Eugene Daniels: Trump Is Changing the Definition of Who Is a Domestic Terrorist
EXCERPT:
DANIELS: "I think part of the thing that’s so interesting about how and maybe some of the motivations for this administration, when you heard from Kash Patel, 'What it’s going to take to bring down this network of organized criminal thugs, gangbangers, and yes, domestic terrorists,' changing the definition of of who is a domestic terrorist, right? You remember that tweet from I think it was Stephen Miller talking about basically like, all these left-wing groups are domestic terrorists because the administration doesn’t like the kinds of things that they stand for. Changing that definition means that a lot of people get caught up into that, right? You look at ActBlue, you look at what’s happening with the Southern Poverty Law Center, over and over, what we are seeing with this administration is them changing definitions that have long been held and have a legal definition. Like, domestic terrorism is — there’s like a legal way that people think about these kinds of things. It’s not just a term. And at the end of the day, I think folks should be very concerned about this because I don’t know — I don’t know about y’all, but I do not fully trust this administration to only focus on dangerous leftists, right?”
