The FBI’s domestic terrorism watchlist is set to double in the coming months, according to journalist Ken Klippenstein, who has been reporting on President Trump’s National Security Presidential Memorandum titled “Countering Domestic Terrorism and Organized Political Violence,” also known as NSPM-7. The memo identifies potential domestic terrorists as someone expressing “anti-Christian,” “anti-capitalism” or “anti-American” views. Democratic Congressmember Ro Khanna responded on X, writing, “Trump’s NSPM-7 represses freedom of speech & association, investigating any organization with ‘anti-capitalism’ or ‘anti-American’ views. I ran a primary in 2003 against the Patriot Act and war in Iraq. NSPM-7 is a greater infringement on freedoms than the Patriot Act.”

      They use to use “Godless” as a slur. I guess they can’t anymore because they also want to punish people who don’t believe in a god the same way they do.

          No, my point is that they can’t dismiss the “Godless” as the enemy, because that technically includes the other religions. They now need to say “Anti-Christian” to mean the same thing

      So are Native Americans I assume. Not a helluva lot patriotism in the reservations, at least the folks I’ve known. Great folks. Honest opinions on America.

    The USA should hold a 51% stake in every business it subsidizes. Looking at the oil and gas companies.

          I’m trying to be optimistic, but Republicans really seem like they want the USA to be destroyed while they flee to Argentina with all the loot.

            That would at least make some sense, what with all the money sent lately. Weird that Argentina is so popular with fascists as a place to run to.

                  Argentina’s government, particularly under Juan Perón, actively facilitated their escape to avoid prosecution and to benefit from their expertise and resources. He helped create the rat lines for their escape.

    Cool. This will be challenging as unconditional by the end of next week, the challenge will be correct and then this administration can go fuck itself all over again.

    It’s a shame the tax payers are funding this moronic horseshit. Fuck Trump. Fuck MAGA.

      This is a memo, not a law. It will never make it before a judge. Targeted groups won’t be charged, they will instead be detained, possibly indefinitely, but certainly long enough to fuck them up. They will also use this memo to monitor communications, pull financial records and otherwise harass people. They will use the label to force financial institutions to freeze assets.

      But they won’t charge you.

    Capitalism is evil and this government should be disbanded and everyone running it should be in prison at minimum.
