The DOJ can say anything it likes. They lost all credibility and no one believes them anymore.

I mean, what they say determines whether you're going to jail or not
Does it though? It seems like they're going with their vibes more than the law. Wouldn't matter if you listen to them or not, piss law enforcement off and you're a terrorist. They'll find something you did to fit the bill.
I will be sure to do it then. Guess we're terrorists now.
Wait what, I never knew CPAC is filming immigration raids.
(Cuz CPAC said they're all domestic terrorists)
So, filming domestic terrorism is now domestic terrorism?
Yo dawg I heard you like domestic terrorism, so we put domestic terrorism into your domestic terrorism, so you can commit domestic terrorism while committing domestic terrorism.
Please U.S.A., Pimp my authoritarian police state! 🙏
kinda like how they made ag gag laws, so you can film animal abuse in plants and farms.
That's fucked up enough, but filming inside the plants and farms could be considered inside somebody else's private property. This seems like it could be applied to filming on a street corner or even your own home.

Good luck with that. I hope I get called to jury duty for one of those cases.
does no one remember the 2000s? the whole point of calling something terrorism is to circumvent due process. no jury, not even a lawyer.
How optimistic of you, to think there will be a trial. Those camps are ultimately for us all.
They're currently building a 30,000 bed facility in Guantanamo Bay, presumably to hold people they can't deport, like American citizen "domestic terrorists." Our very own CECOT.
“Domestic terrorists” 
You do not have an expectation of privacy in public. This is not doxing. That’s not even what doxing means.
Everything is dumb.
You assume this administration gives a shit about reason and rules.
Prosecute Flock for every camera that ever recorded ICE activity, even just a vehicle driving on the highway.
i bet flock also feeds into PALINTIR in every PD.
Create an app that takes Flock's incredible poorly secured data and uses it to track and publicly broadcast 24/7 the location of every ICE and federal law enforcement agent you can.
This amounts to lowering the bar for those willing to say "if I'm going to be a terrorist then fuck it" and start shooting. It's irresponsible and dangerous.

Terrorism has always been a convenient label for "official enemies".
I knew this was gonna happen. "terrorism" being defined as "violence and intimidation for political means" .... the authorities claiming that recording them is not only intimidation, but that intimidation is de facto the threat of violence!
"Speech is violence" is what they claim, which equates to political speech = terrorism.
It's for this reason I believe "terrorism" in and of itself shouldn't be a crime. But I digress.
[FTA} the Justice Department encourages federal prosecutors to press "domestic terrorism" charges against people for "doxing" law enforcement officers. [...] which the Justice Department insinuates is a threatening activity used to "silence opposing speech, limit political activity, change or direct policy outcomes, and prevent the functioning of a democratic society."
I saw this coming whenever they claimed terrorists were unlawful enemy combatants back in the early 2000s
All us smart people were just so unpatriotic! /s
Haha supreme court says we have a 1st amendment right to film law enforcement. Get fucked pedo lovers.
For now.
And being anti fascist is terrorism now too, hmm I'm beginning to think being a "terrorist" these days is pretty cool

No, don't let them have this one. Filming police does not, and never will, make you a terrorist.
Since we're renaming departments, maybe they should change the name to the Injustice Department, or the Department of Capricious Punishment or something more fitting.
That's straight up USA becoming a totalitarian state.
How does the American population keep accepting this development without doing anything about it?
propaganda works in keeping people in complacency, and keeping some of them high enough wage they wont revolt. also creating a culture helps with that.
Things are brewing
