Federal Agency Trolling Social Media, Reporting ‘Domestic Violent Extremism’
Here’s an inside peek at how the Deep State is monitoring the free speech of people with whom it disagrees.
We received five pages of documents from the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA – a component of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS)) – revealing that CISA is trolling on social media and reporting on alleged “domestic violent extremism” (DVE).
We received these documents through a December 28, 2022, FOIA request for reports or communications from January 1, 2020, to the present regarding:
1. Credible or specific plans to attack electricity infrastructure.
2. Information or intelligence communicated with the private sector and state and local partners, regarding threats to electricity infrastructure.
3. Communications or briefings provided to the Electricity Sub-Sector Coordinating Council Charter regarding threats to electricity infrastructure.
4. Confirmed attacks on any electricity infrastructure by any person or group labeled as “domestic extremists” or “domestic terrorists.”
According to the documents, on December 31, 2020, CISA Central sent an email to NRMC-iRAC (National Risk Management Center [NRMC]) and a host of redacted email addresses, “Subject:…Threats to Electricity Industry”…The email is marked UNCLASSIFIED – FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY with the caveat (TLP:GREEN), meaning the information has limited dissemination and should not be disseminated outside the recipient’s organization without permission. The salutation of the email is to NRMC and CISA Intel. The email states:
CISA Central respectfully requests your assistance with answering the below request for information…Response requested NL T 1200 ET on 04 January 2021.
Requested Information:
-
- Credible intelligence regarding threats or risks to the electricity industry in connection with 5G (including 5G conspiracy-related theories).
- In preparation for the upcoming Electoral College count on January 6 in Washington DC, is there any credible intelligence regarding threats or risks to the electricity industry, including any DVE threats to the power grid or assets in/around the DC area.
A second email is predicated on the email above, dated December 31, 2020, from (redacted) sent to CISA Central and a host of redacted emails, with the Subject: RFI – DHS/CISA. The email states:
In light of both recent and upcoming events, the E-ISAC requests any unclassified information from DHS CISA that can be shared with utility members in the U.S. and Canada, on the following questions:
-
- As a follow-up to the recent incident in Nashville, do you have any credible intelligence regarding threats or risks to the electricity industry in connection with 5G (including 5G conspiracy-related theories)?
- In preparation for the upcoming Electoral College count on January 6 in Washington DC, do you have any credible intelligence regarding threats or risks to the electricity industry, including any DVE threats to the power grid or assets in/around the DC area?
Timeline: If any information is available and can be shared, a response by this Monday, January 4, 2021, would be greatly appreciated.
The email’s signature block is partially redacted, with the unredacted portion reading, “Principal Analyst, Physical Security, Electricity Information Sharing and Analysis Center (NERC), North American Electric Reliability Corporation.”
On February 24, 2021, CISA Central sent an email to CISA-Intel and a host of redacted email recipients with the Subject: …Threats to the Power Grid – Nationwide….The email is marked UNCLASSIFIED – FOR OFFICIAL USE ONL:
CISA Intel and NRMC, CISA Central respectfully requests your assistance with answering the below requested for information….
Response requested NL T 1700 ET on 26 Feb.
Requested Information: The E-ISAC requesting any information about increases in threats toward the North American power grid, or any intelligence about credible threats to the power grid.
Background Information: The E-ISAC discovered social media posts containing threatening information directed at the power grid. The E-ISAC is requesting any information about increases in threats toward the North American power grid, or any intelligence about credible threats to the power grid?
Threat 1: Sadako Poker (https://twitter[.]com/SadakoPoker) – Use of SILO is recommended for all defanged links. Also, be advised links contain offensive material.
-
- Individual describes themselves as an “armchair revolutionary.” A scan of their twitter page found the following two threads which contained threatening information. I was not able to determine Sadako Poker’s exact philosophy or affiliation, they referenced arguing with racists, but also shared potentially racist memes.
- Thread A: Retweeted another person’s thread (Bleppyman), that thread is also attached and described more before. But, essentially points out that bringing down 9 substations would cause society to collapse.
- Thread B: Mentioned taking down the power grid and blaming Antifa as a false flag operation. It is unclear on behalf of whom, but I take this to mean they are not Antifa aligned. Thread also seems specifically anti-government, and possibly pro-white race.
Individual 2: Bleppyman (https://twitter[.]com/bleppyman)
-
- Not sure exactly individuals’ philosophical affiliation, perhaps acerbic skeptic, seems to dislike left and right. Seems to spend a fair amount of time on race.
- There was one main thread, which split into two parts, which different people commented on, so I labeled those A and B and numbered them in order, since they wouldn’t fit on one page.
