Combating Domestic Violent Extremism Is No Longer a FEMA Priority

According to the unpublished bulletin, Fema funds from the states may not necessarily be reviewed. Instead, the beneficiaries of current and future grants need to reclassify the activities that are currently classified as the treatment of the extremism of domestic violence, and the projects in the new national priority areas have been suitable. These new priorities, which were announced last week, include protecting soft goals such as cybersecurity, electoral security sites (including verification that polling workers are American citizens “) and” support for the response of the border and enforcement crisis. “

The bulletin tells some examples of activities that can continue to be funded if they are reformulated to remove elements related to home violent extremism, including “converting an exercise on the table previously focused on DVE threats to one that treats a wide range of risk, including harsh weather, active fire accidents, or internet groups.” It should be stopped strictly reshape activities, “.

The separate FEMA document obtained by WIRED shows that finishing the financing currents of extremism works domestic violence in FEMA came in meetings with OMB. This document refers to a briefing on May 16 with OMB, and recounts a set of follow -up questions that Fema employees were working to treat until mid -July.

How do we make sure that no money is spent on domestic violence [sic] Extremism, “one bullet is asking.” Legally, how do we do that? “

The interpretation provided by FEMA employees suggested amending the open prizes packages to remove the minimum spending requirements to combat violent domestic extremism and “notify the recipient that any project previously agreed to confront violent domestic extremism is reprogrammed [national priority area]”The document acknowledges that” the strategy carries some legal risks because it changes the conditions of the open prize. “It states that FEMA employees were working on a information bulletin” to implement “change.

“We will update Omb when this is accomplished,” says the memo.

Extremism attacks have increased in recent years on power networks and other infrastructure. The Ministry of Energy recorded 185 physical and secret attacks on energy networks in 2023 alone, from only 96 in 2020. In February, the founder of the New Nazis Group was convicted of planning to attack the electrical networks in “Enhaza” [his]According to the Ministry of Justice, in July, the Ministry of Justice told the Ministry of Justice in July, in July, in July, a leader of the ancient anti -government warriors in a patrol said that any weather attack was part of a campaign from that group, which mistakenly assumed that the government had used the weather amendment to create the “weather weapon” that caused the floods in Texas.

However, over the past six months, government work has been aimed at tracking, analyzing, understanding and combating the extremism of domestic violence, which faced significant discounts. The Center and partnerships of the Prevention and Partnerships Center, a program located within the Ministry of National Security designed to prevent the extremism of domestic violence within the United States, has lost 20 % of its employees since the beginning of the year. It is currently led by a 22 -year -old former trainee from the Heritage Foundation, a right -wing organization that has composed the 2025 project, a document used as a political plan by the Trump administration most of this year. Last month, the Ministry of National Security announced that it will grant a “farce and wrong” managed by the Prevention and Partnership Programs Center, and to end the financing of “LBGTQ+” and “anti -biased initiatives”.
