The Trump Memo Blurring Protest and Terrorism

In late September, President Donald Trump issued National Security Presidential Memorandum 7 (NSPM-7) — a sweeping directive ordering federal agencies to target what it calls “domestic terrorism” linked to so-called anti-fascist movements. Citing incidents like the assassination of Charlie Kirk and riots in Los Angeles and Portland, the memo instructs law enforcement to investigate “anti-American,” “anti-capitalist,” and “anti-Christian” ideologies — while omitting far-right violence entirely.

Chris Cuomo breaks down why NSPM-7 may be the most alarming policy yet of Trump’s presidency: how it redefines dissent as extremism, blurs the line between free speech and criminal intent, and expands federal power to police ideas instead of actions."