- Thread A: Responding to a video describing the grid as very fragile, aging infrastructure and citing a 2014 FERG study saying taking out 9 substations could cause nationwide blackout (see: ). Then ties that to Metcalf. People pointed out that this is akin to terrorism talk, threat of arrest. Noted a historic attack on French Nuclear facility (1982, communist group attacked plant in construction with 5 anti-tank rockets. Article in screenshot: ). Note that all electrical grids are unprotected and that comms are also vulnerable. Vague threat against 9 substations, couched as a joke. A couple supportive comments: “Based, death to America.” “Stop giving me ideas LOL” “Whitepilled again” [Note: not a racial reference, apparently reference to hope and optimism]
- Thread B: Focusing on how to damage substations. Identifies coolant system on transformers, and suggests rifles (using euphemisms for rifles). Same reference to Metcalf as above. 1984 reference (picture). Discussion on euphemisms for rifles.
These documents are an example of how the Deep State CISA agency trolls social media to snoop on Americans. The woke protocol sweeping the federal bureaucracies allows CISA snoopers to target individuals who are supposedly sharing First Amendment-protected content.
(We have been in the forefront of uncovering government efforts to censor free speech and suppress opposition.
In June, we uncovered heavily redacted records from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) in a FOIA lawsuit showing state election officials in the days before and after the 2020 election flagging online content deemed “misinformation” and sending it to the Center for Internet Security (CIS), a DHS-funded nonprofit, the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), the Election Integrity Partnership (EIP), and others. These records detail federal-state censorship coordination in the 2020 Election.
In December 2023, we received records from DHS that showed a close collaboration between CISA and the leftist Election Integrity Partnership (EIP) to engage in “real-time narrative tracking” on all major social media platforms in the days leading up to the 2020 election.
In November 2023, we obtained records from DHS showing that CISA communicated during the 2020 election campaign with the Election Integrity Partnership (EIP), which was created to flag online election content for censorship and suppression.
In May 2022, YouTube censored our video about Biden corruption and election integrity issues in the 2020 election. The video, titled “Impeach? Biden Corruption Threatens National Security,” was falsely determined to be “election misinformation” and removed by YouTube, and our YouTube account was suspended for a week. The video featured an interview with me. We continue to post its video content on our Rumble channel (
In July 2021, we uncovered records from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), which revealed that Facebook coordinated closely with the CDC to control the Covid narrative and “misinformation” and that over $3.5 million in free advertising given to the CDC by social media companies.
In May 2021, we revealed documents showing that Iowa state officials pressured social media companies Twitter and Facebook to censor posts about the 2020 election.
In April 2021, we published documents revealing how California state officials pressured social media companies (Twitter, Facebook, Google (YouTube)) to censor posts about the 2020 election.
We have produced a four-part documentary, “Censored and Controlled,” that details the coordinated effort by the FBI and other government agencies and Big Tech to censor and suppress information on topics such as Hunter Biden’s laptop, Covid-19, and election debates.)
Judicial Watch Sues for Biden Climate Czar John Podesta’s Records
The Harris/Biden administration is in cover-up mode on all types of matters.
We were forced to file a FOIA lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Energy for records regarding Joe Biden’s Climate Czar John Podesta and/or his brother Tony Podesta that are tied to the lobbying firm Podesta.com (Judicial Watch, Inc. v. U.S. Department of Energy (No. 1:24-cv-02174))
We sued after the Energy Department failed to respond to an April 3, 2024, FOIA request for access to:
1. All emails between any official or employee of the Department of Energy and any email address terminating in the domain “Podesta.com.”
2. All agendas, briefing materials, notes, or other records created in preparation for, during, or pursuant to any meeting between any official or employee of the Department of Energy and Anthony Podesta and/or Helen Hagerty. For purposes of clarification, Hagerty is a lobbyist with the firm Podesta.com.
John Podesta in March replaced John Kerry as Joe Biden’s U.S. Special Presidential Envoy for Climate (Climate Czar), overseeing the implementation of the Inflation Reduction Act, which has been called “the largest green slush fund in American history,” and coordinating interagency efforts to advance the Biden administration’s climate agenda. Specifically, Podesta is in charge of allocating funds for clean energy projects and ensuring that they align with the administration’s goals of reducing carbon emissions and transitioning to renewable energy sources, including major infrastructure projects related to the energy grid.
Concerns have been raised by The Washington Free Beacon about potential conflicts of interest arising from John Podesta advising the Biden administration on climate policy while having close ties to Podesta.com, a lobbying firm co-founded by his brother, Tony Podesta:
His [John’s] brother Tony Podesta could reap the benefits as a longtime lobbyist for foreign Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) companies—including one founded by a Russian energy oligarch.
***
“It’s no secret that John Podesta is the person behind this moratorium … Congress should take a very hard look at the fact that his own brother stands to financially benefit from a restriction of U.S. LNG on the global market, whether it be from his past work with the Qataris or current reported work with Russian-backed entities with interest in LNG.”
Simply put, John Podesta and the Biden-Harris administration can’t be trusted. That the Biden-Harris ‘Energy’ Department is hiding documents in violation of FOIA about John Podesta is all you need to know.
We have been relentless in using FOIA to uncover the covered-up bribery and influence peddling.
