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.”

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.

I guess we'll just take the Dems approach, sit back and let the USA implode itself.

The 7-stage collapse pattern.

According to the video, and he makes a good case for it, the U.S. is already at stage 5.

  • "Freedom is the sovereign right of every American."
  • "Embrace democracy, or you will be eradicated."
  • "Democracy is non-negotiable." Liberty prime quotes

Both words have impossible definitions.

While Capitalism is essentially Oligarchist, Capital, Corporatist supremacism in modern definition/understanding, Adam Smith presented an ideal of free and fair markets leading to "perfect competition", essentially guaranteeing a fair return on capital instead of supremacist extortion power.

America as symbol of freedom and melting pot, would consider it anti-american to gaslight fascism and genocide as "America". Are other war and anti-human values, really American values?

NSPM-7's "anti Christian" edicts is also worthless, in that Zionazi supremacism has become Christofascist gaslighting of Christians. "Do onto others as you would like done onto you" (best interpretation is humanist freedom rather than a hierarchical charity empire) is a direct contradiction of supremacist fascism/pride.

Of course, the purpose of vague edicts is to kill/emprison/disenfranchise those who Charlie Kirk/Trump would want killed/emprisoned. Criticizing unfair monopoly power strengthening, fascism, or war or Trump is a violation.

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

If you see people refer to themselves as part of “group 7” it’s because they are included in th NSPM-7 dragnet

[–] Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works 2 points 5 days ago
