The NTIC is a fusion center in DC that works with the US Department of Homeland Security and other federal authorities to conduct “regional analysis and share information on terrorism, crime, and natural hazards.”
“Recent events indicate violent adherents of the boogaloo ideology likely reside in the National Capital Region, and others may be willing to travel far distances to incite civil unrest of conduct violence encouraged in online forums associated with the movement,” the NTIC’s assessment said, according to Politico.
On Friday, the outlet reported, the DHS published its own intelligence note with a similar conclusion.
The note said that “domestic terrorists advocating for the boogaloo very likely will take advantage of any regional or national situation involving heightened fear and tensions to promote their violent extremist ideology and call supporters to action.”
