Dear John,

On September 25, Donald Trump signed a presidential order called NSPM-7, a sweeping attack on free speech that targets progressive organizations and individuals for prosecution for “domestic terrorism.”

And now, the first arrests linked to NSPM-7 have begun, including multiple people attending a peaceful protest outside an ICE detention facility near Chicago.

Under NSPM-7, anyone who holds virtually any vaguely left-of-center political views is now considered a target for federal prosecution. Simply holding a protest sign or posting on Facebook could be enough to get a knock on the door from the FBI.

This should be on the front page of every newspaper in the country, but other than the coverage of a few independent journalists, it’s almost totally flying under the radar.

That stops now. Inequality Media Civic Action is sounding the alarm and urging Congress to take action now to stop implementation of NSPM-7, and I’m asking you to help power this campaign by making a monthly donation to Inequality Media Civic Action today.

NSPM-7, or Trump’s National Security Presidential Memo #7, categorizes a sweeping range of commonly held political beliefs as signs of “domestic terrorism” and directs the federal law enforcement to investigate and disrupt organizations and individuals who espouse such views.

What are these ideas that are so dangerous that they can be directly linked to terrorism? The list includes such vague concepts as “anti-capitalism,” “anti-Christianity,” “extremism on migration, race, and gender,” and opposition to “traditional American views on family, religion, and morality.”

That could mean practically anything. And that’s the point.

Inequality Media Civic Action is alerting our 10 million followers across social media about NSPM-7 and demanding that Congress take action to stop these abuses — and we’re counting on your support to help fund our efforts.
