Tucker: This is worse than we thought

good evening and welcome to Tucker Carlson tonight there was a lot going on right around the time of the last presidential inauguration so you may have missed it on his very first day as President Joe Biden ordered federal law enforcement and intelligence agencies to prepare a review of how the administration should fight terrorism by last June that report was complete it concluded that after more than 20 years Islamic terror is no longer the greatest threat to this country instead the agencies declared that domestic political extremism is quote the most urgent terrorism threat the United States faces today that's a very Stark assessment so you have to ask who exactly are these terrorists who threaten us so urgently and they're not who you might expect the report did not even mention the BLM riots the deadly Bill Ellen riots that had just taken place there wasn't a word about antifa there was nothing about the gunman who murdered 800 Americans in the city of Chicago last year many of them children no they weren't there instead the biod administration declared that the quote most lethal elements of today's domestic Terror threat are political conservatives they're people who disagree with Joe Biden now that report was released almost exactly six months ago six months ago this Friday it received relatively little attention and hasn't since and no major news organization even asked the most obvious question these terrorists who threatened us where are they if Trump voters are really the most quote lethal threat that our country faces today where all the people they've killed that's not an easy question to answer just look at the numbers which are fairly tidally kept take a look at all the Americans who died by violence over the past 12 months and there are many thousands and thousands of Americans I'm going to ask a simple question how many of them were killed by right Wingers for political reasons not many or since we're talking about threats here pose the question another way are you more in danger walking through a neighborhood that votes 90 percent Democrat or a neighborhood that votes 90 percent Republican come on this claim is ridiculous on its face there is no substantial right-wing Terror threat in this country certainly not in relative terms there just isn't and no one's shown there is the White House knows this of course they can read the numbers as well as anyone else can so they're working hard to create the illusion of that threat much hangs on their ability to do that you may remember the story this fall about a group called The National School boards Association which sent a letter to the feds asking the doj to take a look at parents who don't like their kids curriculums well the justice department responded immediately to that letter talk about customer service days later the Attorney General announced the FBI would investigate moms who dared to complain at school board meetings as potential terrorists many people were shocked by this story but we just learned it's worse even than we thought it was a New Freedom of Information Act request has revealed that the national school boards Association asked the feds to investigate parents because the feds asked them to ask the feds to investigate parents see how that works apparently the Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona told School Board administrators to write their letter to the White House the White House Then used that letter as a pretext to begin a Crackdown on parents see how that works the snake eating its tail when you don't have enough domestic terrorists to justify a political Purge then you just go ahead and create them and that's exactly what they've been doing this week the campaign against this new American Al Qaeda entered a new and very ominous phase again little noticed by the national media this Tuesday two days ago the doj announced the creation of a new domestic terrorism unit what will it do well it will Target quote anti-authority ideologues anti-authority audio logs now keep in mind this country was founded by people who were anti-authority audio logs that's why they created America and baked the idea of opposing Authority so it doesn't get too big and take over your life into our founding documents these ideas are Central to the American idea in fact they are the American idea but in this Administration they are now crimes here's Matt Olson the Assistant Attorney General explaining we Face an elevated threat from domestic violent extremists that is individuals in the United States who seek to commit violent criminal acts and furtherance of domestic social or political goals domestic violent extremists are often motivated by a mix of ideologies and personal grievances we've seen a growing threat from those who are motivated by racial animus as well as those who ascribe to extremist anti-government and anti-authority ideologies I've decided to establish a domestic terrorism unit to augment our existing approach this group of dedicated attorneys will focus on the domestic terrorism threat who's the threat to the country that guy is the threat to the country and the people working for him and those propping him up and the people spreading the core lie here which is that American citizens who distrust the government or don't like its policies are terrorists just today on MSNBC Jason Johnson one of its contributors described the entire Republican party as a terrorist organization so you can see where this is going again and we're quoting now this is the Assistant Attorney General we have seen a growing threat from those who subscribe to anti-government and anti-authority ideologies really is that threat growing is it true let's see here that threat is being used to justify the creation of this agency but it's not rooted in reality 27 years ago back in 1995 you'll remember 168 people were murdered in the Oklahoma City bombing another 700 were injured now the investigation into what happened that day involved nearly 30 000 interviews investigators gathered seven pounds seven thousand pounds of evidence we could go on it was an enormous investigation attorney general Garland by the way was part of it at the time here's the point despite the size of that investigation no one suggested even hinted that we might need to create a new domestic Terror division within the doj to handle the problem no the whole thing was handled by FBI field offices as things like this had been for many decades the FBI field offices did their jobs the man accused of doing it got the death penalty and you may have noticed it didn't happen again and then Joe Biden became president