I want to draw your attention to one of the most chilling revelations yet from the Trump regime. I am referring to a document called National Security Presidential Memorandum-7, or NSPM-7. Most mainstream outlets either ignored it or dismissed it as one of Trump’s many executive orders. But as journalist Ken Klippenstein’s reporting shows, this is something far more dangerous. Ken has been leading the way in reporting on this directive, so I had to chat with him to learn what he has uncovered.
Unlike executive orders, which are public and typically govern daily administrative actions, a National Security Presidential Memorandum is a top-level directive used to coordinate military, intelligence, and law enforcement strategy. NSPM-7, signed quietly in the Oval Office, effectively redefines dissent as domestic terrorism.
The document identifies “anti-Americanism,” “anti-Christianity,” and “anti-capitalism” opinions, along with “hostility towards those who hold traditional American views on family, religion, or morality,” as indicators of potential radicalism. In practice, that means anyone who disagrees with Trump’s regime or participates in peaceful protests like the No Kings demonstrations could be treated as a terrorist threat.
Klippenstein discovered that a “Threat Screening Center” has been established in a secretive Northern Virginia office complex, just seven miles from CIA headquarters, to compile watchlists of Americans who meet these new “terrorism indicators.” According to his reporting, staff there are analyzing social media posts, podcasts, and even public speeches to identify individuals considered “anti-Christian” or “anti-capitalist.”
As Klippenstein explained on The MeidasTouch Network, this memorandum is not symbolic. It’s a sweeping, classified policy document directing the entire federal apparatus, including the FBI, DHS, the Treasury Department, and others, to prioritize cases built around these ideological “indicators.” This isn’t day-to-day governance. Klippenstein told me, “This is the strategy document telling them, ‘Hey, guys, this is what we’re going to be about for the next three years.’”
The effects are already visible. Attorney General Pam Bondi cited NSPM-7 when creating an “anti-ICE crimes task force” to protect Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers from “left-wing extremists.” The Department of Treasury has reportedly begun auditing nonprofits and advocacy groups flagged as potentially supporting “anti-American” movements, leading major law firms to warn clients to “self-censor” in order to avoid scrutiny.
Even more alarming is how openly the Trump regime is framing this. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem compared “Antifa” to ISIS, despite Trump’s own former FBI director, Christopher Wray, affirming that Antifa is not an organized entity. Speaker Mike Johnson and other top Republicans have begun referring to the No Kings protests as “pro-Hamas” and “anti-American,” echoing the very language enshrined in NSPM-7.
When Trump and his enablers talk about “restoring order,” this is what they mean: weaponizing the full counterterrorism powers of the federal government, once used against Al-Qaeda, against American citizens who dare to disagree.
This is not about national security. It’s about silencing opposition, dissent, and rewriting the definition of patriotism itself. And as with so much in Trump’s America, it’s happening in plain sight, disguised by bureaucratic jargon, media fatigue, and willful ignorance from those who should know better. And as of now, the corporate media has largely ignored this story.
The question now isn’t whether NSPM-7 will be used. It’s how far the Trump regime will go. Watch my interview with Ken above. Read his original reporting on his Substack, here. And remember to add the MeidasTouch Podcast on Apple Podcasts and Spotify for more interviews and reports.
