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 ā€œCountering Domestic Terrorism and Organized Political Violence,ā€ also known asĀ NSPM-7. The memo identifies potential domestic terrorists as someone expressing ā€œanti-Christian,ā€ ā€œanti-capitalismā€ or ā€œanti-Americanā€ views. Democratic Congressmember Ro Khanna responded on X, writing, ā€œTrump’sĀ NSPM-7 represses freedom of speech & association, investigating any organization with ā€˜anti-capitalism’ or ā€˜anti-American’ views. I ran a primary in 2003 against the Patriot Act and war in Iraq.Ā NSPM-7 is a greater infringement on freedoms than the Patriot Act.ā€

    That isn’t going to happen.

    The American people are going to have to do this themselves. There’s no one coming to save them.

      America lost in Korea, lost in Vietnam, and lost to goat herders in Afghanistan. But sure, lol.

      Their military is like their healthcare, they spend the most but it’s dogshit. Plus, they are more incompetent then ever.

        Realistically the americans lost in those wars because the presidents at the time actually wanted some kind of spiritual victory rather than just flattening those countries into dust with sustained carpet bombing of any and all artificial structures (At least not the whole country) I doubt Trump would have any issues or even understanding of the consiquences of going full nuclear. The US likely wouldn’t surive the retaliation but neither would anyone else… except New Zealand because everyone forgets them so hard they even get left off maps.
