The FBI created a “threat tag” over alleged menacing statements made against school administrators and teachers in accordance with a memo issued by the Justice Department, an internal email showed.
The email, dated Oct. 20, was released Tuesday by House Judiciary Committee Republicans, who said the missive was proof that federal counterterrorism was being deployed against “concerned parents” at school board meetings.
The email, which House Republicans said came from a whistleblower, showed the creation of the tag “EDUOFFICIALS” to track related threats.
