The Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Department of Homeland Security are ramping up electronic surveillance of so-called “domestic terror” subjects to include those out of sympathy with COVID mandates and those who oppose vaccinations, said Yahoo News.
“The online posts discussing targeting politicians, migrants and mass transit systems in response to vaccination mandates, were flagged by the Department of Homeland Security and sent to law enforcement for further investigation, according to internal intelligence reports obtained by Yahoo News,” said the online news publisher.
Yahoo said that they became aware of the change after DHS issued a regular bulletin that said that while DHS was not aware on any concrete plans for attacks, domestic terrorists “will continue to exploit online forums to influence and spread violent extremist narratives and promote violent activity. The ongoing global pandemic continues to exacerbate these threats,” according to the text.
Leftists have been advocating for an expanded definition of domestic terrorism to include those who oppose mandates and vaccinations.
