Trump has signed a little-noticed national security directive identifying
“anti-Christian” and “anti-American” views as
indicators of radical left violence.
Called National Security Presidential Memorandum 7,
it’s being referred to as “NSPM-7” by administration insiders.
“This is the first time in American history that there is an
all-of-government effort to dismantle left wing terrorism,”
Trump’s homeland security advisor Stephen Miller said,
referring to the issuance.
To the extent that the major media noticed the directive at all, they (even C-SPAN!) incorrectly labeled it an “executive order,”
like this week’s designation of “Antifa” as a domestic terrorist organization.
👉 It’s hard to overstate how much different NSPM-7 is from the over 200 executive orders Trump has frantically signed since coming back into office.
An executive order publicly lays out the course of day-to-day federal government operations;
⭐️whereas a national security directive is a sweeping policy decree for the defense, foreign policy, intelligence, and law enforcement apparatus.
National security directives are often secret, but in this case the Trump administration chose to publish NSPM-7
— only the seventh since he’s come into office.
President George W. Bush signed a series of classified national security directives after 9/11,
the most famous of which authorized NSA’s unlawful domestic intercepts,
a directive that wasn’t publicly revealed until four years later.
In NSPM-7,
“Countering Domestic Terrorism and Organized Political Violence,” Trump directs the Justice Department, the FBI, and other national security agencies and departments to fight his version of political violence in America,
retooling a network of Joint Terrorism Task Forces to focus on
“leftist” political violence in America.
This vast counterterrorism army, made up of federal, state, and local agents would,
as Trump aide Stephen Miller said,
form “the central hub of that effort.”
NSPM-7 directs a new national strategy to “disrupt” any individual or groups
“that foment political violence,”
🔥including “before they result in violent political acts.”
In other words, they’re targeting 💥pre-crime,
to reference Minority Report.
The Trump administration isn’t only targeting organizations or groups
but even individuals and “entities” whom NSPM-7 says can be identified by any of the following “indicia” (indicators) of violence:
anti-Americanism,
anti-capitalism,
anti-Christianity,
support for the overthrow of the United States Government,
extremism on migration,
extremism on race,
extremism on gender
hostility towards those who hold traditional American views on family,
hostility towards those who hold traditional American views on religion, and
hostility towards those who hold traditional American views on morality.
