Summary
Donald Trump’s administration cut major counter-terrorism research programs across agencies, sparking warnings from experts that the move will weaken U.S. defenses against far-right violence.
Cuts include $30m for academic studies, DHS funding for the University of Maryland’s terrorism and hate crime database, and the DOJ’s radicalization research.
Experts say this erases years of progress, undermines Trump’s pledges to fight antisemitism, and shifts focus away from the primary domestic threat: far-right extremism.
The FBI has also redirected resources toward gangs and leftist groups, raising safety concerns among researchers.
That’s because Donald Trump is a far right extremist.
“It’s not a bug, it’s a feature”
Exactly the point
That’s been on the unhinged far right to-do list ever since GWB’s admin found that the biggest threat to America is right wing extremism.
The incoming Obama admin had it buried because of all the POUTRAGE from the teabagger, oops, now I guess they are rebranded as magoff, wing of the party.
But the resentful babies never forgot.
