John,

We wanted to be sure you saw Max’s recent op-ed in Newsweek on domestic terrorism, in which he explains the need for the US to move away from designating white supremacist terrorism as only a national issue when it is in fact a global problem.

Thank you,

Team Rose

Here are a few excerpts from the piece:

“When it comes to domestic terrorism—white extremist terrorism in particular—policymakers, law enforcement and the general public have shown themselves to have a serious blind spot: the fact that homegrown domestic terrorism in the U.S. is deeply interwoven with a global network of white supremacist terrorist activity.

“Numerous U.S.-based organizations within this network, including the Base and the Proud Boys, have already been designated as Terrorist Organizations by allies such as Canada, the United Kingdom, and Australia…The Biden administration should build upon Canada and the United Kingdom's leadership and designate globally active U.S.-based white supremacy extremist groups as Foreign Terrorist Organizations. We are woefully behind our peers, and our ability to track, mitigate, and punish potential attacks is inexcusably hindered.”

“U.S. Department of State and Treasury systematically designating transnational white supremacist extremist organizations as FTOs would instantly unlock critical tools in the fight against domestic terrorism. The designations would hinder the travel of terrorists to the United States, criminalize support to designated groups, block movement of assets to designated groups, and allow for the U.S. Department of Justice to prosecute individuals for providing material support to designated groups.” “There is no longer an easy dividing line between foreign and domestic terrorism. It is a sad feature of our world that the worst among us inspire and support one another. To cut the head off a snake that is coiled at the necks of minorities at home and abroad, we need to reframe and designate globally active white supremacist groups as foreign terrorist threats.”
