Far-right extremists pose rising threat in North Texas around election, FBI's Dallas office says


The FBI’s Dallas field office warned law enforcement this week that far-right extremist groups are likely to expand their influence and could pose a violent threat in North Texas, especially between the Nov. 3 election and January’s presidential inauguration.

The election could serve as a “potential flashpoint,” says a field office report that was first made public by The Nation.

The field office’s report — marked “unclassified/law enforcement sensitive” — says the fringe boogaloo movement is likely to step up its violent anti-government rhetoric and criminal activities, increasing the threat of violence in North Texas.

I guess we just saw a run up to this at the Denton Buc-ees. That goon-thug did get arrested. Keep safe out there, everyone and remember to always be aware of your surroundings!
