    Anyone else remember when DHS, during the W admin, “discovered” that the biggest threat to the United States was domestic terrorism from right wing militia types?

    The RW nutjobs cried and cried because Obama administration was coming in, and “this is unfairly targeting Republicans, so UNFAIR!”, and they had some feelings about it, and so it was quickly buried and little done about it.

      I think the FBI said this more recently, around the Charleston church terrorist attack.

      Its a well know fact that terrorist attacks in the US are mostly US citizens, white, male, and with a history of domestic abuse.

        I wonder if they downplayed the fact that most of them are right wing, and not just vaguely right wing, but explicitly so.
