Homeland Security released a new threat assessment Tuesday saying White supremacists are “the most persistent and lethal” domestic extremist threat to the U.S.Acting Secretary Chad Wolf also warned of anarchist violence stemming from racial justice protests, ongoing election threats from Russia, China and Iran, and foreign-origination epidemics like COVID-19 as other dangers. But it was the announcement of White supremacists that had been anxiously anticipated. “I am particularly concerned about white supremacist violent extremists who have been exceptionally lethal in their abhorrent, targeted attacks in recent years,” Mr. Wolf said in the assessment.(Snip) “Since 2018 they have conducted more lethal attacks

So, tell me about ONE violent attack by these mythical 'white supremacist' groups. How about the NAME of a group?

Maybe they got a point. All those BLM protestors I see seem to be white folks. Those white supremacists are getting awfully sneaky these days.

The Deep State isn't even trying to be "deep", they are right out in front spreading disinformation in furtherance of the ongoing coup against President Trump.

White Supremacists = LIberal Democrats. Here in CT I'm surrounded by them. What the media would have you believe is that white supremacy is a mark of conservatives; but the truth is, white supremacy is in the DNA of every white liberal in this country. Every one of them who believed that they could speak for others based upon their own conviction and worldview, every one that thinks that they and they alone knows what's best for EVERYONE (whether they bothered to ask or not) and only their opinion matters, these are white supremacists. Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, Joe Biden, Bernie Sanders, every last one of them is a white supremacist.

Honestly, what is this guy talking about? Hasn't he been watching the riots, looting and arson, that have destroyed entire neighborhoods in cities all over America? Several billion dollars of damage has been done by the rioters, but exactly what, where, and who are the white supremicists to which this man is referring? It seems highly unlikely that today's anti-white, anti-American media could have failed to report any such news.

They have been setting this narrative up for a few years now.
Obama set the table by suggesting America will be remade.
Pushback was a given, the mechanisms to defeat that have been put in place.
The final obstacle is the court of public opinion, cancel culture is the left's coercive weapon.

Pure garbage from an over-bloated, worthless government agency that should be eliminated. We've seen more terrorism within this country in the past six months than we have ever seen from foreign sources and they have the audacity to call themselves "homeland security". It is time for white people to stand up to the attacks coming from within our own country. Don't count on DHS for help!

Yes. We taxpayers had our earnings and savings confiscated to fund such blatant and astonishing levels of deceit, stupidity, and incompetence. But then, consider the imbecile who bequeathed DHS upon us.

Along with the CIA, and the FBI, the DHS needs to be completely disbanded. They are all run by lying, corrupt, self-serving idiots and 99% of the lower minions are little to none better.
Come to think of it, throw in every other federal agency and the Federal Reserve while you are at it.

The only thing between this guys ears is cement. White supremacists are not the ones burning our cities down, looting, rioting, assaulting and shooting the police, beating up old people or killing blacks in black communities. This guy conveniently left out naming these lethal attacks. Yes, they have done some bad things, but today, right now, our biggest problems are Antifa & BLM who are attempting to overthrow our government. If anything the white supremacists are the democrats who want to shut down our country and control our lives by attacking our freedom.

The reporter lies about what Trump said at the debate.
"President Trump was challenged at last week’s presidential debate to denounce White supremacists and he did so, but also told them to “stand back and stand by.” He later delivered a more complete denunciation." This statement is based on the lie that the Proud Boys are White Supremacists. They are not. Trump never spoke anything about an actual White Supremacist group. None were mentioned at the debate.

Despite $billions in property destruction along with incalculable long-term economic damage caused by BLM and Antifa rioters, Homeland Security says White Supremacists are “the most persistent and lethal domestic extremist threat.” Chad Wolf is the leader. He sets the tone. He is clearly a swamp rat and needs to go.

Yet, he doesn't even name one single lethal event to substantiate his claim.
Mr. Wolf, though, strikes a somber tone on the issue, saying that among domestic violent extremists, “racially and ethnically motivated violent extremists — specifically white supremacist extremists — (WSEs) — will remain the most persistent and lethal threat in the homeland.”
And, he adds the word extremists (WSE's) as the one's who have committed the motivated violence.
It would be more helpful if he could list some incidents so we can all know more other than using such generalities.
Believe we all agree these WSE's would be the KKK and Neo-Nazi groups. I also wonder how many people they've identified who belong in these two groups?

The KKK is white, though not all whites need apply. They are White Anglo-Saxon Protestant Supremacists. However, while routinely terrorizing Blacks Catholics, Jews and immigrants the only political groups they routinely terrorizee were Communists and Republicans and they were the military arm of the Democrat party. So are they not a leftist group? The original Nazis' were National Socialists. Antifa appears to be a white supremacist group since we regularly see skinny white males and large white women lecturing and berating black police officers on their failures as persons of color. Clearly only a supremacist would lecture a person of another race on their failings as a member of their own race. Their political philosophy is certainly on the left since their manifesto identifies them as communist/Marxist. And of course Joe Biden, the current figurehead of the American left, is a white supremacists since he claims that he is the arbiter of who and who is not black (As when he explained to a black man: "if you're not voting for me you're not black"). And he and the other Democrats are promising the unrest and violence will continue unless they are elected. So I guess the somewhat befuddled director of homeland security is talking about left wing white supremacist extremists. Perhaps he should be excused from his current duties due to his manifest inability to present information of such vital importance in a clear and precise manner.

It is the narrative. All my friends who watch the MSM were sure the violence is caused by white nazi types. WE don't watch the national news. It is so obviously hateful, biased and plain out of kilter.

There are killings by white supremacists taking place, but they seem to be unhinged individuals.. I don't find any group attacks:
Timothy McVeigh
Dylann Roif
Frazier Cross
Wade Michael Page
Patrick Crusius
John T. Earnest
Santino William Legan (maybe)
Kevin William Harpham

I've heard this "white supremacist" BS for at least two decades. Meanwhile, Muslim terrorists have destroyed the WTC, and killed over 2,000 people in a single incident, Muslim terrorists have attacked nightclubs, office Christmas parties, and the Boston Marathon to name a few. Leftists anarchists and the communist Black Lives Matter have burned and looted whole sections of major cities, attacked Federal courthouses, blinded Federal police officers with laser pointers, shot commercial fireworks into police stations, and tried to set fire to police precincts with police inside. Does DHS really think we're that stupid?

The Coast Guard is a component agency of DHS, as are Customs and Border Protection. I've worked with Chad over the years and have never known him to be anything close to a liberal, much less a progressive/leftist. In 40 years of law enforcement and military service, I've not encountered any white supremacist, except those related to certain prison and outlaw biker gangs. Antifa and most of the rank and file BLMers are white leftist supremacists, so I wonder which corrupted law enforcement agency is feeding the Acting Secretary the questionable intel regarding violent threats and lethal attacks here in the US. Who and where are the victims of this violence? Are the alleged perps being caught and released like the members of Antifa and BLM? If not, where are they? Where are the films and pics of burning cities caused by White Supremacists?

Are they talking about "those dirty white boys" known as Antifa ? You would be hard pressed to find some "White supremacist" looting and burning.
