A leaked memo by U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi directs the Justice Department and FBI to compile a list of groups that may be labeled “domestic terrorism” organizations based on political views related to immigration, gender and U.S. policy. The memo was obtained by independent investigative journalist Ken Klippenstein, who joins us to discuss how it expands on President Donald Trump’s NSPM-7…

The largest untapped market in the country: people who dislike trump. It’s genius

Fuck off fascists. You gonna arrest 70% of this country??? Even your own “side” is turning on you. “My groceries are too high.” <-- that is anti-PEDOnald. “I don’t like child rapists.” <— that is anti-PEDOnald.
Trump is the weakest snowflake in the world.
STRAIGHT TO PRISON!
Amerikkka, now with thoughtcrime.
Democrats really dropped when the ball when they voted for wet-noodle establishment candidates over progressives like Bernie Sanders.
But hey, at least they don’t have to pay more in taxes!
It’s funny because in the early 00s I worked for a gay rights organization and was told pretty flat out, the FBI keeps at least a list with my name on it, if not my own file (holdover from the civil rights era when they did this to all progressive groups). And then Obama came along and we thought a new era was being ushered in. And now in 2025 I run a gay nonprofit and probably have an FBI file again. Oh well, means I’m doing something right, fuck 'em.
I got permabanned from Reddit during the February bloodbath, after 12 years and nearly a million Karma, all while ferociously attacking Republicans, MAGA, and especially Trump, who I always referred to as HitlerPig.
I’m sure Spez turned over ALL the files to DOGE like a good little minion, so they’ve got a nice fat file of ThoughtCrimes® on me.
I just saw that he’s married to Serena Williams, so I now hate her, too.
got to admit, obama played us good. campaign of Hope and Change followed by 8 years of the same tired old playbook
Not me. When he took that stage in that stadium with his family after his election, to a cheering, adoring crowd, and the TV talking heads going on about Hope & Change, I knew he was going to be one more placeholder Democrat, who will last long enough for everyone to forget what shitheads Conservatives are, and allow them back in power to continue their rampage of destruction. That’s all Carter, Clinton, and Biden were, too. There hasn’t been an effective Democratic president since LBJ.
But they’re the lesser of two evils.
My favorite thing about Lemmy is people are willing to make accurate criticisms about Obama and his policies instead of simping for him because he’s charasmatic and a Democrat.
There’s a weird disconnect between the left and the right where MAGA especially is so slavishly cultish that their guys can do no wrong. Whereas on the left, we generally have the critical thinking skills to admit that our guys aren’t always doing the right thing.
It really depends on what you consider a leftist. People on Reddit would call themselves “the left” and act like Obama is flawless and accuse you of being a maga if you feel otherwise.
our guys aren’t always doing the right thing.
The extreme of that being single-issue voters?
annoying part is you can see they’re setting up the same shit with Newscom/Pritzker
make some big publicity stunts on tv talking a big game, doing these cute little marches, all while greenlighting ICE to harass their surrounding poor neighborhoods long as they stay out of their donor neighborhoods
No politician should be simped for.
Unfortunately, simping has proven to be very effective :(
Yeah turning politics into a fandom changed the game for the worst in a lot of ways
Now that politics is a team sport, what’s the over/under on how long it takes to legalize gambling on politics? I’m sure the gambling apps are lobbying for that right now.
That shouldn’t fuck up anything, right? Nobody could be bribed to throw a race could they?
Arguably campaign contributions already count as half bet half bribe
We did get the ACA, so it wasn’t all for nothing.
He also had the Republicans fighting so hard against him that they were torpedoing their own bills just because he agreed with them.
Before Trump, the actual powers of the presidency were pretty limited as far as actual policy changes.
the ACA was a corporate wet dream. clearly bought and paid for just like our federal student loan system…just look at their profit margins after it was passed.
The original one wasn’t. Once the Republicans got their fingers in it, it became one.
lol, and it passed with 1 dem flipping, how convenient.
it’s all a circus to these cunts mate, establishment dems are and always have been controlled opposition.
the original was never meant to pass, it was meant to allow dems to shrug their shoulders and go “well, we tried” before giving their donors what they paid for
Ding. Ding. Ding. We. Have. A. Winner.
JFC, it’s so obvious.
It’s still not something Obama had control over.
Democrats have been getting played since Clinton.
They literally never learn.
Tired old playbook? The playbook has been rewritten and it’s worse
it’s the same playbook, they just upped their PR game.
and probably have an FBI file again.
I doubt you’ve ever stopped having one.
Thank you. Thanks for sharing this “seen that, didn’t care then, didn’t care now” attitude. This is the way you fight and dispell the stochastic terrorism behind this “leak.”
Dance, be freaky, don’t let the man get in your head.
They are worried that you are trying to turn the FBI gay.
Being a progressive activist is one of the most dangerous jobs in the world.
Username checks out, 5/5
someone should take one for the team and form an alternative socialist government of the united states as a micronation. seriously!
This pathetic POS needs to face the harshest punishment allowed for what he has not only done to little kids but to the entire world.
He won’t. He’ll die of old age after the best medical care in the world exhausts all options to keep him alive.
The best we can hope for is a stroke to give him locked in syndrome so he can experience a narcissist’s hell for a few years first.
Chin up, theres a non-zero chance he will die in his piss while hearing his sycophants squabble over his wasting body like Stalin.
here’s hoping he gets the mussolini treatment.
This is the sad truth, even if the democrats and Republicans somehow united and said ‘to hell with this jackass, let’s arrest him and try him properly’ he will probably die before even that trial is complete.
“We’ll get around to the first hearing in about 15 years.” (Gavel pounds)
Donald Trump is such a disgusting criminal individual it isn’t funny. Everything he accuses his enemies of he is guilty of himself, including the recent accusations of mortgage fraud.
In his mind rules and laws aren’t for allowing society to function, but as tools to get his enemies in trouble, and at the same none should apply to him.
What the fuck
Reading only the post’s title, my first thought was “hey, I have a truckload of anti-trump thought, where do I get my reward?”
Send the invoice to Soros!
Have a friend working as an AUSA in Texas and he can confirm this letter went out a week ago.
It’s very vaguely and broadly written. Doesn’t do a great deal to identify who or what qualifies. Idk if officials are expected to hit some kind of Antifa Witchhunt quota or if raising a flag just brings a bunch of cheap reactionary heat down on the office itself.
My friend’s Africa American, so he’s not touching the request with a 10’ pole if he can avoid it. Most of his caseload is just meth dealers crossing state lines and interstate wire fraud, so there’s not a ton of Antifa to be found anyway.