In October 2024, we published an Investigative Bulletin titled “John Podesta: The Scandal Master Returns,” which recounts:
Students of scandal took note when President Biden announced the appointment of one of the dirtiest figures in presidential politics as his clean energy czar. John Podesta, the White House said, would step in as “Senior Adviser to the President for Clean Energy Innovation and Implementation,” overseeing the new Inflation Reduction Act’s “expansive” energy and climate provisions. Expansive it is, Podesta is now in charge of a $370 billion pot of federal cash and incentives approved under the new law. History suggests he will not be shy in deploying the federal funds to reward Democratic Party allies, punish opponents, and protect Joe Biden.
On March 8, 2024, we published a Corruption Chronicles article examining how a Chinese Mining Co. that was sold to a Swiss firm hired Biden’s new Clean Energy Czar John Podesta’s brother Tony to Lobby the United States Government.
In May 2018, we released State Department records showing the Podesta Group working on behalf of the pro-Russia Ukrainian political group “Party of Regions.” The records also showed longtime Obama and Clinton counselor John Podesta lobbying on behalf of his brother’s firm.
I’ll be sure to report back to you if and when we are able to extract any documents on this latest Clinton-ally cover-up!
Criminal Aliens “Committing Crimes Against Americans at An Alarming Rate”
Being out and about in our cities is becoming increasingly dangerous, thanks to the Biden-Harris border invasion. Our Corruption Chronicles blog reports.
Of the millions of illegal immigrants who have entered the United States under the Biden administration’s radical open border policies, over 617,000 have criminal records and they are victimizing Americans and terrorizing communities throughout the nation. “The consequences are dire, with illegal aliens committing crimes against Americans at an alarming rate,” according to a report published by the House Judiciary Committee. “The Biden-Harris Administration’s radical policies ensure that criminal illegal aliens can remain in the United States indefinitely, even after they have committed a crime.” The document focuses on the cases of four illegal immigrants from Venezuela who viciously attacked a man on a Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) train earlier this year. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) released one of the men inside the U.S. in 2022 and the other three in 2023 after crossing the Mexican border. Three of the men were on pretrial release after shoplifting arrests when they committed their most recent crime in the Windy City.
In February, the Venezuelan migrants—Yonnier Jose Guasamucare-Garcia, Carlos Luis Carreno-Carreno, Johandry Fernando Loyo-Rodriguez, and Wilker Miguel Gutierrez Sierra—were arrested in connection with a “violent knifepoint attack” on a 49-year-old man riding a CTA train on a Saturday afternoon. The victim was put into a “vicious chokehold” that left him unconscious and was robbed of money and a cellphone. The four illegal aliens listed their home address as state-funded migrant shelters when they got arrested. A local news stationreported that the perpetrators were 18 to 22 years old and quoted a public defender confirming that at the time they were “all staying in area shelters.” One of the Venezuelans entered the U.S. under a special program for Unaccompanied Alien Children (UAC) that has welcomed nearly half a million migrants under the age of 18 in the last few years. As of July 2, 2024, three of the Venezuelan criminals remained in the custody of Chicago law enforcement officials, but one was released with an electronic monitoring device.
Files obtained by federal lawmakers reveal that Guasamucare-Garcia entered the U.S. in Eagle Pass, Texas on September 18, 2022, as a UAC and claimed to have an uncle in Houston. He was released to a sponsor and about a year later was arrested in Chicago for retail theft. Less than a year later Carreno-Carreno also crossed into the U.S. in the Eagle Pass area and “claimed a credible fear of return to his home country.” He was released on his own recognizance with a Notice to Appear (NTA) in Chicago immigration court on May 20, 2026. A few months later he was arrested in Chicago for shoplifting. Loyo-Rodriguez also entered the U.S. near Eagle Pass in July 2023, the records show. He voluntarily walked back to Mexico after a U.S. asylum officer told him about a special parole program for Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans, and Venezuelans that required him to leave and apply via the CBP One app, though he never did and instead about a month later crossed the border near El Paso. His file says that Border Patrol determined he was “likely to abscond,” but the agency released him into the country anyway. A few months later Loyo-Rodriguez was arrested in Chicago for shoplifting. Gutierrez Sierra was encountered by Border Patrol near El Paso in late September of 2023. He was released inside the country “due to lack of space” and was given an NTA in a Houston immigration court on January 24, 2024.
The Venezuelans’ case helps illustrate the real-world consequences for American citizens of the Biden-Harris immigration policies, the House Judiciary Committee points out, adding that the effect of those policies will be felt for years to come. “For more than three-and-a-half years, President Joe Biden and “border czar” Vice President Kamala Harris have orchestrated the largest mass release of illegal aliens into the country in American history,” the congressional panel writes. “Well over 7 million illegal aliens are now in the United States because of the Biden-Harris Administration’s radical immigration policies. The results are all too predictable: cities overwhelmed, public services crushed, and communities shattered by the criminality of some illegal aliens.”
Until next week…
