Welcome back to Free Speech Friday!
Recently, Trump signed a little-noticed national security directive identifying a slew of views like âanti-Christianâ and âanti-Americanâ beliefs as indicators of "radical left violence" and terrorism. The directive is called NSPM-7.
NSPM-7carries serious implications for freedom of speech and opens the door to dangerous levels of censorship. In NSPM-7, Trump directs the Justice Department, the FBI, and other national security agencies to fight his version of political violence, retooling a network of Joint Terrorism Task Forces to focus on âleftistâ political violence in America.
Ken Klippenstein has been covering all this. He joined me today to break down NSPM-7 and what it means for speech in America. Under the new directive, anyone expressing views that could be construed as any of the following, could be classified by the government as a terrorist:
1. anti-Americanism,
2. anti-capitalism,
3. anti-Christianity,
4. support for the overthrow of the United States Government,
5. extremism on migration,
6. extremism on race,
7. extremism on gender
8. hostility towards those who hold traditional American views on family,
9. hostility towards those who hold traditional American views on religion, and
10. hostility towards those who hold traditional American views on morality.
