We absolutely should apply the DHS definition to crimes that match that definition. We should also prosecute those who put people's lives in danger in violent attacks motivated by a desire to suppress free and open elections to the fullest extent of the law.

Otherwise the terrorists win.

Domestic terrorist. She was attacked by a domestic terrorist. This crime would seem to meet the DHS definition.

We need to start calling this crap what it is.

MPD told the HCAO they do not intend to execute the warrant ‘for reasons of officer safety,'” the Minneapolis City Council said in a letter.

This... this boggles. This is almost Uvalde-level cowardice. What's the point of gifting military armored vehicles, gear, weapons, and training to police departments if they won't use them to execute an arrest warrant for attempted murder?

The command structure responsible needs to be regifted to other agencies that are bad at Google searches.
