Biden And DHS Secretary Claim ‘White Supremacy’ Is The Greatest US Terror Threat

May 15, 2023

Recently we showcased a Department of Homeland Security propaganda program uncovered through FOIA which was intended to use a choose-your-own-adventure style narrative to teach the public how to identify “radicalized” domestic threats.  The majority of dangerous persons provided in sample cases were people espousing conservative values.  In other words, the DHS is seeking to actively target conservatives as the primary terror threat in the US.

This revelation comes just as the White House launches a domestic terror tour, with Joe Biden proclaiming in an address to the exclusively black Howard University in Washington DC that:

“The most dangerous threat to our homeland is white supremacy … and I’m not just saying this because I’m at a black HBCU.”

Biden warns of “sinister forces” trying to reverse racial progress, stating that the battle against racism is a “battle that’s never really over.”  But that’s because Biden and his associates don’t want it to be over, and the sinister force he speaks of trying to reverse racial progress includes people like him.

It’s perhaps not a coincidence that Biden makes this declaration just as Title 42 is ending and the US southern border is being overrun will illegal immigrants.  It’s also probably not a coincidence that Biden’s rhetoric is growing ever more divisive as the US economy faces increasing debt crisis risks and a fast approaching presidential election.  It makes sense in a disturbing way that the establishment would want to divide America along racial lines as much as possible before stagflation turns into a crash.

Better to let the masses fight each other rather than placing any blame on politicians and corporate leaders where it belongs.  And, ideally, the powers-that-be would greatly prefer that liberty minded Americans become the all encompassing bogeyman that they need to distract the populace from their problems.  When they say they’re going after “white supremacists,” what they really mean is they are targeting anyone of any color that opposes their ideology. https://www.zerohedge.com/political/biden-and-dhs-secretary-claim-white-supremacy-greatest-us-terror-threat

Homeland Security training depicts pro-life moms as radicalized, potential domestic terrorists

May 15, 2023

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) created a memo with game-like scenarios to help agents make real-life decisions about whether or not radicalization was happening and about which types of individuals were most likely to become “domestic terrorists.”

“The agency is out of control,” said Reed Rubinstein, senior counselor for AFL.@America1stLegal has released documents showing that the #DHS has conducted programs that characterize white people and conservative values as tilting towards radicalism. https://t.co/yW51nyEbG0

— The Epoch Times (@EpochTimes) May 9, 2023

The group of people listed as the “most persistent and lethal threat” by the memo are those perceived as white supremacists. The second group labeled “other significant threat actors” includes black supremacists, sovereign citizens, anarchists, violent offenders, and anti-government violent extremists.

The memo went on to create five main characters in five storylines that, according to the Epoch Times, “put forward scenarios involving fictional radicalized characters. The main characters of four story branches are visually portrayed as white individuals who are presented as slowly slipping into violent radicalism on issues like abortion and government control, among others.”

Perhaps the most concerning of the five fictitious characters portrayed in the training material is named “Ann.” In the scenario, Ann is a “middle-aged pro-life advocate, is a radicalization suspect, and is in her mid-40s.”

This is the description given of Ann as the reason to suspect that she has been radicalized and may be radicalizing others:

This is Ann, a resident of Elkville in rural America. Ann has always been religious but since the death of her mother, she’s become increasingly devout. She’s a regular in the small town community, active in several church groups. While she has always been protective of her four kids, she has become increasingly more concerned about the welfare of other children, including the unborn.

To the Biden administration, this is a description of a person who has been radicalized and is a threat to become a domestic terrorist. A middle-aged white woman who loves her children, cares about the unborn, and is devoutly religious. 05/12/23 https://fism.tv/homeland-security-training-depicts-pro-life-moms-as-radicalized-potential-domestic-terrorists/

Well, it is pro-abortion people who are terrorists. At minimum they promote the murder of innocent babies.

Now, the Bible does warn, “There shall be terror within” (Deuteronomy 32:25).

