Donald Trump Followers Targeted by FBI as 2024 Election Nears
The federal government believes that the threat of violence and major civil disturbances around the 2024 U.S. presidential election is so great that it has quietly created a new category of extremists that it seeks to track and counter: Donald Trump's army of MAGA followers.
The challenge for the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the primary federal agency charged with law enforcement, is to pursue and prevent what it calls domestic terrorism without direct reference to political parties or affiliations—even though the vast majority of its current "anti-government" investigations are of Trump supporters, according to classified data obtained by Newsweek.
"The FBI is in an almost impossible position," says a current FBI official, who requested anonymity to discuss highly sensitive internal matters. The official said that the FBI is intent on stopping domestic terrorism and any repeat of the January 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol. But the Bureau must also preserve the Constitutional right of all Americans to campaign, speak freely and protest the government. By focusing on former president Trump and his MAGA (Make America Great Again) supporters, the official said, the Bureau runs the risk of provoking the very anti-government activists that the terrorism agencies hope to counter.
"Especially at a time when the White House is facing Congressional Republican opposition claiming that the Biden administration has 'weaponized' the Bureau against the right wing, it has to tread very carefully," says the official.
DOJ ‘Asked Me to Lie About President Trump’ for Indicting Him: Proud Boys' Enrique Tarrio
'They were trying to coerce me into signing something that’s not true.'
Tarrio, who was sentenced recently for 22 years for his participation in the Jan. 6 breach, reveals how the DOJ coerced him to connect Trump with the incident.
Henry “Enrique” Tarrio Jr., former chairman of the Proud Boys who was recently sentenced to prison, claimed that federal authorities allegedly tried to coerce him into signing a false statement implicating former President Donald Trump in the Capitol breach incident.
Mr. Tarrio, accused of seditious conspiracy to attack the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, was sentenced to 22 years in federal prison on Sept. 5. In a subsequent interview with media outlet Gateway Pundit, Mr. Tarrio said that prosecutors from the Department of Justice (DOJ) wanted him to sign a statement that proved “through several degrees of separation and connections, Tarrio had communicated with Trump regarding ‘plans’ for January 6.”
“They asked me to lie about President Trump in order to indict him,” he said. “I told them to pound sand, and because I refused to lie about President Trump, it cost me twenty-two years of my life.”
“The truth is, I could have been home,” said Mr. Tarrio. “I could have been home a long time ago. I could be in my warm [...]bed right now, laughing at the world, without a problem … and all I had to do in order to do that was lie about Trump. All I had to do was confirm a lie.”
According to Mr. Tarrio, the DOJ allegedly approached him with the cooperation deal around October last year, before Jack Smith was appointed as a Special Counsel to investigate President Trump.
“Everything they wanted me to say is fabricated,” he said. “This is how they are going to try to present evidence for Trump’s trial … Find a bunch of people that do not want to go to jail to make up a story just to avoid jail time.”
“I want to be unequivocally clear—I have no connection to President Trump or anyone in his family whatsoever. The connection simply just does not exist and never did.”
Biden OKs Venezuela Oil Imports After OPEC+ Production Cut Disaster. CARACAS- The Biden administration, through the Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), issued a license to California-based Chevron on Saturday that allows the company to produce and export oil from Venezuela.
OFAC specifically states that Chevron is allowed to engage in the “sale to, exportation to, or importation into the United States of petroleum or petroleum products produced by the Chevron JVs,” meaning Chevron’s joint ventures in Venezuela.
The renewable license, initially valid for a period of six months and revocable at any time, prohibits any kind of taxes or royalty payments from Chevron to the Maduro regime. It also prohibits the payment of dividends of any kind to Venezuela’s state-oil company Petroleos de Venezuela (PDVSA) or any entity in which PDVSA has a majority stake.
The license also bans Chevron from engaging “in any transaction or dealing in or related to goods or services of Iranian origin” as well as any transaction involving entities in Venezuela owned or controlled by Russia. In the case of Iran, the Islamic nation has provided continuous aid to the Maduro regime in the repairing of Venezuela’s rundown oil refineries after years of socialist management brought them to the brink of complete ruin Iran has begun to refine upwards of 100,000 barrels of its own oil per day in Venezuela’s El Palito refinery, located in Carabobo State.
