Newly declassified intelligence records have revealed that the Biden administration labeled Americans who opposed the COVID-19 vaccination and mask mandates as “Domestic Violent Extremists.”
The documents, which were declassified by DNI Tulsi Gabbard, show that they cutely abbreviated the term to ‘DVEs’.

Catherine Herridge, one of the journalists who obtained the records, notes “The designation created an “articulable purpose” for FBI or other government agents to open an “assessment” of individuals.”
NEW: Biden Administration Labeled Opponents Of Covid Mandates As “Domestic Violent Extremists,” Newly Released Documents Show
The designation infringed on the First Amendment and opened the door to investigating Americans for vaccine mandate skepticism.

A former FBI agent told Herridge that this “is often the first step toward a formal investigation.”
Herridge further reports:
The report… 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.
“It’s a way they could go to social media companies and say, ‘You don’t want to propagate domestic terrorism so you should take down this content,’” said former FBI agent Steve Friend.
Wow. Those violent extremists believing that COVID vaccines were potentially unsafe for young people.
It’s not like they were 100% correct and big pharma is being forced to admit this is exactly the case.
The FDA is requiring COVID vaccine makers Pfizer and Moderna to update their warnings about the possible risk of myocarditis and pericarditis. https://t.co/KWQ2WpuBI6

Herridge also reports that “The newly declassified report seems to draw a straight line between opposition to vaccine mandates and elevated levels of domestic terrorism.”
A separate February 2022 report called “Special Analysis: Joint Analytic Cell” investigates the “Sociopolitical Factors Amplifying Persistent Domestic Violent Extremist Threat.”

And will there be any consequences for the people who engaged in this behavior?
I think we all know.

Not unless Trump officially reverses all the pardons made with the autopen.
Every federal employee who acquiesced to this and colluded with the Biden Pretendership in its war against the American people needs to do hard prison time.

True, labeling concerned citizens as extremists was a big government overreach. People have a right to question mandates.

It’s every ounce as awful as we felt and suspected.

As the lawyer who filed the most lawsuits in America to challenge COVID restrictions, I find this appalling & un-American, and it will not deter me from continuing to urge members of Congress to overrule the cases that made this tyranny possible, starting with Jacobson v. Mass. https://t.co/upJCVWwhrZ
