The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Another article about the memo:

The memorandum directs the National Joint Terrorism Task Force, which is part of the FBI, to “coordinate and supervise a comprehensive national strategy to investigate, prosecute, and disrupt entities and individuals engaged in acts of political violence and intimidation.”

It further states that the Terrorism Task Force should investigate “institutional and individual funders, and officers and employees of organizations” who “aid and abet” targeted groups. The Treasury Department, Internal Revenue Service and other federal law enforcement agencies also would participate in investigations, and Attorney General Pam Bondi is directed to submit a list of groups to classify as domestic terrorist organizations.

In signing the memorandum, Trump mentioned two major liberal donors who could come under scrutiny, George Soros and Reid Hoffman. Soros is a "likely candidate" for investigation, Trump said.

"Could be a lot of people," the president said, adding: "If they are funding these things they're going to have some problems, because they're agitators and they're anarchists."

As noted, the recent incidents did nothing but advance the police state.

What would be fun, would be to compare the regime's enemy's list, with the Southern Poverty Law Center's list of hate groups. Bet there would not be much crossover.

Glad I never, ever, donated to "Move On", or the ACLU, or Amnesty International, or the Democratic party, or any Democratic candidate. We old phartz remember when Bush Sr waggled his finger at Dukakis and accused him of being a "card carrying member of the ACLU". I just hope I drop out of the MSF's mailing list before the regime starts serving subpoenas for donor lists.

Steve...praise Trump, praise Trump, praise Trump