and the number of so-called domestic Terror investigations more than doubled so the question is what exactly are they investigating if there's no substantial death toll from these terrorists in our midst what exactly are the feds looking into well they're taking a close look at crimes like the plot to kidnap Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer a plot that helped your political fortunes considerably would it consist of well that conspiracy in the end turned out to have more FBI agents and informants involved than would be kidnappers the guy the FED said were running it turned out to be homeless he was living in the basement of a vacuum repair shop his friends called him Captain autism and they called him that for a reason he wasn't the ringleader of anything he couldn't have been the whole thing was ridiculous but it stoked the storyline that was politically expedient and so the media uncritically promoted it again and again as if it were real the media's job by the way to remind you is to push back against government statements to find out if they're actually true because it turns out politicians may say things for political reasons and it's the media's job to discern truth from spin the media's job is not to act as spokesman for the people in power and yet that's what they're doing now the doj in case you haven't noticed has decided the January 6th protesters are the real terrorists they're the insurrectionists you keep hearing about and yet weirdly as of just today's two days ago not one American citizen had actually been charged by the federal government within surrecting watch them admit that has anyone been charged with the crime of insurrection following January 6th I I am not aware that anyone has been charged with that that particular offense even if it is a an offense I I just am not aware of that oops they can't actually be insurrectionists if no one has committed Insurrection that's pretty embarrassing apparently the doj finally realized how embarrassing it was so about 48 hours after the testimony you just saw and more than a year after January 6th today the feds announced that they will charge someone with sedition after all now if you've got any questions about the timing of these charges or the Merit of the Sedition case the doj just announced the bite Administration would like to remind you to keep those questions to yourself and just to make certain you do keep them to yourself or unable to share them with anyone else today Joe Biden also announced a Crackdown on the news media as he put it a Crackdown on anyone who spreads quote disinformation and misinformation about his government watch if you haven't gotten vaccinated do it personal choice impacts us all our hospitals our countries I make a special appeal to social media companies and media Outlets please deal with the misinformation and disinformation that's on your shows it has to stop the misinformation that's on your shows yeah message received it has to stop Joe Biden says so that means that big Tech and media organizations have to do what he says just like his vax mandate found unconstitutional today by the way it'll still be enforced because big businesses rely on the government to exist they take government money they are regulated from the very top to the very bottom by the government so it takes a lot to defy the president of the United States if he tells you to do something you'd better do it what Joe Biden is telling media companies to do today is to censor their content so it doesn't contradict his decrees Now CNN has no problem with this in fact they made fun of what Joe Biden said today they made fun of his call for censorship not because it's obviously an unconstitutional which it is but because it wasn't quite fascist enough one of those weird looking media reporters over at CNN wrote this quote I'm sure the Murdoch's will get right on this now that this special appeal has been made exclamation point so they understand exactly what's going on here Joe Biden is targeting Fox News for censorship his call for censorship by the way comes after hundreds of doctors and scientists called on Spotify to adopt a misinformation policy that would shut down Joe Rogan's podcast Rogan recovered from covet without the facts and they hate him for it so it's not just the government of course it's people acting on behalf of the government calling for the same thing which is censorship of political opinions what you're seeing here is dangerous there's no other way to describe it far more dangerous than domestic Terror threat they've been bloviating about for the last three days it contravenes the first amendment under the First Amendment the government cannot coordinate with private actors to censor Free Speech period Supreme Court has made that very clear over centuries and yet that's exactly what's happening Joe Biden did it today care to complain about that probably not you may have noticed what happens to people who complain too much Roger Stone for example complained an awful lot about the government he did it loudly often he did it for years and the doj didn't like it so in the end they accused Roger Stone the base of zero evidence whatsoever of colluding with Russia in the end they charged him with lying to Congress something that happens literally every day of the year but in his case they made it a felony threatened to send him to prison for the rest of his life in the meantime they sent a helicopter a boat an armed paramilitaries to his home at dawn after coordinating the raid with CNN really one of the darkest moments in civil liberties in recent history we still have the tape let's watch it again exclusive footage you're looking at right now from CNN as the FBI arrives at Roger Stone's residence in Fort Lauderdale Florida taking him into custody they arrived before Dawn there before 6A or just after 6 a.m a dozen officers were told four so they coordinate with CNN just to make sure it's all preserved on tape to send the message to everybody else for the encouragement of the others that the French used to say and then they send guys with automatic weapons to your house to shut you up to destroy you now the people who ordered that rage should have been brought up on charges themselves but they weren't they're promoted and now thanks to Joe Biden they have more power to harass their political enemies do you feel safer hey

He can be a little click-baity sometimes, but he makes a lot of very, very good points here.

Silencing the opposition is a common authoritarian tactic

Declaring Constitutionalists the greates threat to the government and terrorists, becomes a self fulfilling prophecy.
