Right now they only do this to leftists, black people, and to some extent queer people. And nowhere near the amount they did it during the Cold war. They're gonna expand that to libs, progressive, and probably increase their efforts against other groups.

But the thing is, you're right in a different way. This isn't them exposing their plans, this is them getting ready to take a victory lap. The hard work has been done. They've been doing it since Nixon at least. The Democrats had plenty of opportunities to stop this, but that would've required them admitting something they can't admit: that bourgeoisie democracy and capitalism don't work. Even if some mean well as politicians, they can't do anything truly meaningful to stop it, or else the oligarchs that run the country will retract funding and fund your opponents.
