It was part of his plan to address “domestic terrorism.” Also don’t forget, Kathy Hochul preceded Trump in sending in the national guard to “fight crime” despite every statistic showing a drop in violent crime.

We are not only at war with Trump and the GOP, but the entire political class.

Neither of those articles mention anti-capitalism.

Try to do more than just cntrl+F.

As defined by the FBI and DHS, anarchist violent extremism encompasses the potentially unlawful use or threat of force or violence in furtherance of an anti-government or anti-authority violent extremist ideology that considers capitalism and centralized government to be unnecessary and oppressive.

Work backwards from that: if you're a leftist who considers capitalism to be oppressive, and you "threaten" to use your force (applying pressure, withholding labor, explicitly not violence as implied by "force or violence) to challenge government authority, congratulations, you're an anarchist violent criminal!

You know it tracks that Wray wouldn't be able to distinguish anti capitalism from anarchism. This is the dumbest fucking timeline.
