In the last month there have been threats and attacks on Jewish Americans on college campuses and other places in the U.S. and a few days ago at the White House pro-Palestine protesters scaled the White House fence and vandalized monuments:
Pro-Palestinian protesters vandalized the White House fence and various buildings and businesses. They also defaced the statue of Benjamin Franklin.

Of the tens of thousands of protesters, police made only one arrest.
We need to restore law and order.

A federal manhunt is now underway!
No, not for any of those people -- but for a guy wanted in connection with the riot at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021:

The CBS News report says the area is "on edge," and that's by design. But I'll get to that in a minute.
There's no manhunt for any of those pro-Palestine protesters who tried to breach the fence and vandalized monuments, nor was there for BLM rioters from 2020 who assaulted police and burned down businesses. But if you wore a red hat at the U.S. Capitol on January 6th this is what you get:

"I look outside, there's two guys here with assault rifles. Two over there. Two over there. They were all over the place. I walked outside a little bit. I asked the officer. He said go inside," the neighbor said. "We didn't really know what's going on and it's scary. What's really scary is when it's in your own backyard."

Armed FBI agents in camo, members of the Joint Terrorism Task Force and search dogs remained parked in front of Yetman's home Wednesday night. FBI agents could be seen speaking with people inside Yetman's house.
Neighbor Frank Sanford had the FBI at his door in the morning, asking if he and his wife knew anything.
"It was a little crazy ... My wife called me ... said, 'I don't know what's going on, SWAT vehicle and this vehicle and dogs,'" he said.
The FBI is also using... tanks? That wouldn't be very surprising, because it's not about reality -- it's about sending a message:
NEW: The FBI is reportedly using tanks to hunt down a J6 protestor in Helmetta, New Jersey.

The incident started after the man, Gregory Yetman, fled his home after the FBI tried serving an arrest warrant thanks to USA Today who exposed him.

USA Today also quoted a resident saying there were tanks being used:
"A situation like this of course brings heightened anxiety — it's not normal to see FBI agents and vehicles and tanks in your community," Slavicek said. "You never think something like this will happen in your own backyard."

Violent Portland Antifa member Amanda Marie Lundbom, who runs @SnackMamas, a group that gave rioters material aid in the 2020 BLM-Antifa riots, was arrested on Nov. 6 for multiple violent felonies including burglary and assault. She quickly bailed out. She has another open case… https://t.co/zny8fvo4NC pic.twitter.com/8qNqvwt9pg

Yet they are sending tanks and federal agents to find somebody involved in the January 6 protest?? There clearly has never been more of a two-tiered justice system than has played out over the last few years.

Yep, the feds sure do have their "priorities."
They will not rest until every person wearing a MAGA hat in the greater DC on Jan. 6 is rounded up and sent to the gulags

That certainly appears to be the case -- and don't forget about monitoring those pesky parents making a stink at school board meetings. All while possible terrorists continue to spill across Biden's open border.