The Bible also lists the following as a curse:

43 “The alien who is among you shall rise higher and higher above you, and you shall come down lower and lower. (Deuteronomy 28:43)

What we are seeing is that by calling various ones terrorists, the US government is being a terror-causing organization itself.

Notice the following from a couple of years ago:

Would YOU Be Considered a Domestic Terrorist Under This New Bill?

by Robert Wheeler

After 9/11, the entire country collectively lost its mind in the throes of fear. During that time, all civil and Constitutional rights were shredded and replaced with the pages of The USA PATRIOT Act.

Almost 20 years later, the U.S. has again lost its collective mind, this time in fear of a “virus” and it’s “super mutations” and a “riot” at the capitol. A lot of people called this and to the surprise of very few, much like after 9/11, Americans are watching what remains of their civil liberties be replaced with a new bill.

The Domestic Terrorism Prevention Act of 2021

The DTPA is essentially the criminalization of speech, expression, and thought. It takes cancel culture a step further and all but outlaws unpopular opinions. This act will empower intelligence, law enforcement, and even military wings of the American ruling class to crack down on individuals adhering to certain belief systems and ideologies. …

Those who read the bill aren’t so gung ho to shred the Constitution

Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard has some serious reservations. In a recent interview on Fox News Primetime, Gabbard stated that the bill effectively criminalizes half of the country …

Even the ACLU, one of the weakest organizations on civil liberties in the United States, has spoken out. While the ACLU was only concerned with how the bill would affect minorities or “brown people,” the organization stated that the legislation, while set forth under the guise of countering white supremacy, would eventually be used against non-white people.

The ACLU’s statement is true.

As with similar bills submitted under the guise of “protecting” Americans against outside threats, this bill will inevitably expand further. The stated goals of the DPTA are far-reaching and frightening enough. It would amount to an official declaration of the end to Free Speech.

Soon there will be no rights left for Americans

In the last twenty years, Americans have lost their 4th Amendment rights, and now they are losing their 1st. 01/27/21 https://www.theorganicprepper.com/domestic-terrorism-act-2021/

Some of Tulsi Gabbard’s comments were reported here on Monday (see Tulsi Gabbard: Domestic-Terrorism Bill Is “A Targeting Of Almost Half Of The Country” Michael Snyder: The Police State Is Coming For “Religious Extremists”, “Evangelical Christians”, “Pro-Life” Activists And “Libertarians”

We are also seeing increased police presence in Washington D.C.

The USA more and more is resembling the early stages of being a police state. Notice something from the past:

LAND OF THE FREE?

Our dress rehearsal for a police state

All my life, I have dismissed paranoids on the right (“America is headed to communism”) and the left (“It can happen here” – referring to fascism). It’s not that I’ve ever believed liberty was guaranteed. Being familiar with history and a pessimist regarding the human condition, I never believed that.

But the ease with which police state tactics have been employed and the equal ease with which most Americans have accepted them have been breathtaking.

People will argue that a temporary police state has been justified because of the allegedly unique threat to life posed by the new coronavirus. I do not believe the data will bear that out. Regardless, let us at least agree that we are closer to a police state than ever in American history.

“Police state” does not mean totalitarian state. America is not a totalitarian state; we still have many freedoms. In a totalitarian state, this article could not be legally published, and if it were illegally published, I would be imprisoned and/or executed. But we are presently living with all four of the key hallmarks of a police state:

No. 1: Draconian laws depriving citizens of elementary civil rights.

The federal, state, county and city governments are now restricting almost every freedom …

No. 2: A mass media supportive of the state’s messaging and deprivation of rights. …

No. 3: Use of police.

Police departments throughout America have agreed to enforce these laws and edicts with what can only be described as frightening alacrity. …

No. 4: Snitches.

