And I wonder how many were going to focus on threat number one anyway, which is right wing domestic terrorism.
They're setting up the groundwork for terrorism.
And setting up ICE as the only game in town.
That really doesn't make sense, though, because they haven't had a problem with allowing terrorism to happen up to this point.
If the usa turned inward on itself any more it would become a black hole.
I'm no fan of dhs. But on a national scale. On a world scale, This is insane and dangerous. It's mind blowing how badly our government is behaving and the short sightedness of it all. Multiple countries at war or on the verge of war. Elimination of usaid and most foreign aid. Intelligence organizations decimated by layoffs and budget cuts. Internal conflicts rising and dissent growing. A paramility forming that can ignore our internal rules and arrest people on a whim...
This is what happens when the people in charge have no idea what they are doing.
This will take decades to sort out. Maybe more. And we have years more of exactly this sort of behavior.
The American empire is falling. Torn apart from the inside by greedy madmen.
As an American, I can't say I'm thrilled about it. But God damn it is happening quickly.
The attempt on my life has left me scarred and deformed, but I assure you my resolve has never been stronger.

the Jedi rebellion has been foiled. We stand on the threshold of a new beginning. In order to ensure our security and continuing stability, the Republic will be reorganized into the first Galactic Empire,***
This could be a grand opportunity for the people who aren't Nazis to take a swing.
Lights out, guerrilla radio
Fusion centers are still listening, and ICE is about to hire a fuck ton of analysts. I don't expect the NSA to play ball though, they're just going to sit in the background through all of this, they know the last time you scratched your privates.
I'm all for less DHS can we do with with border control and ice too? Maybe a dash of the FBI and CIA? Military too.
Looks like these were the guys who would have warned everyone when Iran was s ending someone over for revenge. I guess terrorism never happens if you close your eyes, cover your ears, and loudly say “LA LA LA. I CANT HEAR YOU. LA LA”
Id rather a terrorist get me then deal with TSA again
I thought they planned on funding ICE to a ridiculous degree, given that immigration is really that much of a problem...
Well DUH! They need that money to chase down Americans who are mean to Dear Leader on the internetz!
