Summary of Terrorism Threat to the U.S. Homeland
The Secretary of Homeland Security has issued a new National Terrorism Advisory System (NTAS) Bulletin regarding the current heightened threat environment across the United States. The Homeland continues to face a diverse and challenging threat environment leading up to and following the 20th Anniversary of the September 11, 2001 attacks as well religious holidays we assess could serve as a catalyst for acts of targeted violence. These threats include those posed by domestic terrorists, individuals and groups engaged in grievance-based violence, and those inspired or motivated by foreign terrorists and other malign foreign influences. These actors are increasingly exploiting online forums to influence and spread violent extremist narratives and promote violent activity. Such threats are also exacerbated by impacts of the ongoing global pandemic, including grievances over public health safety measures and perceived government restrictions.
Duration
Issued: August 13, 2021 02:00 pm
Expires: November 11, 2021 02:00 pm
How We Are Responding
DHS will continue to identify and evaluate calls for violence, including online activity associated with the spread of disinformation, conspiracy theories, and false narratives, by known or suspected threat actors and provide updated information, as necessary.
DHS continues to encourage the public to maintain awareness of the evolving threat environment and report suspicious activity.
DHS is coordinating with state and local law enforcement and public safety partners to maintain situational awareness of potential violence in their jurisdictions and maintain open lines of communication with federal partners.
DHS is also advancing authoritative sources of information to debunk and, when possible, preempt false narratives and intentional disinformation, and providing educational materials to promote resilience to the risks associated with interacting with and spreading disinformation, conspiracy theories and false narratives.
More broadly, DHS remains committed to identifying and preventing terrorism and targeted violence while protecting the privacy, civil rights, and civil liberties of all persons.

Are any real people here surprised by this? It's going to happen no doubt, take the jab or (if you're lucky enough and not poor) be isolated permanently. Take 2 steps back and really see what's going on. It's really too late

People have concerns about faulty testing, un-proven viruses and a government threatening forced experimental shots to join society, work and travel. Followed up by deaths and other side effects.
It looks like intentional genocide, or some graphene self destruct mechanism.
We have global corporations openly funding blm terrorism.
We have Gov started and/or controlled social media filtering.
We have open marxists running schools teaching 6 year olds about crt, sexusl transitioning and anal sex.
All these entities feel like they have gone to war with the population.
Tptp have lost their gd minds and need to do less thinktanking and more stabilizing.
I am thoroughly concerned with the direction these leaders have gone, it is absolutely batsh!t insane.
I am scared for my kids future andfeel like I need an escape plan for the entirely intentional destruction of society.
I won't do anything violent, just escape before it all goes down.
The state of the union has never been worse.
The military needs to wake up and stop the nonsense.
These extremists may seek to exploit the emergence of COVID-19 variants by viewing the potential re-establishment of public health restrictions across the United States as a rationale to conduct attacks. Pandemic-related stressors have contributed to increased societal strains and tensions, driving several plots by domestic violent extremists, and they may contribute to more violence this year.
There are also continued, non-specific calls for violence on multiple online platforms associated with DVE ideologies or conspiracy theories on perceived election fraud and alleged reinstatement, and responses to anticipated restrictions relating to the increasing COVID cases.
Nation-state adversaries have increased efforts to sow discord. For example, Russian, Chinese and Iranian government-linked media outlets have repeatedly amplified conspiracy theories concerning the origins of COVID-19 and effectiveness of vaccines; in some cases, amplifying calls for violence targeting persons of Asian descent.

Wow! I love the part where they basically say they are using propaganda to discredit things they don't like. Crazy times
Yes. We see eye to eye on quite a bit.

I hear you. The idle response speaks volumes.
But guy can hope there are enough grunts or white hats within to handle this situation internally.
A group for stability.
The intentions behind all this still isn't clear. Is it:
Distraction from an intentional crash into a new system?
Intentional chaos to maintain unelected powers?
Depopulation through unrest?
Depop through vaccines?
NWO takeover crowd?
Remotely controlled people?
Flouride 2.0?
Incoming ice age/cataclysm?
All of the above?
It's absolutely insane right now.
More broadly, DHS remains committed to identifying and preventing terrorism and targeted violence while protecting the privacy, civil rights, and civil liberties of all persons.

The first person or people who should be turned in to Homeland security are those responsible for border security as they are responsible for the endangerment of the country and the people therein.
