We reported, last Friday, on Catherine Herridge’s report of the Biden Administration’s efforts to label those who disagreed with COVID-19 vaccine mandates as “Domestic Violent Extremists”:

The Biden Administration labeled Americans who opposed the COVID-19 vaccination and mask mandates as “Domestic Violent Extremists,” or DVEs, according to newly declassified intelligence records obtained by Public @shellenberger @galexybrane and Catherine Herridge Reports. The designation created an “articulable purpose” for FBI or other government agents to open an “assessment” of individuals, which is often the first step toward a formal investigation, said a former FBI agent.

The report, which the Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, has declassified, claims that “anti government or anti authority violent extremists,” specifically militias, “characterize COVID-19 vaccination and mask mandates as evidence of government overreach.” A sweeping range of COVID narratives, the report states, “have resonated” with DVEs “motivated by QAnon.”

The FBI, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the National Counterterrorism Center (NCTC) coauthored the December 13, 2021 intelligence product whose title reads, “DVEs and Foreign Analogues May React Violently to COVID-19 Mitigation Mandates.”

The report cites criticism of mandates as “prominent narratives” related to violent extremism. These narratives “include the belief that COVID-19 vaccines are unsafe, especially for children, are part of a government or global conspiracy to deprive individuals of their civil liberties and livelihoods, or are designed to start a new social or political order.

We also pointed to earlier stories to surveil “Radical Traditionalist Catholics” as potentially “Racially or Ethnically Motivated Violent Extremists”. Yet, despite exposure of such, our good friends on the left have no sense of shame at all, and want to continue to regulate your beliefs. Todays left aren’t even trying to be subtle about it: they want to put legal controls on people with whom they disagree.

Tom Elliot tweeted a video of MSNBC hostess Jen Psaki Mecher, previously a high-level campaign staffer for Barack Hussein Obama, and then in both the Obama and Biden White House Communications Offices, interviewing former Director of the FBI James Comey;

MSNBC’s @jrpsaki: “(In the law enforcement sense), do you think there are laws that should be put in place that would help better manage [MAGA Republicans], that aren’t in place now?”

@Comey: “… (There are cultural impediments to doing this e: 15px;”>@Comey: “… (There are cultural impediments to doing this work.) Let’s say you work in the FBI. You know that one of the two political parties is, let me put it nicely, white supremacist-adjacent, at a minimum. And so why would you want to throw your career on that side of the line & be summoned to Capitol Hill to be asked, ‘Why are you pursuing these innocent groups?’”

And there’s more: the denizens of Bluesky, the Twitter — I refuse to call it 𝕏 — clone for liberals, waxed wroth that the Patriot Front held a rally outside the National WWI Museum and Memorial in Kansas City, marching downtown carrying flags and chanting. Lefties on Twitter did the same.

The story in The Kansas City Star noted that no arrests were made, no parade permit was required, and everything that was done in the march was apparently completely legal, but it also included denunciations by the local government officials. It was, as far as anyone can tell, peaceful and orderly, far moreso than the #BlackLivesMatter rioters following the deaths of such icons of civilization like the fentanyl-and-methamphetamine-addled, previously convicted violent felon George Floyd and young punk Michael Brown. The Patriot Front burned no buildings and assaulted no one, exercising their Freedom of Speech and of Peaceable Assembly in exactly the manner the Framers of the First Amendment would have approved.

The Philadelphia Inquirer’s Will Bunch naturally celebrated the marches in support of Mr Floyd, while the newspaper itself promoted the city’s homosexual and transgender “Pride March and Festival:”

While the Philly Pride 365 March and Festival officially take place Sunday, June 1, the entire weekend offers opportunities to celebrate LGBTQ joy, honor queer history, and connect with others through music, drag, food, and dance.

Philadelphia is among the most LGBTQ-friendly cities in the country, with one of the largest queer populations in any major metro area. It’s home to some of the nation’s oldest LGBTQ publications and ranks as one of the safest places for LGBTQ people to live and work, according to the Human Rights Campaign.

Remember: the Inky fired forced Executive Editor and Senior Vice President Stan Wischnowski to resign over his headline “Buildings Matter, Too” used — though later changed — in an article on the loss of historic architecture in the riots over the death of Mr Floyd in Minneapolis. I guess that’s not nearly as serious as the Patriot Front marching peaceably.

We don’t see people like Mrs Mecher or Mr Comey talking about a need to “better manage” the people rallying for something that is as controversial as the normalization of homosexuality and transgenderism, yet the left are simply aghast that the Patriot Front are allowed to march in support of their beliefs. From the results, wouldn’t it make more sense to “better manage” the Black Lives Matter marchers and activists, because they’re the ones who riot? But that’s not what the left would ever want.
