    TBH, I’m more worried about what the domestic dipshits might do than foreign. Article doesn’t give much details on the nature of the threats, though.

      Has there even been a terrorist attack in the US since January 6th? Why doesn’t police/TSA etc. profile Maga instead of people of colour?

        Cause MAGA and Police are generally one in the same. Attend the same rallies, wear the same swastikas and white hoods.

        Because the police are on their side.

      Couldn’t agree more

      NGL with the kind of chatter going on with the domestic dip shits if their God King loses this November it has me a bit nervous.

        The long term fallout from him winning is a lot scarier.

        If he wins, that’ll make me more nervous. This is certainly the most important election of our lifetime.

        Already lost once and nothing happened. Maybe their hopes getting dashed a second time could inspire something, but there is a lot of loud cowards in their lot.

          I wouldn’t say nothing happened

          They did try something on Jan 6th

          It failed (thankfully) but they did try something

          We had our Beer Hall Putsch, now I’m waiting for our Reichstag Fire.

          And what the billionaire Trump backers don’t realize is that they will be the target of our Night of Long Knives.The puppets of billionaires do not aim to remain so.

      I would highly encourage people to look at the motives of the OKC bombing committed by Timothy McVeigh. Gun culture, etc. It’s been a long evolution of similar ideas. What’s scares me though is these ideas becoming normalized and mainstream. Best exemplified by MAGA embracing the big lie and all the shit related to J6th.

    There is no way I was expecting to hear something like this ahead of an election…

    Ill believe it when I see it. Sounds like diversion tactics to keep us worried about problem x when we should be concerned about problem y

    We’re already having problems with terrorists. They’re local.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
