What agency(s) would be involved if there’s the possibility of domestic terrorism?
Homeland Security (http://www.dhs.gov/), if this is happening nowadays.
What agency might be funding him to begin with?
it probably depends on what sort of “use” the kids are being trained for, but roughly it would break down to the following:
some subdivision of the State Department (http://www.state.gov/) if the kids are being trained as spies/diplomats (or other uses involving foreign countries)
some subdivision of the Department of Defense (http://www.defenselink.mil/) if the kids are going to be an arm of the military
if they’re going to be Federal-level law enforcement (Secret Service (http://www.secretservice.gov/), U.S. Marshals (http://www.usmarshals.gov/), BATF (http://www.atf.treas.gov/) etc.), they’re part of the Treasury Department (http://www.ustreas.gov/).
but given that this is all shadowy and, i can’t help but think that the funding for this research must be being channeled through DARPA (http://www.darpa.mil/), since that’s basically the government agency in charge of Mad Science.
