“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,

Elon Musk’s America PAC has dropped $100 million to support the GOP
in critical races that could control the future of the Senate.
It includes TV commercials, digital ads, and a social media blitz across platforms Musk owns and platforms he doesn’t.
The eleventh-hour push is a brazen attempt to stoke the anti-trans moral panic and turn equal rights for transgender people into a make-or-break campaign issue.
“The PAC’s emphasis on trans issues is striking because that’…

The report also adds new ambiguous justification for FBI action such as “making claims” against business or governments.

Americans are neither as hostile to socialism as they once were
nor as positive toward capitalism as they have been in the past.
More important than polling, however, is the fact that for many Americans the “communist threat” is a total abstraction.
There are tens of millions of voters (
who were young children when the Soviet Union fell.
There are millions more who weren’t yet born.
For these Americans, communism is as much a concern as the missile gap …
