    Historically, the intelligence agencies have opposed leftism and equality movements, and played with kids gloves where right wing is concerned. This is because right wing policies tend to be backed by the elite, who butter the bread of the agencies.

      Agree 100% and it has always been frustrating to see right wing groups get a pass for what boils down to “mild” terrorism. I just think that, given the current US political climate, it’s detrimental to lump the parties together. I’m only a defender of the Dem Party when in contrast to the GOP. Otherwise there’s a litany of grievances I’d aim at them.
