Trump Administration Redefines Terrorism to Target Trans-Related Incidents

Understand how the Trump administration weaponizes new terror designations, like 'Nihilistic Violent Extremists,' to obscure data and target marginalized communities.

Short Summary

  • The administration links trans-related violence to new categories like 'Nihilistic Violent Extremists' to hide statistical trends from Congress.
  • Law enforcement officials are reportedly convinced by manufactured narratives connecting trans issues with adversarial political groups like Antifa (dubbed 'Trantifa').
  • Designations, even if having limited explicit legal grounding, redirect agency resources and create investigative priorities detrimental to civil liberties.

Investigative journalist Ken Klippenstein details the Trump administration’s systematic effort to rewrite security definitions following high-profile events. This analysis explains why these politically motivated bureaucratic shifts pose a significant threat to civil rights by repurposing counter-terrorism tools domestically.

When Benny Johnson said this at Charlie Kirk's funeral ... _"God saved our President, President Trump, from an assassins bullet for this moment"_ was he implying that God had no use for Charlie Kirk, so he let him die?

We got Antifa classified as a domestic terror organization before the proud boys or the ku klux klan. Country is a joke.

It's crazy how the GOP seemed okay with holding up Caitlyn Jenner as their "token trans," until she outlived her usefulness and got thrown under the bus with the rest of Trump's discarded former "friends."

The utter stupidity of the conversation is we are talking about "trans mass shooters" after yet another young white male allegedly shot someone and we refuse to address who actually is doing mass shootings...

This administration can't investigate _real_ crimes, because then they would run out of people to hire to staff it.
