ï‚· Domestic terrorism poses a persistent and varied threat to the State of Texas. There are
three overall types of domestic terrorism: racially motivated, anti-government, and single issue.

ï‚· Based on the prevalence of recently conducted attacks nationwide, White Racially
Motivated (WRM) is currently the most violently active domestic terrorism type. Since
2018, WRM actors were responsible for at least three major attacks in the United States
(including one in Texas), and several thwarted incidents. This activity outnumbered the other
domestic terrorism types. While other types of domestic terrorism have shown threatening and
forceful behavior, the loss of life from recent WRM attacks elevates the nature of this specific
threat.

ï‚· Digital media both facilitates radicalization/recruitment, inspiration, and
communication between domestic actors, and allows greater involvement by international
elements in domestic terrorism. Digital media platforms are powerful tools domestic terrorists
use to spread their message to a wide audience. These platforms allow global opportunities to
post manifestos, live stream attacks, and seek inspiration. They also provide opportunities for
actors with similar beliefs to communicate internationally. A number of recent events highlight a
trend of U.S. domestic terrorists seeking inspiration or training from foreign actors, and foreignbased individuals in turn finding inspiration in attacks occurring in the United States.
Interesting, I would’ve expected cross border drug trafficking organizations as the most serious threat. TX DPS knows their stuff and I have zero doubt they can handle whatever they find in the pipeline.

Agreed. With all the anti-immigrant rhetoric, Texas created home cooked terrorists that are the most dangerous.

Although the catch-all heading Black Racially Motivated acts are listed, the group BLM is not listed as a terrorist group.