How do the police dispatchers learn of lawbreakers such as families playing softball in a public park, lone joggers without face masks, etc.? From their fellow citizens snitching on them. The mayor of New York City, Bill de Blasio, set up a “snitch line,” whereby New Yorkers were told to send authorities photos of fellow New Yorkers violating any of the quarantine laws. Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti similarly encouraged snitching, unabashedly using the term. …

Bill Weir, CNN chief climate correspondent, wrote an open letter to his newborn son. In it, he wrote of his idealized future for America: “completely new forms of power, food, construction, transportation, economics and politics.”

You cannot get there without a police state.

If you love liberty, you must see that it is jeopardized more than at any time since America’s founding. 04/27/20 https://www.wnd.com/2020/04/dress-rehearsal-police-state/

Yes, Americans, it can happen here and has. As far as “snitches” go, in nearby Arroyo Grande they even set up a snitch hotline and app. Arroyo Grande is in San Luis Obispo County. According to a report on the local news near the time the ‘hotline’ was set up, there was a total of 1 person in San Luis Obispo County in the hospital for COVID-19. There are at least 5 hospitals in San Luis Obispo County.

The Bible warns of a coming totalitarian dictatorship to arise in Europe (cf. Revelation 13).

But prior to that fully coming, it has the following warnings that look to be applicable to the USA:

12 “Cry and wail, son of man; For it will be against My people, Against all the princes of Israel. Terrors including the sword will be against My people; Therefore strike your thigh. (Ezekiel 21:12)

5 Also they are afraid of height, And of terrors in the way (Ecclesiastes 12:5).

While the above most certainly includes what we tend to consider as violent acts of terrorism, it also looks to include terror caused by governments–like a police state. That last statement is also consistent with the following prophecy:

1 Hear my voice, O God, in my meditation;
Preserve my life from fear of the enemy.
2 Hide me from the secret plots of the wicked,
From the rebellion of the workers of iniquity,
3 Who sharpen their tongue like a sword,
And bend their bows to shoot their arrows — bitter words,
4 That they may shoot in secret at the blameless;
Suddenly they shoot at him and do not fear.

5 They encourage themselves in an evil matter;
They talk of laying snares secretly;
They say, “Who will see them?”
6 They devise iniquities:
“We have perfected a shrewd scheme.”
Both the inward thought and the heart of man are deep. (Psalms 64:1-6)

As posted here before, while you might think that if you have done nothing wrong, you have nothing to fear from surveillance, consider that many running the government of the USA consider that not supporting homosexual marriages, cross-dressing, abortion, ‘gender affirmation,’ etc. are extremist. Years ago, I saw someone once on a documentary that stated that people who believed in the millennium could not be trusted and should be considered as potential domestic terrorists. The fact that we in the Continuing Church of God would be considered pacifists, does not change the fact that since we hold to millennial and other biblical views that we will not be improperly classified by government employees with various agendas.

The USA is moving towards being a totalitarian state.

Its top leadership wants to stop aspects of the Bible from being taught.

Orwell’s 1984 by 2024? In 1949, the late George Orwell wrote a disturbing book about a totalitarian government called “nineteen-eighty four.” Despite laws that are supposed to protect freedom of speech and religion, we are seeing governments taking steps consistent with those that George Orwell warned against. We are also seeing this in the media, academia, and in private companies like Google, Facebook, and Twitter. With the advent of technology, totalitarianism beyond what Orwell wrote is possible. Does the Bible teach the coming a totalitarian state similar to George Orwell’s? What about the Antichrist and 666? Will things get worse? What is the solution? Dr. Thiel answers these questions and more in this video.
Canadian censoring of the Bible In 2017, Lauri Skori of the Battle River School board told a religious school in Alberta, Canada that it could not teach/read certain portions of the Bible. In 2002, a court in Canada ruled against one who referred to certain scriptures that some homosexuals objected to. In 2017, there was “An Act to Amend the Canadian Human Rights Act and Criminal Code” related to those who wish to be considered transgendered.
