It creates a national strategy to investigate, prosecute, and dismantle organized political violence and domestic terrorism, identifying indicators of a potential domestic terrorist as the expression of “anti-Christian” or “anti-capitalism” or “anti-American” views. NSPM-7 directs the federal government to disrupt groups “before” they result in violent political acts. In other words, pre-crime.

So anyone who's not a Christian capitalist is considered a potential terrorist in the USA now. What a country.

How many people will be called terrorists before some of them actually say "fuck it" and live up to the label?

I think CPAC encouraged everyone to be a domestic terrorist - maybe their membership would be a good jumping off point.

If you create enough chaos anything is possible

I keep saying: Democrats were perfectly fine with a President Trump both times. They didn't fight him nearly as hard as they fought Bernie Sanders and now Zohran Mamdani

that's funny. I clearly remember a loud quantity of independent voters bemoaning about Jill Stein and Israel.

remind me again... who did they vote for?

oh right... they threw their votes away.

Two thirds of eligible voters didn't vote for Harris. This obsession with a tiny sliver that were protesting genocide is more telling about you than them.

Way to not address my point at all

If you don't live by Christ's teachings you are not christian.
