"US Law Enforcement Warns of ‘Anti-Tech Extremism’ as AI Hatred Grows

As Americans stew over the looming risk of job-stealing AI and data centers in their back yards, the feds are raising the alarm about a new category of threat, documents obtained by WIRED show.

IN THE WAKE of attacks on CEOs, a nationwide protest movement targeting data centers, and increasing concerns about AI job replacement, federal intelligence agencies and domestic law enforcement are circulating reports with a new domestic target in mind: anti-technology extremists.

Taken together, these Trump administration directives have commandeered the domestic surveillance apparatus to surveil and criminalize speech and assembly that challenges the ideology of the White House. A new focus on anti-technology extremism adds an unreported category to already public designations under a presidency that has heavily invested political and material capital in AI and data center proliferation."

"Gorka Fumes Against the Left in New Counterterrorism Strategy

The strategy names three groups as the main terrorist threats to the United States: drug cartels and gangs, 'Legacy Islamic Terrorists,' and left-wing radicals, including 'anarchists and anti-fascists.'

It’s the latest example of the Trump administration sweeping relatively anodyne left-wing political views into a broader definition of domestic terrorism. In National Security Presidential Memorandum 7 (NSPM-7), the White House told federal law enforcement to prioritize those with views including 'anti-Americanism, anti-capitalism, and anti-Christianity' in investigating domestic terrorism cases. That has been operationalized, TPM exclusively reported, via material support for terrorism cases brought against leftists accused of criminal wrongdoing in prosecutions nationwide.

The new counterterrorism strategy released Wednesday echoed NSPM-7’s terminology and broad folding of disfavored political views into potential threats."

Counterterrorism Czar’s Blueprint Targets Leftists, Ignores Far-Right Violence and Heaps Praise on Trump

Sebastian Gorka’s anti-terror plan makes no mention of long-established threats posed by far-right militants and instead villainizes the president’s political enemies. “This administration is not paying attention to the data,” one expert said.

"Seb Gorka Orders Europe to Harbo[u]r His Kind of Terrorists

The Trump White House released the counterterrorism strategy authored by far right extremist Seb Gorka the other day.

You’ll be unsurprised that Seb refuses to protect America from the far right terrorist threat, instead choosing to focus on the imaginary Antifa threat and to waste CT resources murderboating fisherman labeled as narcoterrorists.

Aside from sheer dangerousness, Seb’s exclusion of far right terrorists is especially curious given that DOJ just invoked the CIPA process (reflecting the existence of classified evidence, and by extension a foreign nexus) in the case of white supremacist Payton Gendron who, in 2022, murdered 11 people in Buffalo.)

The far right Hungarian-American Seb spews racist rants for four paragraphs, which rant he only interrupts with a claim that Europe has dispensed with 'traditional principles of freedom of speech.'
Then he lays out his demands and insinuations. The US has 'expertise,' says the guy who claims Antifa is a thing, even a transnational thing. But they’ll only share it (and actionable intelligence, including actionable intelligence about may or may not include Russian, as well as Iranian, sabotage) with those 'serious' partners who 'understand' that Antifa, but not the far right, is a threat."

Seb Gorka Orders Europe to Harbo[u]r His Kind of Terrorists - emptywheel

Seb Gorka's attack on Europe for not defending what he calls freedom of speech, appearing in a counterterrorism policy that refuses to defend against terrorists whose ideology he shares, is a demand that Europe harbor his kind of terrorism.

“'Counterterrorism' Now Officially Means Targeting Trans People

The White House will prioritize the 'neutralization' of groups it considers 'anti-American, radically pro-transgender, and anarchist.'

On Wednesday, the White House released a new 'United States Counterterrorism Strategy,' the first such directive since a 2021 Biden-era memo emphasizing the need to combat white supremacist violence, which has now been scrubbed from the White House website.

Wednesday’s document, masterminded by White House 'counterterrorism czar' Sebastian Gorka, does not mention far-right violence at all. It identifies 'Violent Left-Wing Extremists, including Anarchists and Anti-Fascists' as a security threat of equal severity to 'Legacy Islamist Terrorists' and 'Narcoterrorists and Transnational Gangs.' The administration will now apparently 'prioritize the rapid identification and neutralization of violent secular political groups whose ideology is anti-American, radically pro-transgender, and anarchist.'

In a bizarre but familiar turn, the document also blames transgender people for the shooting of Charlie Kirk. 'Americans have witnessed the politically motivated killings of Christians and conservatives committed by violent left-wing extremists, including the assassination of Charlie Kirk by a radical who espoused extreme transgender ideologies.'

(. . .)

Counterterrorism itself is a politicized term that came into common use following the September 11 attacks and the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq. It formed part of the language of the policing apparatus that targeted Muslim and Arab Americans and legitimized surveillance of those communities as 'terrorist threats.' That same language is now being applied to transgender people.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has called Kirk’s death a 'domestic 9/11.' The Heritage Foundation, too, has done its best to connect being transgender with the idea of terrorism, campaigning last year for the FBI to designate trans advocacy as violent extremism.

'We will…identify their membership, map their ties to international organizations like Antifa, and use law enforcement tools to cripple them operationally,' the document says."

#Gorka report for #Trump admin: migration has made Europe an ‘incubator’ for terrorism in a new counter-terrorism strategy

“The strategy focuses on rooting out “violent left-wing extremists” including “radically pro-transgender” groups, as Trump’s admin steps up its political attacks.

It also places drug cartels in the Americas at the centre of counter-terrorism efforts.”

Damning —
"Increasingly, journalists are pushing back against attacks on our credibility by 'showing the work,' guiding readers through the reporting process to dispel myths and foster transparency. In that spirit, I wanted to take this opportunity to show how basic beat reporting — fact-checking the assertions of a powerful figure — led to a broader story about the state of the U.S. counterterrorism mission at a critical moment."

The Skinny is a cleaned up collection of my Fediverse blog posts; this time from April 16th to April 19th. Topics explored include Trump's ICE Gestapo, the anti-trans pogrom, signs that a Christian Nationalist purge is brewing in the Trump administration, Broligarchs, and why Seb Gorka just implied half the country are aiding and abetting terrorists by fighting back against the Trump agenda.

"As such, it should absolutely alarm you when Seb Gorka goes on TV to repeat and reinforce the US government’s fact-free claim that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is literally a “terrorist,” and starts characterizing people who oppose Trump’s illegal “deportation” of Garcia as folks potentially “aiding and abetting” terrorists; because again, for some mysterious reason (they’re all nazis too) the Trump regime gave this disgraced War on Terror-era reject authority over protecting America from whoever the hell the regime says are “terrorists” apparently. How Gorka finds the time to do so amid his typically busy day of doing Islambophia, warmongering, and spreading fascist ideology, remains a mystery."
