Your Republican government cut funding for a program called CVE – Countering Violent Extremism. They re-allocated the money from white domestic extremism and focused totally on foreign, middle eastern, Muslim extremism. They did so contrary to the data.

A reminder: 10 years ago an internal Homeland Security report warned about the danger of right-wing domestic terrorism. Republicans learned about it, rose up in outrage, and demanded that efforts to counter the threat be canceled 1/ https://t.co/ZEPAjsY749

I spoke to the DHS analyst who warned in 2009 that right-wing extremism was on the rise — he got thrown under the bus by the Obama admin after a Republican backlash.

He says Jan. 6 is just the beginning.https://t.co/ax5Gd6RKwn https://t.co/XSD94qitND

Tucker Carlson said last night that white supremacy isn't a "real problem" in the United States. This is almost too ridiculous to fact check, but here are a few numbers from me on the extent of the problem: pic.twitter.com/XFPY3BguD9

The lockstep determination of the GOP to ignore the implications of Trump's language, or even to acknowledge the language for what it is, is indivisible. Is there any elected Republican who has called out Trump's use of "invasion" language common in white supremacist circles? https://t.co/HO7a2rRsFy

President Trump needs to condemn white nationalism as aggressively as he condemns CNN.https://t.co/XtyUruG6vM

National Review: “we are contending here not w/ another ‘lone wolf,’ but with the fruit of a murderous and resurgent ideology—white supremacy—that deserves to be treated by the authorities in the same manner as has been the threat posed by militant Islam.” https://t.co/clT9FhBnqM

My latest @BulwarkOnline examines the Civil War 2 fetish on the right, and its ties to white nationalist race war fantasies. 1/https://t.co/bn3N2sFr6K

I'm so glad you brought this up. Actually, experts on white nationalism actually say we should use the word because this is a political ideology. This isn't some isolated madman but rather someone who is part of a movement. Here is @kathleen_belew https://t.co/gvei7n31WS

One of the lead stories on the Sydney Morning Herald, early Monday morning in Australia:

"US in the midst of a white nationalist terrorism crisis"https://t.co/pSsF2dNSaZ

"Deadly violence heightens concerns about domestic terrorism and white supremacists."

This @LATimes story was first published on Friday. Then updated today with the newest example.https://t.co/92xNNlxBjO

Stop calling these shootings an American sickness. White nationalism is an ideology. It’s a sick one, but hate isn’t the same as insanity. This rhetoric is a cover and a cop out. White nationslism is a CHOICE!!! #ElPasoShooting

When I was in Congress 8 yrs ago, our biggest domestic terror threat was Muslim American men radicalized by Islamism.

Today, our biggest domestic terror threat is white American men radicalized by white supremacy.

Conservatives must be honest enough to acknowledge this.

Read this @FrankFigliuzzi1 piece from two days ago sadly predicting this. You cannot incite hatred without there being consequences. https://t.co/22aI04DDWA

As with Trump’s refusal to listen to our Intelligence agencies and combat Russia’s cyberwar on all 50 states’ voting systems and on U.S. sovereignty, this is gross dereliction of presidential duty, a violation of his oath of office. https://t.co/fkUTXzgbfu
