigration-related offenses have plummeted since the start of the pandemic, and are unlikely to rise under the current administration. Only smuggling prosecutions are returning to normal.

COVID-19 Vaccine Facts For Mothers
On 29 October 2021, the Food and Drug Association (FDA) extended its Emergency Authorization for the Pfizer-BioNTech “vaccine” to be given to reduce serious COVID-19 infections in children aged 5-11 years. The FDA provided little evidence for their decision except for a minimal-sized “immunobridging” study which incorrectly considered blood antibody levels to be the same thing as immunity to the COVID-19 virus. It is not. Especially when using an mRNA “vaccine” that is demonstrably no longer working in the older age groups.
The Pfizer COVID-19 mRNA vaccine is not really a “vaccine” in the true sense of the word. It does not provide a long-term immunity like the existing vaccines for measles, polio, chickenpox, and smallpox. Rather, it is an experimental nucleic acid preparation that is associated with rare but catastrophic side effects in individuals aged 12 and older. The administration of the Pfizer-BioNTech “vaccine” for children aged 5 to 11 should be limited to those children with medical conditions known to be at risk for COVID-19, and then only under a strict physician’s consideration and supervision. Alternatively, successful early, drug treatments for COVID-19 are available.
