Department of Homeland Security is urging local police to consider a wide range of protest activity as violent tactics, including mundane acts like riding a bike or livestreaming a police encounter.
Threat bulletins issued during last month’s “No Kings” protests are almost certain to accelerate domestic unrest.
DHS expects the demonstrations to “continue and grow across the nation” as protesters focused on other issues shift to immigration.
Authorities have increasingly emphasized control of demonstrations through early intervention, surveillance, and disruption.
Infrastructure initially designed to combat terrorism now often serves to monitor street-level protests.
Fusion centers have increasingly issued bulletins flagging protest slogans, references to police brutality, and solidarity events as signs of possible violence.
Surveillance of protesters has included the construction of dossiers (known as “baseball cards”).
