I’m in @TheHill asking Congress to end @DHSgov’s harmful, broken terrorism prevention grants program. A DHS report justifying the grants misses the mark; our recent study shows DHS uses junk science & targets social views of Americans—including children.1/ thehill.com/opinion/national…

The @DHSgov believes it can identify people who will commit mass violence in the future. But, their vague indicators can be applied to millions of innocent people & instead are often used to target minority communities. @sreynoldsBCJ calls to end TVTP. thehill.com/opinion/national…

We'll be at RightsCon! Join us for our session on CVE to learn about what separates CVE from abolitionist approaches to community safety. Our panel will be from 4:30-5:30 on Tuesday 6/8.

We've said since the start of the Countering Violent Extremism framework that it will target Muslims first and impact communities of color and movements for justice broadly. We're currently pushing to defund the DHS flagship CVE program (renamed CP3) with @stopcve coalition.

CVE relies on a noxious mix of pseudoscience and DHS mission creep, which leads to the profiling and surveillance of people with mental illnesses, Muslims, and other marginalized groups. rightsdissent.substack.com/p…

A new @BrennanCenter study of biased, ineffective @DHSgov targeted violence and terrorism prevention (TVTP) grants finds broken promises & ineffective methods: targeting marginalized communities, surveillance of common behaviors, and reliance on police. 1/ brennancenter.org/our-work/r…

CP3 and TVTP rely on debunked radicalization theory to profile people based on commonly held beliefs and behaviors. It's time to end this political surveillance and targeting of marginalized communities. We sent a letter to the appropriators: brennancenter.org/sites/defa…

CP3 and its flagship grant program TVTP rely on pseudoscience to target our communities and profile people based on common behaviors, political beliefs, and marginalized identities. Enough is enough. We sent a letter telling Congress: no funding for CVE! brennancenter.org/sites/defa…

When children are referred to Prevent, their data is stored across at least 10 police databases even where no further action has been decided by Prevent officers themselves.

At the @gwupoe event, Rashad Ali is claiming that critics of Prevent are ideologically aligned with the extremists. Yet another example of criticism being invoked as a warning sign for terrorism. CVE shuts down speech.

Domestic terrorism charges are an intimidation tactic used in the state crackdown against Cop City protesters. These charges have serious procedural problems and represent a continuation of the "Green Scare" conflating environmental activism with terrorism. A thread:

If it's surprising, think about the purpose & function of DHS. This isn't "extreme" but quite aligned w/ the racist, Islamophobic, and xenophobic mandate of the dept and we have to stop clamoring for DHS (or any law enforcement) to address white supremacy pogo.org/investigation/2022/…
