    Then maybe you need to get caught up with why Garland involved the FBI in yesterdays deposition. Then you will know what you're talking about.

    None of my "buddies" are unaware of the fact that it is a criminal offense to threaten someone with death or violence. You're thinking of your guys.

    No, that's likely your need since logic escapes the elusive counter points in your posts.

    Hmmm, you claimed the FBI is involved because parents are threatening and trying to intimidate members of school boards. Yet there isn't a single arrest in any state where a parent has done so.

    Then you claimed the FBI sometimes just helps out with civil matters. lol

    But Garland says he involved the FBI because of a letter he received from a school board and what he heard on the media.

    So according to you, logic escapes me if I don't take your assumptions over Garlands testimony?

    Maybe you should look up the definition of logic. lol

    I have read some claims that the DNC/Biden see parents organizing legally to fight the progressive indoctrination in schools at the local lever as something that can snowball and impact the national mid term elections. Ergo, the Garland/FBI intimidation. Speak out at a school board against CRT, etc. and be reported anonymously to an FBI tip line.

    I claim that the FBI is likely involved because the threats and intimidation against the school boards may be ORGANISED. If they are, then the FBI should be involved. Now, read my post carefully again.

    Your claim is just that. Your claim. It isn't Garlands or the FBIs claim. Maybe you should read more than just your post.

    Yep, and it totally fits into why the FBI is involved. My claim is logical - the FBI is involved because they are investigating evidence that the threats and intimidation against the school boards are possibly organized. You would prefer they to just ignore that possibility?

    Making more assumptions to back up your other assumptions?
    First you claimed the FBI sometimes just helps out local PDS. (That was pretty funny)
    Then you claimed the FBI helps out in civil matters. (Which they never have or will)
    Then you claimed its a civil rights issue.
    Then you claimed its because of Threats of physical harm against teachers and their families by whackos. (yet nobody has been arrested for such)
    Then you claimed its happening all over the country

    When you stabilize on what your claim is, let me know.
    Until then, Its not my problem that Garland didn't testify to your claims. You argument is with him.

    The FBI is involved to either confirm or debunk the School Boards claims of organized threats and intimidation. Why should it not be investigated? They maybe no organized threat or intimidation but the FBI's job is to assess that. Try to think critically about the reasons they are on the situation. I hope that's not too much to ask.

    If no federal crimes have been committed then why are the feds involved at all?

    BTW I hear this group has issued an apology for their letter now, will Garland retract his and apologize now? Will he explain what was this date he claimed showed an uptick was a bogus claim that he started this solely on the word of a highly partisan group and their baseless claims.

    National School Boards Association sorry for 'language' in letter that likened parents to domestic terrorists
    AG Merrick Garland instructed the FBI to take the lead on a task force to address threats against school officials

    "On behalf of NSBA, we regret and apologize for the letter," the NSBA said, noting that "there was no justification for some of the language included in the letter."

    What federal crime has been committed or alleged? What is the federal jurisdiction here? Where is this data Garland claimed justified his instructing every US attorney to immediately start hearings and report back within 30 days on this "terrorism"?

    Have federal arrests been made or federal charges filed? If not, you're just engaging in more of the faux poutrage and pearl-clutching that authoritarian regressives are infamous for.

    Sure. Just lay down and let them spade you under.
    The FBI is a symptom of an insecure democrat party with no mandate for change of the magnitude they are pushing, so they resort to authoritarianism.

    You have to have a federal crime to have a federal charge, what is the federal crime that was alleged to get the FBI involved?

    Thats cute seeing that Republicans have not even been able to secure the most votes in over a decade and the stunts y'all pull when you manage to “win”. Y’all have single handily destroyed one of the institutions the public trusted, the USSC, with your desperate power grabs through a twice impeached, twice voted against fraud.

    Do you believe the only reason the FBI can get involved in a case is “domestic terrorism”?

    If there’s no crimes they won’t be involved. Problem solved.

    They aren’t lawyers. Still doesn’t mean it’s ok to threaten them or get violent over disagreements.

    If not that then what is the federal crime and federal jurisdiction here? It is specifically what the NSBA cited in their letter to Garland, one it now appears the Biden administration had a role in creating.

    And now they are backtracking it, will Garland backtrack his actions and he letter?

    What is the FEDERAL JURISDICTION. The local authorities can charge and prosecute anyone who engages in violence.