I.e. a blank check.
You are free to consider _______________ as domestic terrorists.Sure, in theory. But then you get a glut of responses and have to pick which ones you’d actually care to prosecute.
That’s a bunch of annoying manual work that nobody in Trump’s FBI / DOJ is willing (much less competent) to perform.
I don’t think that’s any better. It creates a situation like “everyone is guilty, we just decide who to prosecute”
It creates a situation where an AG’s office with limited manpower and prosecutorial capacity needs to selectively enforce the law in order to shock the public into general compliance. Less “everyone is guilty” and more “too many people are potentially suspect but only a few of them have cases that could actually hold up in court”.
USAs generally hate trying cases that get tossed out or lose at trial. So they try to focus on cases they know they can win - either because the defendant can’t afford quality legal council or the case is so air-tight that a jury will easily convict. Incompetent USAs can quickly get themselves into a position where a defendant can get top flight defense and the prosecutor has to juggle a bunch of gaping flaws in the case. OJ Simpson is one classic example of such a case. Luigi Mangione may end up being another.
This is some fucked up shit right here. You have your own STASI now in the USA. Congrats on that, fucking morons. 🤣 HOW could you elect this dude TWICE?! You folks are nuttier than nuts.
You’re probably not going to reach a lot of trump supporters here. If you want to talk to the ones reasonable try twitter or Facebook.
Bold to assume most of them are literate.
It should put into perspective just how stupid the average American is.
So how do I cash in my anti Trump thoughts?
Throw in some prayers while you’re at it. I heard they’re also valuable.
Oh lovely, we’re at the “never question the leader” stage.
At least Germany got a WW1 vet. We got a bloated real estate developer.
