60-Second Summary

President Trump has signed a memorandum to establish a comprehensive strategy against "radical leftwing domestic terror networks." The initiative aims to investigate and dismantle organized political violence and domestic terrorism, targeting funders of these groups. Critics, however, view it as a potential tool for cracking down on political opponents. The memorandum comes after recent incidents including an ICE facility attack and the murder of a far-right pundit, with the administration linking these to leftwing extremism despite evidence to the contrary.
