What indicators in NSPM-7 could land you on a domestic watch list built from 9/11 counterterrorism tools now aimed at Americans expressing anti-Americanism, anti-capitalism, or hostility to traditional family values? On this revelatory episode of the Tara Palmeri Show, investigative journalist Ken Klippenstein joins Tara Palmeri to break down National Security Presidential Memorandum 7, a directive posted openly on whitehouse.gov that expands post-9/11 surveillance powers inward. Signed days after designating Antifa a domestic terrorist organization and in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s assassination, NSPM-7 instructs the FBI, DHS, and DOD to treat political dissent as a national security threat. Klippenstein reveals how Joint Terrorism Task Forces are repurposing war-on-terror infrastructure, how the Threat Screening Center is quietly building a domestic watch list, and why arrests without charges are already chilling free speech. From AI-driven social media sweeps to Treasury tracking nonprofit funding, this memo marks an unprecedented pivot of counterterrorism authorities against U.S. citizens. Which part of NSPM-7’s language shocks you most, and who in your life might meet its vague ideological criteria?
